The Royal Canadians are a indie/folk/rock band made by some teenagers in the Cowichan Valley of Vancouver Island, British Columbia, Canada.
What once started as duo has now grown into a intricate quartet consisting of electric and acoustic guitars, banjos, keyboards, bass, drums and more... 
Their debut album "Lonely Whale" is available now!

The Royal Canadians formed in early 2011 out of the Cowichan Valley. The band started as a duo consisting of singer/songwriter, Connor Head, and drummer/songwriter, Taylor Allum. With the vision of a full band in mind, the duo searched for other members to join the team. They decided to release their first demo's just as a duo. It wasn't long until they were offered a recording contract from Grammy nominated producer/drummer Ron Thaler.
In August, 2011 the boys started to record their very first full length album at Electric City Studios. After many long studio days and missed school days the album was nearly done, and the hunt for other musicians kicked into high gear.
Ray Visscher was introduced to the band through guitar class at highschool. After a few jams and the purchase of a banjo, he joined the band as the lead guitarist and banjo player. A few months and a couple of gigs went by until the band stumbled upon bass player, Ryan Scott. Now as a complete quartet, the band will be trying harder than ever to get their unique sound to the ears of everyone possible!
