Pride Tiger was a Canadian rock band, based in Vancouver, British Columbia. Consisting of vocalist and drummer Matt Wood, guitarists Bob Froese and Sunny Dhak and bassist Mike Payette, the band released its debut EP in 2006. They subsequently signed with EMI Music Canada, which released their full-length debut in June 2007.
The name "Pride Tiger" comes from a mix of "ride the tiger" (a lyric from the Dio song, "Holy Diver") and "Pride Pops" (a drink similar to apple cider).
The band's single "White Witch Woman Blues" has been playlisted on CBC Radio 3 and other Canadian radio stations. It has also been noted, by many fans and other musicians, including Alice Cooper, that Pride Tiger bears a resemblance to the classic rock band Thin Lizzy.
Dhak, Froese and Wood are all former members of 3 Inches of Blood. Payette is a former member of S.T.R.E.E.T.S.
As of June 2009, the band has broken up.
