The Vancouver: On The Coast regional finals in the CBC Searchlight contest had a distinct Âé¶¹Éç¹ú²úflavour.

Âé¶¹Éç¹ú²úband Dentville and Lovecoast – fronted by Squamish’s Danielle Sweeney – were in the final 10 for the search, which looks for Canada’s best new artist.

The winner from each region then gets checked out by a panel of celebrity judges, who then pick the winner. The winning band receives $20,000 worth of music equipment and a spot on a high profile music showcase.

Dentville is comprised of Âé¶¹Éç¹ú²úresidents Darcy Cavanah, Nadine McNeil, Darrell Booth, Chris Robertson and Mike Hewitt and play a southern rock/country fusion style of music.

Lovecoast formed in 2013 and has performed at the World Ski and Snowboard Festival, the Tall Tree Music Festival and across Western Canada. They play a West Coast R&B/Soul Jazz Pop style and Squamish’s Sweeney is the singer and songwriter for the group.
