Broken Road is an up and coming band from Sydney, NS. As an entrant in the 2019 CBC
Searchlight Competition with their song “Paycheque” and finished in the Top 50 in all of
Canada and received generous radio play on CBC Radio One. Broken Road’s upbeat and well-crafted original songs blend many genres including rock, blues, folk, and pop. The band’s high energy live show also includes many recognizable cover songs that always have the audience singing along.
Broken Road consists of four close friends: Brandon Bates (Lead Vocals, Guitar), Mike Gorey (Lead Guitar) Bill Jeans (Bass) and Alan Buckingham (Percussion).
Brandon and Alan met while both were working together. The two discovered each other’s strong interest in music, and quickly started writing songs and booking gigs. The band has since gone on to showcase their talents on some big stages, opening for world-famous acts such as Slowcoaster, The Town Heroes and Pretty Archie as well as scoring a Showcase event at the 2022 Music Nova Scotia week. You can find Broken Road playing at festivals and events throughout the summer or entertaining fans during local music events.
The Bands Debut EP was recorded at Alans Home Studio and was mixed and mastered by Mike Sheppard
