Artist description Founded in early 2003, this band was originally known as the Hartsfield Wildcats; an acoustic side project formed by Simon, Jon D, Scott and Will. As time went on, Jon D. decided to focus on other projects. This is when the band was put on hold until Jon O'Callaghan and Ryan McLaughlin came along to fill the void. Jon O. who was returning from the West coast motivated the group to start things up again. Ryan filled the bassist void that was left by Jon D. With Jon O.'s love for hardcore, the sound immediately changed into something more of an emo/hardcore style. The name came about from yet another side project that Jon D and Will started which Jon O was originally supposed to be in so it was only natural to name the band Is Grace Enough. With influences such as Hopesfall, Poison The Well, A Static Lullaby and From Autumn To Ashes, heavy guitar riffs, breakdowns and powerful vocals with powerful lyrics brings together a very catchy and emotional sound which makes this band one of the most exciting and powerful live shows around. They've taken punk/emo/screamo and melodic hardcore and compiled them into one to bring its fans a rockin' good time.

Press Reviews Among Ottawa's fastest-rising bands, Is Grace Enough opened the festivities, and were decidedly out of place this evening, a .hopesfall -sounding type of band leading off a lineup of furious punk rock. And here's the kicker: IGE are a band that will put Ottawa on the map, if they can keep it together. Averaging nineteen years old or thereabouts, the quintet are granite-solid, combining the screaming/singing in the vein of a barge of other bands, but let's not be misled: IGE's roots are in the metal." www.onegoldenspoon.com
