Pointed Sticks

Pointed Sticks are a Canadian punk rock / power pop band from Vancouver. Originally active from 1978 to 1981, then reuniting to perform in July 2006 through to November 2012.

After a three year hiatus, Pointed Sticks returned to the stage in June 2015 for shows on Vancouver island as well as the July 11th Khatsahlano street party in Vancouver (sporadic live appearances have continued into 2016).

The band is known for their fast melodic pop music and liberal use of harmony singing by all five members—also for unusual graphic images that acted as counterpoint to the music.
