About Me

It is hard being a party rock band. Surely if one could distill the sound that happens between love and heartbreak, high school and home ownership, victory and loss, would it not sound like dancing? It's hard being a party rock band, because sometimes it is hard to party. But we must. We must persevere friends, we simply must.

In 2005, Break Out the Make Out ripped up the Canadian college charts and became a favourite of CBC Radio 3. If you've been wondering what all those dance parties and public displays of affection would lead to, you'll want to ready yourself for the 3rd release from the Maynards: Date and Destroy drops November 18th and will be available through Scratch Distribution.

The Maynards are Heath Matheson (guitar), Kristina Parlee (bass) and Chantal Tardiff (drums).
