Artist History
BROOMFILLER is a 3 piece punk-based heavy melodic alternative, with a psychedelic mix of heavy guitars, light clean tone melodies mixed in with melodic vocals, soothing bass lines, and rhythmic drumming. A blend of music, style and performance which enables them to truly stand out.
"An extremely talented band from Canada, with great melodies and a hint of mod… I like the band's style, the singer's voice is really good." Neal (Punkmusic.com)
BROOMFILLER played the Vans Warped Tour ’00, was the only Canadian band chosen to play ‘Kanawhapalooza 2001’ in Charleston, WV, showcased at both CMW & NXNE in Toronto and was a confirmed artist for the INTERNATIONAL POP OVERTHOW Festival in Los Angeles. Their single "Decide Inside" has been played on CIUT, CFNY, CKLN, CBC and is in rotation on 450+ US College Radio stations with the help of Gold Record Music Promotion. It's also featured on Shuteye Record's "A Low Watt Document" compilation cd currently rotating on 450 CMJ reporting stations. The buzz about the band just keeps on growing.
"…this aggressive trio has all the elements to make an impression on any music scene" - David Anderson (Altarnative.com)
BROOMFILLER’s new full length cd "Watching the girls go bi" showcases their highly addictive, hook-filled, catchy melodic alternative punk rock music. Their music has consistantly been rated in the top 50 Punk songs in Toronto via mp3.com, mainly staying in the top 10. "Watching the girls go bi" has National Distribution throughout Canada and is released through Sterile Records based in B.C. BROOMFILLER toured the new album across Canada for 5 weeks this summer with great success, and are currently planning the 2nd cross-Canada tour which will also be hitting the U.S. this summer.
"…BROOMFILLER is the kind of thing CFNY would cream their panties over!!" - Caustic Truths Magazine
BROOMFILLER consists of guitarist / singer Richard D. Leko, George Nakonechny on bass and backing vocals as well as Phil Comsa on drums.
"This is one of those young bands who work hard to promote themselves, tour consistently and who have the indie ethic down pat." - Krista Lamb (RHiG Magazine)
BROOMFILLER fully believes in the quality of their music and their energetic live stage presence. They live to entertain. They’re a fun up and coming band that enjoys making music and will continue doing so, no matter what gets in their way.
"There's something very freeing in what Broomfiller is achieving ...these Canadian boys know how to rock!" - Ben Ohmart (Assistant Editor, MusicDish)
