Live rock, ska and punk rock from Kelowna band The Ozzy Ozmunds

Kelowna and Okanagan’s least original cover band.

The most wikked-ass band in the Milky Way Galaxy finally has a home on the world-f'n-wide-f'n-web.

Loading...

The Ozzy Ozmunds are on a crusade to become the greatest cover band of all time—and possibly enslave the masses and become rulers of the universe... patience, one step at a time. Invite all of your friends to join our movement or suffer the consequences!

Yours truly,
The Ozzy Ozmunds

Accelerate Okanagan 2012 Kickoff Party

January 23rd, 2012

Huzzah! The Accelerate Okanagan 2012 Kickoff Party was a huge success.

The room was absolutely packed to the rafters with enthusiastic (and perhaps intoxated) nerds and techies from all over Kelowna, the OK and abroad. The Ozzy Ozmunds were extremely proud to be part of this event and to be able to provide rockin’ music and high-energy entertainment for the night. Special thanks to Jeff Keen, Richard Taylor and Fiona Campbell for making the night go along so smoothly.

Here’s a photo from the event taken by the talented Jayce Van Der Linden from Van Studio Photography. More here on Flickr.

Better than the Whitesnake song

February 27th, 2011

“Here I go again on my own”—Whitesnake

The Ozzy Ozmunds ‘shop’ has been relocated from Edmonton to Kelowna, and by some fate or magic has been successfully reborn through dedication and hard work. Shane (an original and founding member) has reformed the band and faithfully recreated the same energy and style of the previous incarnation of the band.

The new crew consists of the following talented faces:

  • Eric Rehlinger on drums
  • Ryan Mackay playing bass
  • Steve Merlo providing vocals

Stay tuned for more news on the exploits of these fine gentlemen.

Further, it wouldn’t be appropriate to ‘christen’ the new roster without paying homage to the incredible past members of The Ozzy Ozmunds (you guys are all f-ing amazing!):

  • Bruce Armstrong – vocalist
  • Chris Iwaniuk – bassist
  • Ben Shillabeer – drummer
  • Eugenio Pacileo – drummer
  • Paul Caetano – bassist
  • Chris Strang – drummer

We give a big salute the past of The Ozzy Ozmunds and are looking forward to the future!
