Biography

Blending a visual style influenced by European cabaret of the 1930s with music that's a spirited gumbo of pop, punk, metal, and ska, Vincent Black Shadow is one of the more unusual acts to emerge from Vancouver's pop music scene in the new millennium. The Vincent Black Shadow story began when singer Cassandra Ford caught the attention guitarist Robbie Kirkham when they ordered the same drink at a Vancouver cocktail lounge. Born in the Philippines and raised in Vancouver, Ford had recently returned to Canada after a record deal with a label in Manila had gone sour (they wanted to remake her into a pre-fab pop idol while she had more ambitious things in mind), while Robbie (whose father spent nearly four decades with the Vancouver Symphony Orchestra) was trying to put together a new band with his brothers Chris on bass and Anthony on drums.
