20 Amp Soundchild grew up in Pickering, Ontario; forming in 2008 and completing their first album, the self-titled, ’20 Amp Soundchild’ in the summer of 2009. 20amp’s debut EP was recorded and produced at the Pocket Studios in Toronto by Mike Turner of Crash Karma (formerly of Our Lady Peace). In Turner’s words, "I like that they have a sound of their own," he says. "Nick's vocals and Justin's guitar atop David and Ryan's solid rhythm section add up to more than the sum of their individual parts. Unique chord voicings and melody, to me at least, are the signature of 20 Amp Soundchild. I saw them at the Horseshoe and just knew we could do something good. I'm proud of the EP and even though it was done fast I think the results speak for themselves. I can't wait for more music from these guys, they're just finding their voice as a group and I only see them going from strength to strength." The songs have made an aggressive push into the indie rock sound while maintaining progressive rock roots and pushing for real pop sensibilities. The highly anticipated EP entitled, "The Others" was released April 19, 2011 and garnered a coveted spot on MTV Drops. The album has sold over 750 units to date.
