there's just too much passion...

About Me

the ripperz have been playing winnipeg and surrounding area steadily for two years now. the last year has seen them independently release a full length album which has been well received by college and main stream radio stations in the city. headlining shows for packed out venues and opening for a wide variety of local and touring acts, the ripperz have honed their skill for live entertainment into something that is worth any show goer's time and money.
