ACTORS MoDERN Post-Punk

Vancouver’s ACTORS has been called “Canada’s most exciting post-punk band” for good reason. With a sleek, cinematic sound that’s ice-cool and anthemic, the four-piece—Jason Corbett (vocals, guitar), Shannon Hemmett (synth, vocals), Kendall Wooding (bass, vocals), and Adam Fink (drums)—has carved out a distinct space in the modern darkwave scene.

Their breakthrough 2018 album It Will Come to You (Artoffact Records) introduced their signature blend of moody synths, propulsive basslines, and Corbett’s magnetic voice. 2021’s Acts of Worship took it further, earning spots on multiple “Best of” lists and racking up praise from BrooklynVegan, Exclaim!, CBC Radio, and Post-Punk.com. The album plays like the soundtrack to a neon-noir dream: melancholy, electrifying, and endlessly replayable.

ACTORS has toured extensively across North America, Europe, the UK, and Mexico, appearing at key festivals like Cruel World, Grauzone, Cold Waves, Substance LA, and Wave-Gotik-Treffen. They’ve performed in-studio on KEXP Seattle, JBTV Chicago, plus Part Time Punks LA, and landed song placements in TV shows like Nancy Drew and Netflix’s The Order. 2026 will see a stream of singles leading up to the release of the new ACTORS album “Our Love Will Live Forever".

Known for their intense, immersive live shows, ACTORS continues to captivate with every performance. As Montreal Rocks put it: “If I was only allowed to go to one show this year, I would now choose ACTORS.” Join ACTORS on tour in European and Canadian cities this September.
