We also organized a Mohawk-O-Thon where bands were invited to do a Mohawk haircut to anyone interested. Participants were invited to give 20 dollars for the haircut. In total we raised 965 dollars for this activity. Fun was had by all,

A very special thanks goes to The Brains and Grimskunk who gave us some time and to NOFX where we were able to meet their manager.

On the 16th of May, Music 4 Cancer was honored by the city of Blainville during their annual "Blainville Tu M'inspire" event. It was following an article in the local Nordinfo newspaper the week before that the city decided to honor Music 4 Cancer and its founder Jay Epinat and Francois Dupont. The Mayor of Blainville was impressed by M4C's mission and the incerdible story, work and research behind M4C.

Please note that Music 4 Cancer will be celebrating its first anniversary with a rock solid show on May 28th, 2011 at le Monte Cristo Bar in Ste-Therese.

The Brain, Fifty Stars Anger and Cats 'N' Crows will be featured on this first anniversary special.

"THE BRAINS are a killer, seven year old psychobilly punk band from Montreal, Canada. It's truly quite amazing how such a crazy sound can come out of just three instruments: the bass, guitar and drums. Though often classified as straight up psychobilly or rockabilly, The Brains are really more at the hardcore end of the rockabilly music scale; it's like punk with a serious twist" - Pure Grain Radio

FIFTY STARS ANGER : They Played more than 450 shows in the last 7 years ! You'll love them if you like bands like Propagandhi, Good Riddance, and political lyrics !

A show you won't want to miss.

Three great bands for $5.00. We expect you to come in great numbers and make this event a succes.

Music 4 Cancer is proud to announce that we will be part of the Vans Warped Tour in Mississauga, Ontario on July 15th and in Montreal on July 16th, 2011.
