David Truscott, Floodlight's lead singer and guitarist, embarked on his first tour at the ripe age of 15, traveling by rickety van from Victoria, British Columbia all the way to New York City. He spent the next 10 years playing guitar with critically acclaimed indie groups Breakwater and Honeysuckle. The latter was known as one of Canada's hardest working bands, and was voted Vancouver's best live act by readers of the Georgia Straight.
After hundreds of shows across Canada and the United States, Truscott decided to step up front, and Floodlight, with it bone-shaking melodies and driving guitar, was born.
He quickly hit the studio with longtime friend Galen Rigter on drums, and the duo recorded the Cold faces EP. Their song "Follow Me" hit the #1 spot on Soundclick.com in March 2008.
In the winter of 2007, bassist and backup vocalist Chris Chuy joined Truscott and Rigter, and the three toured across the vast, frozen Canadian landscape, filling clubs from Vancouver to Montreal.
Tom Thacker and Theo Goutzinakis have just finished recording their next rock 'n' roll masterpiece, with new members Andrew West on guitar Dasha Postnikova on keys and vocals and Tobi Duquette on drums.
With the keyboard's hook's weaving through the relentlessly gripping guitars, held up always by the tightest rhythms, Floodlight is ready to blow audiences away.
