The Pack A.D. is a Canadian garage rock duo from Vancouver, British Columbia. Known for their explosive live performances and the ability to generate a massive sound with only two members, The Pack A.D. plays garage rock/pop/punk.[1]

History

Formed in 2006, The Pack A.D. consists of singer/guitarist Becky Black and drummer Maya Miller. The duo released four studio albums on Mint Records.[2] When their contract with Mint expired, the duo signed with Nettwerk in April 2013.[3] They released their fifth studio album, Do Not Engage, on January 28, 2014.[4]

Style and influence

Musical styles include garage rock, pop, punk and blues.[5] In the past, reviewers have compared the duo to The White Stripes, The Kills, and The Black Keys.[6] The band slightly evolved away from their raw early sound with their third album, We Kill Computers, and with their 2011 release, Unpersons.[7]
