GOODWOOD ATOMS

Vancouver's Goodwood Atoms blends ethereal melodies with insistent grooves and electronic flourishes, inspired by the likes of Yeasayer, Youth Lagoon and Radiohead. Since forming in 2014, they have earned accolades from the likes of Noisey, Indie Shuffle, Baeble Music, PopMatters, Exclaim! and All Things Go and are set to release a 6 track EP on March 24th, 2017, and a follow-up 4 track EP on May 12 through the French label Yunizon Records. The 4-piece – composed by Francis Hooper, Joey Pooley, Dawson Verboven, and Justin Banmann - has been featured as a top-12 finalist in the 2014 BC Peak Performance Project and was awarded first place in the 2015 Nimbus Recording Competition. In 2016, the band was awarded a FACTOR JSR grant for the recording of their debut album. Vancouver indie rock band
