Speed Control

Hailing from Canada’s North in the Yukon, Speed Control is the rock band that can make you move even at -40 degrees. Described as “Super Tight, Riff Heavy, Harmony Rock” by Stuart Derdeyn (The Province, Vancouver Sun), Speed Control has a captivating sound with an energy that will leave you smiling, singing, dancing, and wanting more. Brothers Graeme and Jody Peters have been joined by new members Eric Holland (Drums, Vocals) and Greg McLaughlin (lead guitar, vocals). With the added depth and creativity, new material and new energy is on the way.

Drawing on influences from Jimmy Eat World, Foo Fighters, Judas Priest, and Motley Crue, Speed Control is 100% Rock and Roll. Speed Control is a band that plays hard, with passion and energy, be it to 40, 400, 4000, and the end goal of 40,000 people. This may seem like a lofty goal, but if you can live in the Yukon, load in and out of shows at minus 40, and still come out rocking, then this doesn’t seem like too hard of a mountain to conquer.

Sponsored by Yamaha Canada Music, Speed Control is a rock band that believes in education. While on tour, the band puts on workshops, school shows, and a School of RAWK.
