Vancouver BC electronic band Bear Mountain was an unknown entity to me as I walked in the doors of The Phoenix. I heard from a staff member that their sound check sounded awesome and just based on the sound check she became their biggest fan. High praise.
They got a big cheer when Beaches shouted out to them and again when they hit the stage. They delivered a set of big, groovy beats - disco beats with a 90s then 80s - vibe if that makes no sense whatsoever. Their 80s synth sounds and cool, triangular light show made it all complete.
Check out some of their tunes.
