The Faceplants

by Jan 2, 2010

Originating from Coquitlam, BC, The Faceplants took a step and got a good running start on throwing down a new twist on ska music.

Since 2006 they have gained an amazing fan base throughout the Lower Mainland and have shared the stage with bands such as The Trews, Chilliwack, The Latency and Ninjaspy. With several concerts under their belt such as the Blue Mountain Festival, Golden Spike Days, The Roundhouse, The Venue and much more, they won't be slowing down anytime soon.

Fusing many genres, including ska, reggae, rock, country, rap, disco, funk, jazz, and surf, they have developed a unique sound that the whole family can enjoy. They will make you want to get up out of your seat and dance!
