Biography

The Unusuals were one of the early bands of the scene. The Unusuals, like Meantime and Buick Mackane were a bridge from the cabaret acts that were prevalent at the time to the new and burgeoning "punk" scene iun Calgary. Yea, they could play covers, but they also had some very cool original songs as well. The Unusuals were the first band to play the Calgarian, opening doors for the whole scene to have a common gathering place. Solid songwriting, as well as being a great live act.
