Hard Rock Miners

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Hard Rock Miners were a Canadian rockabilly/hillbilly/country/folk band based in Vancouver, British Columbia.

The band was formed in 1987 by Michael Phillips, Scooter Johnson, Oliver Metson, Ingrid Mary Percy, and Michael Turner. Turner later became an author, penning the books Hard Core Logo, American Whiskey Bar and The Pornographer's Poem.

Currently, the Hard Rock Miners can be found the first Monday of every month at Vancouver's Railway Club. The Hard Rock Miners play what could be called a rock and roll reverse karaoke, with the band playing the tunes while the entire bar sings the lyrics.
