If you like, I can share my notes on 90s Canadian bands that I research for the radio (I know my music ramblings and self-promotion might annoy some).

Ex.

Sons Of Freedom– “Super Cool Wagon” – Sons Of Freedom
The band, consisting of vocalist James Newton, guitarist Don Harrison, bassist Don Binns and drummer Don Short, formed in 1986 in Vancouver. Because three of the four band members had the first name Don, the band was also sometimes jokingly nicknamed "Dons of Freedom". This debut album was marked by a hybrid rock-funk style which was described by critics as a cross between Led Zeppelin and Gang of Four. [wikipedia]


Sons Of Freedom - "Call Me" - Gump
Although it still retained a fairly hard edge, Gump (named after the hockey player, not Forrest) polished that edge somewhat and the volume was reduced a few notches. The newly-commercial Sons of Freedom racked up video play and some airplay on modern rock stations (notably for the catchy "Call Me") [allmusic]
