Comprised of Lindsey Hardy and “Q” Mike McGie on vocals, Rob Stevenson (guitar), Eric Kolsteren (percussion) and Barry Taitinger (bass), the band The Issues creates music that transcends the easy labels of music media and instead lays ground for a sound that is wholly the band and best heard live.

The music is written as a cooperative effort between all members of The Issues. The band sites influences from Evanescence to Radiohead to the Red Hot Chili Peppers.

Rob, Barry, and Q began playing almost ten years ago in 1994 with their first performances as one of Edmonton’s most successful independent groups, 12th House. 12th House released a full-length album and two separate EP’s as well as playing a range of live shows throughout Western Canada with artists such as Nickleback, the Headstones, and Big Sugar in addition to being ranked #1 on the New Music Canada Charts.
