CP is a relatively new band that has been together for all of 6 months. After meeting in a campground at last year's Sasquatch festival at the Gorge just out side of George Washington, founder's Cliff Thiessen (guitar) and Eric Fortin (vocals) decided that they should get together once they got back to Vancouver. They did and started busking outside of the King George Skytrain station in Surrey. Getting nothing but accolades of garbage and bacteria laden loose change, they decided to class it up and got to an open mic in New Westminster, where they watched a tall man in a spectacular pistolero's hat haunt them with nothing but an acoustic guitar. With shaking knees, they approached the man/demon and asked him about his musical background. Giancarlo Laertini (drums), would soon join them and make their duo........ a trio. Then they needed a bass player and Eric knew this guy Dan from work. "Wanna play bass for us?" asked Eric. Danny Perreira (bass) would play.
