A storm is brewing around Hurricane Cletis... Hailing from Saskatchewan, Canada, Hurricane Cletis has quickly dominated the local music scene and has become a front-runner for international recognition. It all started in 2006, when just after a year of writing, Hurricane Cletis decided to hit the stage. In 2006, Hurricane Cletis won Roxy on Broadway's ''Ultimate Band Warz", earning the respect of industry moguls Ralph James (The Agency Group) and Steve Blair (Head of A&R for Warner Music Canada). Only a few months later, Hurricane Cletis was one of 29 bands selected to receive a $10,000 recording grant from Rawlco Radio. Shortly after, Hurricane Cletis began recording a full length self titled debut album. The band enlisted the help of Ryan Andersen, who has worked on projects such as Nickelback's 'The Long Road' and 'All the Right Reasons'. Andersen's other credits include working with the bands: Thornley, ACDC, Hinder, Default, Bryan Adams, Theory of a Deadman, and Faber Drive. Combining sounds of their influences from yesterday and today (Motley Crue, Godsmack, Nickelback), the band created a punchy, driving collection of songs. While boasting hard rockin songs like 'Disgusted’ and 'Break You' while tracks like 'Stained' and ‘Little While’ show a more vulnerable side. Only a few short months after completing the album, Cletis member Greg Dyck was chosen as the regional winner for the Canadian Radio Star Songwriting Competition for the song 'Stained'. Among hundreds of entries, Hurricane Cletis rose to the top and earned a trip to Toronto for Nationals, and an opportunity to showcase the song during Canadian Music Week. This is only the beginning. Hurricane Cletis has played numerous sold out shows, and have quickly become the giants of the Saskatchewan music scene. In the past year alone, they have shared the stage with Seether, Econoline Crush, Saliva, and Honeymoon Suite to name a few. Hurricane Cletis continues to build a fan base both nationally as well as internationally. With and unbeatable live show, and small town charisma, they garner attention on any stage they play. Simply put...Hurricane Cletis is a must see live show that screams their ''get off your ass and party'' attitude.
