Biography:
With their powerful rhythm section, aggressive guitars and honest song writing, Alert the Medic is a captivating rock act based out of Halifax, Nova Scotia.
In 2006, Alert the Medic recorded their current self-titled album. Following the autumn release, their first single "Reported Missing" climbed to number one on East Coast radio, gaining national attention and garnering showcase spots at Music Nova Scotia Week 2006 and 2008 and at the 2007 and 2009 ECMA's. The band will be returning to the studio to record their second album in the spring of 2009.
Alert the Medic had an impressive year in 2008, receiving two ECMA nominations - CBC Galaxie Rising Star Recording of the Year and Sirius Satellite Radio Rock Recording of the Year, shortly after earning two Nova Scotia Music Award nominations for Pop Rock Artist/Recording of the Year and Group/Recording of the Year in late 2007. They are also the proud recipients of the Pictou County Tourist Association’s 2008 Rock Star Award.
In September, 2008 the band had the privilege of opening for Canadian rock legends Our Lady Peace at the Center 200 in Sydney, Nova Scotia and were part of the D250 Rollercoaster Tour which included dates at Dalhousie & St. Mary's Universities; Acadia University; St. FX University; and Cape Breton University.
