Artist To Watch In 2026: Dead Bob

Hailing from Vancouver Island, Canada, Dead Bob is the solo project of John Wright—legendary drummer of the now-retired punk rock powerhouse NoMeansNo. In this new incarnation, Wright is joined by Colin MacRae, Byron Slack, Ford Pier, and Kristy Lee Audette, reimagining two incredible covers to mark his reunion with the label that helped launch his legacy.

Dropping their incredible 7" "Some Bodies/We Are The Humans" this last year, one listen and you'll see there’s a reason we say: Play it loud. 2026 looks like it's going to be a busy year with tours of Canada and Europe planned! 

NoMeansNo fans, rejoice: a worthy successor has arrived—and their name is Dead Bob.
