News!

The Kerplunks have been busy little bees these past few weeks!

We had the chance to play at a whole bunch of BC schools, including Coquitlam, Langley, Port Coquitlam and Abbotsford. We even had the chance to shoot some hoops with some of the kids. So much fun!

Now we're rocking out in the recordings studio working on our third album. It still doesn't even have a name!

Some great news, we've been nominated for 10th Annual Independent Music Awards, “The Indies” for Favourite Children's Group! This is fun. Some of the others nominated are The Funky Mamas, Chris McKhool, The Bee’s Knees and Duplex. We're in some pretty awesome Canadian company here and offer many congrats to the other artists nominated.



Yay! Stay tuned for news about upcoming shows, summer music festivals and CD release parties. Woo Hoo!

"Walk On" is rockin the awards scene, just like it's big brother "The Kerplunks"!

Canadian Folk Music Award Nomination!

Guess what?!

The Kerplunks have been nominated for a Canadian Folk Music Award for Children's Album of the Year! This is the same award we won in 2008 when we got to go to St. John's Newfoundland. Boy that was fun!

This time we get to go to Gatineau Quebec! That's right next door to our nation's capital Ottawa! Check out the other fantastic nominees HERE.

We're really excited. We love our job. We feel the love, big time.

Woo Hoo!!

Summer of FUN!

Wow friends, this has been the craziest summer! The Kerplunks are done flying around the globe for our summer 09 tour and are back, ready to generate some fun for the fall/winter/spring!

As you can see from this photo, The Kerplunks were seriously rockin the beach scene. This is our guitarist Aaron (Catman) Cadwaladr taking a moment between ear-splitting, shredding guitar riffs to rock the vocals with his wireless kelp mic. This epochal moment took place on North Beach in the Haida Gwaii (Edge of the World festival). We also played the Midsummer Music Festival in Smithers and the Winnipeg Folk Fest. We did lots of flying and our arms are very tired!

Haha.
See you soon,
your Kerplunks buddies!!
