Indie and Punk Bookings
Killbeat Music works the indie and punk corner of the Vancouver scene, the loud club-night end of the bill where local acts build a following one show at a time. It runs as a focused operation, booking cross-town local shows around the city.
What That Means for Coverage
These are fast-moving, high-energy nights shot under the usual first-three-songs framing. Killbeat keeps close to the local circuit and turns hometown requests around within a day, which keeps short-notice coverage on the table.
Submitting
Photo and press requests go by email. A request should lead with the show, the outlet, and a couple of recent samples, with the artist and date in the subject line. Local bookings usually receive a quick answer, which helps when a show lands on short notice.
