Artist History
The Probes where formed in October of 1998. Over the next 2 years they played at clubs all over Ontario and even made a few TV appearances (CITY TV's Breakfast Television, and MUCHMUSIC). In 1999 they recorded a 7 song CD entitled "Caravan", which was recorded with the help of local record label Hottub Records. In September of 2000 the band had to call it quits so Adam and Kyle could attend post-secondary schoool. However, due to popular demand the band reunited in June 2002 and spent the summer gigging at Hamilton area clubs and festivals. As of September 2002, The Probes have offically called it quits for good! |
