  Vancouver is full of many talented bands and every year Live Acts selects a few to highlight in the Best In Vancouver competition. More of a showcase than a true battle of the bands in essence.

Here's what Danielle Ravenheart had to say about the venue and the incredible performance that these bands put on.  ♪ ♫ ♪   The show on November 2nd at The Commodore Ballroom was truly a night to remember. I had the pleasure to attend as a photographer, reviewer, and super fan of You Me At Six .       The opener for the night was a band called Yours Truly and they had an absolute powerhouse woman leading them. The energy started off high from the get-go, and the kind of performance they put on was one you didn’t want to miss a second of. They were a great choice to open for the next to band, You Me At Six .       This band is one of my personal favourites and they kicked off the night with one of their classics, Room To Breathe . The guys we...

  Support the Scene had the opportunity to send one of our incredibly talented photographers to see Dead Fast, Hab!t, and Off By An Inch on November 9th, at Lana Lou's. Here's what Jason Yen & Chanel Brown had to say about the venue and the incredible performance that these bands put on.  ♪ ♫ ♪ Dead Fast came in hot with a fast tempo and a catchy beat, reminiscent of some of our favorite punk and emo bands of years past. With an intense energy in their songs, and a beat that throws us back to the old underground punk shows, they had the entire crowd moving and bouncing on their feet. The engagement in the crowd was impressive, and everybody appeared to be having a killer time. The whiny edge their vocals took on, felt like home, like the music of our youth shining through. We would highly recommend checking them out at a future show!    Hab!t showed off some incredible energy on stage, and it was well reflected in the crowd. The vocals owned this band, with...

Support the Scene had the opportunity to send one of our incredibly talented photographers to see Bible Girl, Doom Loops, and Kites on Mars on November 8th, at Lana Lou's. Here's what Jade Weekes had to say about the incredible performance that these bands put on.  ♪ ♫ ♪ Bible Girl had their first show at Lana Lou's last night. Their sound was a great mix of indie rock with a touch of shoegaze. Since it was their first show, it was expected to have a couple of flubs but they carried on like the seasoned musicians they are. Many dynamic changes made their set full of unexpected energy bursts, amidst their more low-key overall sound. Keep an eye out for their upcoming single!  ♪ ♫ ♪   Doom Loops brought some tasty piano licks, soaring synths, and catchy vocals; and that was only from ONE of their members! The whole band really had tunes that were full of quirky lyrics and bass lines that made your feet just move on their own. They had great harmonies and really used ...

Support the Scene had the opportunity to send one of our incredibly talented photographers to see Hippie Death Cult on November 2nd, at Green Auto Music . Here's what Danielle Ravenheart had to say about the venue and the incredible performance that HDC put on.  ♪ ♫ ♪      Although I got lost on the way to the show, walking into Green Auto Music felt like entering a tight knit, cozy community. The people there were quite friendly and one of the first things I noticed was their makeshift bar, which included a fridge stacked with an array of drinks both alcoholic and non-alcoholic to choose from. The available merch for purpose was neatly put on display and the area was well-lit.      When the band came on stage, the crowd became immediately hyped. The front row to the stage was pretty packed, and not too long after, people were moving around, headbanging and dancing. Throughout the show, Hippie Death Cult kept the crowd engaged and demonstrated gre...
