UPCOMING SHOWS
ONE
REASON
Hailing from the greater Toronto area, ONE REASON is a hardworking, straight-up rock ‘n’ roll band dedicated to reviving the vibrant energy of classic roots rock through modern performance. Founded in 2016 by frontman Gordon Izumi and bassist David Chan, the band later welcomed premier Canadian guitarist Michael Morelli and powerhouse drummer Chad Specker.
Izumi says, “We’re four guys who love to rock. We play and record music inspired by the sounds we grew up with in the ’60s, ’70s, and ’80s—because there’s nothing like that around us anymore.”
With their infectious stage presence and expert musicianship, ONE REASON transports audiences back to an era when music was raw, energetic, and authentic. With every performance, they strive to forge a deep connection with listeners, reigniting their passion for the timeless sound of roots rock.
Original tracks like “Way Back Home” and “Working Man” are urgent, dynamic, and rhythmically driven—naturally evolving from their nostalgic love for classic rock covers.
THE JUNKYARD FLAMINGOS
The Junkyard Flamingos are a no-nonsense, full-throttle blast to your rock senses. Based out of Oshawa, Ontario, JYF is all about pure, unfiltered rock—just vocals, drums, bass, two electric guitars, and keyboards. No pretensions, no backing tracks, no slick productions—just straight-up classic rock.
With Gordon Izumi, Pat McCardle, Ben Green, Jimi MacIntyre, and Rawlio Chen, their workmanlike approach delivers raw emotion, humor, and killer chops that make your head nod. Battle-hardened and spit-polished through years of vans, garages, countless soundchecks, and, yes, headlining shows, The Junkyard Flamingos believe rock music is about lifting people up—and they prove that there’s no greater truth than rock and roll.
