Since 2016, Cryptozoologists have been creating scrappy art rock in Whitehorse, Yukon, with acclaim and without. The band’s music carries a spirit of raw and unapologetic political directness, while their distinct, literary songwriting and style channel Indie surrealism at its best. The band consists of songwriter Zach McCann-Armitage and Dawson Beaulieu,Fabian Brook, and Josh MacNeil.
“Delightful scuzzy garage rock [...] that manages to feel charmingly unserious and literate at the same time”
-CUPS N CAKES NETWORK, 2024
“on their latest, they’ve finally married the sardonic cultural critique and existential wandering […] WITH the folky esoterica they’ve always gestured towards and real, meaningful absurdism”
-NEW FEELING, 2020
“really quirky, accomplished garage No Wave that deserves a far larger audience”
-VANCOUVER SUN, 2020
“clever, off-kilter, quietly explosive songs filled with frenetic and provoking words”
-DOMINIONATED, 2019
