Read the "Tow Truck" review in the September issue of Exclaim Magazine

The Perpetrators' latest album, "Tow Truck" just received an A+ review in Uptown Magazine... Read the review


"These guys know what I'm talking about... when we're playing, I can feel the Wolf looking down and smiling."
- Hubert Sumlin, blues legend; long-time Howlin' Wolf guitarist; Jimi Hendrix and Eric Clapton's favorite guitar player

"The Perpetrators have made the blues tent in Canada bigger."
- Shelagh Rogers, host of CBC's Sounds Like Canada

The Perpetrators' passion for the raw ragged edges of rock 'n' roll and blues has earned them a reputation as one of the most electrifying trios touring today. Once a not-so-well-kept secret in their hometown of Winnipeg, Manitoba, Canada - where they acted as house band for visiting blues legends Hubert Sumlin, Louisiana Red, Paul "Wine" Jones and others - they kicked things up a notch in 2006. A European tour capped off a Juno nomination and a win at the Western Canadian Music Awards. 2007 sees the band continue to expand and grow. “Tow Truck” is an uncompromising expression of their varied musical influences that never loses sight of their blues roots.

Described as "blues for people who hate blues," they distill healthy doses of rock 'n' roll, punk and country into their heady houserockin' punch. Give them a stage, any stage and they'll put on the best show they can for whoever's there. Each one is a seasoned pro on their instrument of choice but, never afraid to take chances, the boys are fond of switching it up in an onstage game of musical chairs. To quote a much used and abused cliche, The Perpetrators have to be seen to be believed.
