Everybody knows Winnipeg garage rock/blues trio the Perpetrators. They are Jason Nowicki - lead vocals, guitars Brad Ferguson - vocals, bass Ken McMahon - vocals, drums.
"...my favourite band" - Sue Foley
"J Nowicki has been my favorite guitar player since we were both 15 years old at the Blue Note Cafe in Winnipeg... & it's taken over 15 years for me to get over my initial fear, which has only subsided into a tingling sort of awe. The Perps' committment to the things they have loved (& mastered) since they were kids, is a template for what every artist should endeavour to achieve. Ironically it's their dedication to the tradional elements of blues, country music, & dirty rock & roll, that, combined with just the inevitable doses of ingenuity & personality, makes them possibly the most honest & unique band i've ever heard. In this arena, there is no other band that i know who can touch them." - Luke Doucet
"These guys know what I'm talking about... when we're playing, I can feel the Wolf looking down and smiling." - Hubert Sumlin, blues legend; long-time Howlin' Wolf guitarist; Jimi Hendrix and Eric Clapton's favorite guitar player
"The Perpetrators have made the blues tent in Canada bigger." - Shelagh Rogers, host of CBC's Sounds Like Canada
