Five years have passed since Will Mercer’s accident in the Oregon wilderness. His memory has returned but so have the nightmares.
Those that tried to kill him are either dead, in prison, or on the run. A return to Oregon to reunite with his friends could be just what he needs. Will, Jessie, and Pen wake after a night of reminiscing; however, they are not alone in the forest. They are being hunted. The crack of a gun shatters their peace and their lives. Once again, Will and his friends are in the crosshairs, and the unknown assailants are coming from all directions. Will has to leverage all his training and skills and steel his nerves because his past is coming, and it’s bringing some new friends.

The Blue Canaries are a Northfield band with great songs, great musicians, and just the right amount of chaos.
Chris leads on guitar (or so we're told). Dusty keeps the groove going on bass. Taylor brings the keys and somehow translates music into something the rest of the band can understand. Jordyn and Sam deliver powerhouse vocals, and Will makes the drums go bong.
They're local. They're talented. They're a lot of fun.

They bring you the harmony of saturnine space blues and roaring dio-rock.
