Sharing a love of the kind of raw, soulful Springsteenesque Rock that
inspires a teen to pick up a guitar and start a band, Arkells formed in
Hamilton, Ontario CANADA, in 2006 comprised lead singer + guitarist Max
Kerman, guitarist Mike DeAngelis, keyboardist + guitarist Dan Griffin,
bassist Nick Dika and drummer Tim Oxford.
The ambitious and prolific five-piece quickly found its groove and recorded
an EP entitled "Deadlines" in 2007. Since the release of this
6-track disc, the band has traveled across Canada sharing stages with
Sam Roberts, Alexisonfire
and The Black Crowes.
With live shows fueling the buzz created by the EP, the band quickly caught
the ear of Dine Alone Records who released the band's debut full-length
album, "Jackson Square", in October 2008; it includes the undeniably
catchy single "Oh, The Boss Is Coming!".
