Hailing from the small prairie city of Saskatoon, Saskatchewan, the Junior Pantherz are truly in a league of their own. Most bands get discouraged when theyre far from the action of the big cities and bright lights, but this band thrives on breaking down those boundaries and has proven they can accomplish anything they take on. From producing, recording and distributing their own albums, to booking their own tours; this band is the definition of independent.
Formed in 1999, this three-piece indie-rock machine has since released FIVE albums.
With bangs falling in time with the music, heads bobbing with the bass drum and high kicks smashing the cymbals they look to be in fine form to follow in the footsteps of other Canadian indie rock stars. In short, the future looks bright. Sacha Jackson (Chart Magazine)
In the past, the band has played shows with THE PIXIES, MODEST MOUSE, CONSTANTINES and THE DEARS to name a few. They have toured across Canada several times, receiving national radio play and media coverage and gaining new fans along the way.
2007 brings two new JPZ releases - "Rejoice, Remain" - a 10 track album of all new material sure to rock the soul, as well as a special 9 track retrospective limited, hand numbered White 12" LP entitled "Discover Vinyl".
Be sure to watch for the band touring and causing havoc in your neighborhood in Spring 2008.
Until then......
