SEARCH PARTIES

About Me

"Hip and socially conscious...an irrevocable young coolness that might flourish into the next big thing to come out of Vancouver." -SPIN magazineSee full report...
Dancing in our Debt (pt.1) from Kubababa on Vimeo ."from playing shows in ATM rooms and crowding die-hard music fans into a dressing room at the Kitsilano Showboat last Saturday...Search Parties will rock" - The Courrier"ranging from ambient, experimental country to an upbeat, hyped-up Bruce Springsteen Born to Run sound...they put on a very energetic show and Harlan's concert planning is just what this no-fun-city needs. Keep it coming!"- The Skinny"Search Parties will be joined by 10 other bands playing acoustic sessions...in banks in the Downtown Eastside"-The Vancouver SunSearch Parties was started by Harlan and has had over 11 different members, though we've now found a solid 6. For those of you who've seen us before, our songs are now a lot different. We now have 2 drummers, sax, cello, trumpet, 2 guitars, bass, synth. We try to never play the same set twice. From playing in ATM rooms to baseball diamonds to Richards on Richards to bedrooms to unlocked dressing rooms of public pools , from getting houseless street buskers to play banjo with us on country sets to atmospheric jams to pop noise rock...anything. //////////////////////////////////////////////////////////// //////////////////////////////////////////////////////////// //////////////////////////////////////////////AN HOUR LIKE THIS (7 SONG EP) Recorded by members of The Modernettes and The Pointed Sticks.
