About

BamBoo (yes, with the tricky casing) is a melodic pop-meets-post-rock band from Toronto, known for packing out historic venues like The Horseshoe Tavern, Lee’s Palace, The Silver Dollar, and Cameron House. With shimmering guitars, percussive audience participation, and their own custom light show, BamBoo turns every show into a full-sensory experience.

Beyond the city limits, BamBoo has taken their sound to some unexpected places — from surprise gigs at airports to a surreal festival appearance in the remote islands of St. Pierre and Miquelon. They even found themselves on a reality show with YouTube inventor Colin Furze. But ask anyone close to the band, and they’ll tell you the real magic has always been the community: a network of friends and fans who show up, sing along, and make every night feel like a reunion.

Just remember — it’s BamBoo with the capital B's. Good luck finding us on Spotify.
