Artist Bio:

You Say Party! We Say Die! is a dancepunk band which formed in Abbotsford, British Columbia, Canada in 2004. The band consists of Becky Ninkovic (vocals), Krista Loewen (keyboards), Derek Adam (guitar), and Stephen OShea (bass). Drummer Devon Clifford died of a brain hemorrhage on April 18, two days after collapsing on stage during a show in Vancouver. Vancouvers resident dance-punk savants You Say Party! We Say Die! are a catalyst on the edge of a scene brimming towards explosion; hybridized, mechanized, philosophizing machines that have learned self-awareness and found their soul. Self-styled pioneers and genre-warriors alike are noticing that this is a band taking on the world on their own terms. But their relationship might have ended with late night skate park odysseys or the formation of a browbeating bicycle gang had Stephen OShea (bass) not overheard Becky Ninkovic (vocals) singing to herself and asked her to join the band. Time and circumstance have since streamlined You Say Party! We Say Die! into its reigning, laser guided incarnation, an anthemic,stomping, post-everything insistence that If you are doing what you really love then life feels like a party. Dont stop. Do it till it kills you.[Read More]
