Since its inception in 2001, Vanderpark has been carving their powerful and undeniable musical influence into the Canadian music scene by standing at the frontlines of the revolution that is present in the music industry today. Two soaring harmonies are at the heart of their trademark sound, while intricately crafted songs remain their anchor. Vanderpark's sonic diversity and appeal is no less than universal. Exuding palpitated grooves, weaving melodies that uplift the soul, and rocking fist-pumping anthems, Vanderpark delivers a concert experience that is utterly unique and refreshing.

In '05 Vanderpark also shared the stage with triple platinum selling artists The Spin Doctors, as well as Truths and Rights featuring long-time members of both highly acclaimed acts Big Sugar, and Toots and the Maytals.

For this young band, the buzz surrounding the release of their debut album, ?"All Your Hands", is spreading fast, as their active word-of-mouth fan base continues to grow.
