FREE CONCERT | OPEN TO THE PUBLIC | AUG 9TH
The Arcana Kings will be on the Bacardí Main Stage at Kickstands on August 9th, and they’re
bringing something with them that will absolutely blow you away. All the way from Canada, the Arcana
Kings are one of the hottest groups to cross the border in a long time. Their original hard-
hitting rock n roll sound is nothing short of breathtaking.
This band is a musical sensation that continues to deliver impressive rock songs like their powerful
Canadian Football League sports anthem is “Here We Go.”
Arcana Kings, meaning secrets or mysteries, are made up of Johnny McCuaig on lead vocals,
bagpipes and rhythm guitar, lead guitarist James Picton, rhythm guitarist and vocals Allan Morrison,
on bass Kevin Kyle and drummer Graham Templeman.
Bagpipes and rock n roll …oh, hell yeah, you gotta see these guys!
The Canadian Football League’s Saskatchewan Roughriders use the bands single, Here We Go,
(Lions As Ravens) as they take to the field at the start of every home game in Mosaic Stadium.
Here We Go is quickly becoming a sports anthem with CFL and NHL teams to fire up athletes and
their fans.
The band was also featured in the opening and halftime at the Western-Semi Finals CFL Playoffs.
As ‘The Johnny McCuaig Band,’ they have toured overseas in countries such as Japan, Sweden and
Mexico, and have secured fans from across the Western United States through tours and annual
performances on Fremont Street in Las Vegas.
‘The Johnny McCuaig Band’ was nominated for awards such as Best Music Video, Artist of the Year
and Best Rock Song for the Kootenay Music Awards, as well as Best Rock Video for Canadian
Independent Music Video Awards.
