Bio and press
OFFICIAL BIO
Everyone loves an underdog story, and Black Pontiac remains the most exciting next example. The self proclaimed Kings of the Underworld have spent the last several years slowly but surely developing a cult following throughout the Pacific Northwest; organizing, producing and promoting their own shows, tours and music in the spirit of their DIY upbringing. Despite a lack of label support or industry recognition, streaming numbers continue to rise and shows continue to sell out throughout their native province of British Columbia, as their unique brand of ‘Cage the Elephant meets The Clash’ inspired party rock continues to astound, inspire and occasionally offend wherever they go. With new music on the way, the sky remains the limit, and Black Pontiac is ready to fly.
