Artist History The Saskatones met while playing for the junior E hockey team in Saskatoon.After being accused of instigating a bench clearing brawl against the North Battleford team they were suspended indefinitely.Having their hopes of playing hockey shattered, the Saskatones found a new love playing rock n' roll.Their brand of canuck surf rock was a hit at outdoor hockey rinks and local donut stores (they were discovered while playing at the opening of a Tim Horton's in Moose Jaw). The Saskatones became the centre of controversy when they were invited to play the national anthem at a hockey game in Lloydminster.The Albertan half of the crowd booed the Saskatchewan rockers causing riots in the stands that eventually caused the game to be postponed.Having signed to Dadmobile Records, the long awaited debut album by the Saskatones is expected before the end of the year 2000.
