Augie Dawg’s "Good Times Roll" is a dynamic Cars Tribute band that has been captivating audiences with their infectious energy and timeless sound. Their name, a nod to one of the most recognizable and memorable Cars songs, reflects their mission to bring good vibes and unforgettable experiences to every performance.

The band consists of five talented musicians: Matt Gladman on lead guitar and vocals, Steve Williams on bass and vocals, Brian McKenna on drums, Christian La Roche on keyboards and vocals, and Augie Dawg, who shines as both rhythm guitarist and lead vocalist. Together, they create a rich tapestry of sound that resonates with audiences young and old, igniting nostalgia while introducing new fans to the magic of The Cars' great music catalogue.

Good Times Roll has established itself as a formidable presence in the local music scene, consistently selling out shows and drawing massive crowds to their much-anticipated “39 Days of July” performances. These events have become a staple in the community, filling downtown squares and parks with fans dancing and singing along to a repertoire that includes all of The Cars' best songs.

As they continue to build their legacy, Good Times Roll is bringing their well-honed show to the Queens in Nanaimo for the first time. This show will showcase their unique sound and engaging performance style. With a dedication to excellence and a commitment to delivering memorable live experiences, Good Times Roll is poised to inspire audiences and keep the spirit of rock and roll alive for years to come.

Join them on this exhilarating journey and let the good times roll!
