As part of a fund raiser for the Nakusp Youth Centre, Ninjaspy are coming to play an all-ages gig at the Legion on Friday night.
Vocalist/guitarist Joel Parent, drummer Adam Parent and bassist Tim Parent have a connection to the youth centre in the form of Cassia Parent, and if you haven't figured it out, they're related. The musical family are bringing their sounds to stage and hope to enlighten their audience, raising them up above the "skank," the lowest part of human nature.
As their bio reveals, the band is "equipped and, indeed, armed with their own musical weaponry (a derivation of hardcore, ska, grunge, reggae, funk and more), Ninjaspy aim to engage people with radical ideas on a level plane."
Ninjaspy will be joined in this endeavour by NSS Rocks, and $7 bucks will get you in the door (which opens at 6:30, show at 7 p.m.).
