About Me



Killing Independent George is a two-piece outfit from Bradford/Newmarket, Ontario. Tristan once ran for presidancy and lost to a thorn bush due to Kyles ultimate deciding vote. This bush has recently been crowned king and it tore Tristan apart. So much in fact that he wrote a bunch of songs and recruited members to start an indie band in hopes that one day he could be more popular than this bush. Kyle, forced to sign a life-binding document while in his sleep by Tristan and his goons now completed the ultimate crime fighting team. Togeather we will shake the ground on which we walk on, and will rise above it all and set this mighty bush aflame. A new fever is rising...
