In the wildest day of the Wet Secrets’ 10-year career so far, the Edmonton band lost one of their vehicles in a double-flip rollover on QE2, then won $100,953 — the richest prize in Alberta music history.
Playing a sold-out show at the Republik with finalists 36? and Lauren Mann and Fairly Odd Folk — both of Calgary — they took the top Peak Performance Project prize over hundreds of Alberta bands after a months-long competition staged by new Calgary radio station the Peak.
Saw all three of those bands earlier in the Project. All good choices for the Final Three.
