Posted on by Bryce Kelley


Its no secret…Sonic boys and girls are in love with USS. Those 2 boys from
Toronto have played around a dozen shows in Edmonton over the last 5 years, and each one is bigger, louder, and more intense than the last. We even took them on vacation with us to Mexico last fall. Infact, the connection between the band and this city is so strong, HUMAN KEBAB from USS has now joined the payroll at Sonic.
HUMAN KEBAB (also known as Jay) is set to begin hosting a weekly mix show on Sonic…we call it SubSONiC. It will air Friday and Saturday nights at 11pm. Its like a party before the party. He will be mixing and mashing the biggest and best songs in Modern Rock.

He also gives us the scoop the new music they are working on, and when they may return to Edmonton…
