Abbotsford, British Columbia, Canada (2004 – 2011)
You Say Party (known as You Say Party! We Say Die! until June 2010) was a dancepunk band which formed in Abbotsford, British Columbia, Canada in 2004. The band consists of Becky Ninkovic (vocals), Robert Andow (keyboards), Derek Adam (guitar), Stephen O’Shea (bass) and Bobby Siadat (drums). The band took a brief hiatus in the Spring of 2010 after drummer Devon Clifford died of a brain hemorrhage on April 18, 2010 two days after collapsing on stage during a show in Vancouver. On June 22, 2010, the band announced they had changed their name to “You Say Party” and also announced that keyboardist Krista Loewen had left the band.
Two members of the band Gang Violence, Robert Andow and Bobby Siadat, will replace Leowen and Clifford. The group disbanded in 2011
Vancouver’s resident dance-punk savants You Say Party! We Say Die! are a catalyst on the edge of a scene brimming towards explosion; hybridized, mechanized, philosophizing machines that have learned self-awareness and found their soul. .
Self-styled pioneers and genre-warriors alike are noticing that this is a band taking on the world on their own terms. But their relationship might have ended with late night skate park odysseys or the formation of a browbeating bicycle gang had Stephen O’Shea (bass) not overheard Becky Ninkovic (vocals) singing to herself and asked her to join the band. Time and circumstance have since streamlined You Say Party! We Say Die! into its reigning, laser guided incarnation, an anthemic,stomping, post-everything insistence that “If you are doing what you really love then life feels like a party. Don’t stop. Do it ‘till it kills you.”

Seen them live many years ago in Padua, Italy. It was a good show, even if they weren't so popular at the time.

Ah... I wish I had seen them live when I had the chance... Hit the Floor and Lose All Time are extremely good; they sound a little naive, but that's part of their originality. The Danskwad EP is also pretty good, I'd love to see a re-release. XXXX was a disappointment though, probably foreshadowing their difficulties and the ultimate break up... :( Regardless, we'll always remember the wonderful music you've made! <3
