California Lane Change Live Review

 

From Edmonton, Alberta comes a fresh pop-rock/punk band called California Lane Change. The members of this band are Joey Vos on vocals, Kevin Vos on bass guitar, Kyle Radzick on lead guitar, Steve Chwyl on rhythm, and Tyler Ennis on drums. This group of five young men created an energy-filled atmosphere with the lead singer’s tenor vocals, and the rowdy instrumentals from the rest of the band.

Unfortunately, this review will be quite short, as I showed up when the band only had three songs left. That was my fault.

            California Lane Change had grabbed my attention as soon as I walked in. Their ability to entertain and maintain their tight vocals and instruments was befuddling. The lead singer, Joey, had a stage presence that instantly attracted one’s attention, with his ability to have as much fun on stage as the audience did on the ground. Meanwhile, the instrumentalists played a consistently catchy rhythm that had every one in the mood for dancing. The band played a mixture of covers and original tracks, which made it easy to sing along to. The second from last song that they had performed was their cover of Jimmy Eat World’s “The Middle”. They added their own flavour to it while keeping the original feel to the song. The familiar track had many young adults singing along, and excited screams escaped many of the fans.

 

            With a familiar sound to early pop-punk bands, California Lane Change has what it takes to grab and hold individual’s attention, while maintaining their own unique sound.

 

Rating for California Lane Change: 9/10
