There are several bands that have been called 'The Coalition'.

(1) The Coalition, are a Welsh 4 piece band playing covers from: Kings Of Leon, Stereophonics, The Clash, The Enemy, Feeder, Foo Fighters and similar.

(2) The Coalition is a band from Salt Spring Island, BC, consisting of four musicians playing your popular cover choons from the 80′s on up.

(3) The Coalition is a power-rock trio from North Vancouver, BC, Canada. Will Hodgins and Dylan Stickel formed The Coalition, a 3-piece progressive blues-rock band in 2009, with an idea to create innately original and thought provoking music. Currently, with Will Hodgins on guitar, Dylan Stickel on bass, & Victor Orellana-Escoto on drums and percussion, this group forms an undeniable chemistry; energising and exciting audiences throughout Vancouver’s Lower-Mainland.

As a rock trio rooted in the blues and coloured with sounds of funk, jazz and alternative music, The Coalition strives to explore and expand musical boundaries, write original music and experiment with sound. Tom Harrison at the Province newspaper went so far as to say, “The Coalition breaks rules because it doesn’t know of any rules. So, it jams, experiments and generally is reckless….this creates unpredictability in that it’s hard to guess where the trio will go next and trying to figure out what the trio will do next can be fun…. Right now, there is a delicious innocence…”

The music of The Coalition is a true testament to their driving ambition – to create a movement of organic music that harmonizes with individuals through the uniting power of sound. Since releasing their debut album last summer, the group has been gearing up to record a second while continuously playing live.
