Stashes

Kicking ass and making music.

It’s the mantra we’ve been living by since we started jamming in Victoria, BC, Canada.

It was 2019 when brothers Sam and Ross Goldsand, and friends Simon Plant and Colin Kaeser first came together. They were rag-tag musicians at best but, after enough time, things started to take shape. They started playing riffs of their own and learning the ropes of songwriting as they went. Luckily, it’s a field without many rules and countless methods of execution.

A friend of the band, Spenny Steele, was making his own music until 2022, when he started jamming with the boys. It immediately became clear that his effortless playing and general shreddery took their sound to another level.

Stashes’ hard hitting riffs, head banging rhythms, and ear catching hooks blur the lines between modern and vintage rock. Taking the university music scene by storm, Stashes have developed a following that brings an exciting, raw, unadulterated energy to their shows. This combination of energy and pure rock gives listeners an idea of what a Black Keys and Led Zeppelin baby could sound like.

Their debut album “Where They Won’t Find It” reminds us all why being in a band is so fun. Their songs remind you of both a relaxing day at the beach and struggling for survival in the desert. Whether it's blasting “Summer Butter” while cruising on the lake, or getting sweaty in the mosh pit to “Death Valley”, Stashes are sure to put a smile on even your grandmother’s face.
