ATTACK IN BLACK TO PLAY AT HALF-TIME OF 100th YATES CUP CHAMPIONSHIP
HAMILTON, Ont. – With the 100th Yates Cup Championship, presented by Pioneer Petroleums, just a day away, Ontario University Athletics (OUA) is pleased to announce that Attack in Black will be the feature artists during the half-time show.
Hailing from Welland, Ontario, Attack in Black, have quickly won over audiences and critics with their debut release Marriage, a collection of stunning folk-infused songs that merge the soul of old school rock ‘n’ roll with the body of modern day punk rock. Although Attack in Black’s sound may at first closely resemble popular forms of punk rock, it is not fitting to simply categorize the quartet as a “punk rock” band. Various artists and authors that many people would not relate with the genre have influenced the band: from Bruce Springsteen and Neil Young, to Refused and Ramones, to Henry Miller and Charles Bukowski. With infectious melodies and unique vocals, their lyrics are thought provoking and insightful. Attack in Black's swaggering, spirited live set can convert even the most jaded concert-goer.
Don’t miss out on the excitement as the No.6 seeded Western Mustangs travel to Guelph to take on the No.5 seeded Guelph Gryphons, in what is shaping up to be a classic ending to a great OUA football season.
