Garage rock for the ages.

Separated by relocation, reunited by pandemic, Dynasty Four are a silver-lining kind of band. Fun-first yet fierce; scrappy but sincere. 

Dynasty Four’s hooky collection of ear-worms deftly blend pop, punk, and surf into their own dynamic brand of garage rock. 

Dynasty Four is the latest project from Nikkole Couture, one half of the songwriting duo behind First Person Shooter, The Nancy Boys, and Jinx Malloy.  

Originally a four-peice band formed in 2012 in Halifax and relocated to Toronto in 2014, Dynasty Four brought their electric live presence to local venues and small festivals throughout 2015 before releasing their debut album, Anachronisms, in December.

But less than a month later another move - this time to the UK - prompted the band to (reluctantly) part ways. Fast forward the fall of 2020, a break in the pandemic clouds: the expat returns home to Toronto to get the band back together. 

In June 2022 Dynasty Four proved that what is dead may never die with the release of their EP, Revivals. 

But a band back together can break up again. Dynasty Four found this out the hard way but the bright side was 2024's Revisions. This three-song EP explored what it means to be on your own after everything falls apart. 

Now comfortable as a “solo band” and adept at backing herself up at gigs with her trusty drum machine, Kyle, Nikkole is about to release a second full length record, Imperials. Kicking off September 24, 2026 with the first single, Yes Chef! a raucous call to kitchen arms inspired by too many hours spent binge-watching realioty cooking shows. 

For fans of: The Strokes, The Sounds, The Beaches, Bleachers, Bangles, video games, trailer park boys, Community, cats, awesome things.
