Although Luke, Jake and Cody Kennerd grew up in the 90's, their sound is a compelling throw-back to the '60s. They write songs for the coming of age struggle, the girls they have known and the places they've been. Their stories wander down suburban streets, across worn-out fields and through crowded bars. Gritty vocals, jangly riffs and tight harmonies channel a mix of influences old and new including the Hollies, the Doors, the Strokes and Kings of Leon.

In 2009 their debut album Black And White Summer was released and FM stations HOT 103FM, Power 97FM and 92.9 KickFM immediately took notice, tracks 'Black and White Summer' and 'Running Home to River Heights' quickly shot to #1. In July of 2010 they left their one-horse town of Winnipeg, Manitoba and headed for the Big Apple. In just five days they recorded an electrifying demo with producer duo Gus Van Go and Werner F. (The Stills, Priestess, Hollerado, The Trews). Upon their return, the Sons' revealed these songs to a packed Canad Inns Stadium as the opening act for the 2010 Rock on the Range festival.
