Bankshot! signs The Delegates, band joins Warped tour
Bankshot! has announced the signing of Montreal, Quebec's The Delegates. The reggae/punk six-piece will be releasing their sophomore album, The Diary Of Hamilton Fish this October. The record was produced by Mike Trujillo (Osker, Choking Victim, Leftover Crack)
The label describes the Canadian band as "reggae, punk, rock and hardcore in a way that calls to mind the vibe the Bosstones had on Devils Night Out, or Pez Core era Less Than Jake.." You can check out some material on their myspace page
 The Delegates have been added to the Bofunk stage for all remaining Warped Tour 2005 dates, beginning with the August 1st Pittsburgh, PA stop. After that the band will be playing a handful of dates throughout Ontario with The Flaming Tsunamis and The Flatliners. The Delegates will be heading out on tour in the US with label-mates The Glow this September.
