Miesha and The Spanks
Based in Calgary/Treaty 7, Miesha and The Spanks are a garage-rock two-piece who turn it all the way up. Shaking the rafters with her radiant range, Miesha Louie simultaneously wails on the mic while she riffs on her flying V, as Sean Hamilton’s performative, hard-as-heck hitting drums captivate the crowd. High-energy performances paired with catchy power-pop sing-a-long choruses make them at home on big festival stages as well as sweaty dive bars.
Awarded 2024 Breakout Artist of the Year at the Western Canadian Music Awards, their latest album “Unconditional Love In Hi-Fi” (Mint Recs) took them across Canada and into the US, UK, Germany, Sweden, and Poland. They’ve played as support to Billy Talent, Bif Naked, and Black Belt Eagle Scout. Miesha was a 2023 Keychange Artist, and is an Artist Ambassador for the Downie Wenjeck Fund as a mixed-Secwépemc artist.
With a serious dose of spirit and charisma in her back pocket Miesha is ready to throw down and make every song resonate with her own jagged signature. Confronting raw subjects and creating a legacy of slaying misogyny, each of the duo’s songs are an art-rock statement that masters the noisy by applying a no-nonsense approach.
