About:

If you've been searching for a cred-oozing pop-punk band that features a high-school English teacher, a Nickelodean TV star, four long-time friends and former members of a grocery list of defining bands from Southern Ontario's fertile rock 'n' roll grounds, you've shown up to the right party. Toronto's the Artist Life have been playing their suburb-raised brand of pop-punk across Canada for just over a year, and they're already snagging attention from all the right places for all the right reasons.
