Roar and the Wolf

About Me

Find Us On Facebook
Roar and the Wolf is an independent Duo from Toronto Ontario and various other places. - but mainly Toronto. (Home base) We are Kristofer Ryken and Laura Aqui and we have been playing music since the minute we weighed more than the instruments that we play - enough so that we could carry them around and not be smushed. and even before that, we carried tunes. you see, drums weigh alot and though the tunes are sometimes heavy, it’s on the soul you see - and in a good way. Us two cats have been playing music together informally for 4 years but finally have put together a formal band. We now spend all the free time between our busy lollygagging/giggling schedule to write and play music together. So listen for yourself, we can’t wait for you to visit the site, and let us know what you think or join the mailing list!! L&K
The best place to buy our cd right now is at CDbaby (click here) or send us a message to find the name of the store in your area (worldwide) that can order it!
