About Soda Pony
Hailing from Whitehorse, Yukon, Soda Pony is made up of local idiots Patrick Hamilton and Aiden Tentrees. In the city where they’re best known as scavengers or employees at the local dump, Soda Pony captures the hearts, minds, and stomachs of anyone who’s ever wondered if it would be better to live on Mars while taping their muffler on to their truck. Fueled by the local drive-through, Soda Pony creates an explosion of sound reminiscent of a sci-fi, trailer-trash version of Simon and Garfunkel, sharing vocal leads that blend the earnest and the irreverent. Together they have been messing around with music in a scrap pile of genres for more than a decade, which evolved into the formation of Soda Pony in 2013.
