About Bluerock Junction:

Bluerock Junction is a hard-hitting blues trio from Calgary featuring Caleb Roddick on bass, Lael Johnston on drums, and Ethan Collister on guitar and vocals.

Their live shows are danceable, spontaneous, and unapologetically in the moment, delivering feel-good chaos with deep grooves, tight musicianship, and a whole lotta funk.

Recorded live off the floor to 4-track cassette, Bluerock Junction’s debut album Thrift Store Queen (2025) captures the band’s raw chemistry in real time. The album climbed to #20 on CKUA Radio’s Top 30 Chart.

Dirty Rock Magazine raves it’s “music you listen to at full volume… Bluerock Junction is a band that’s hard not to love.”
