Fronted by award-winning vocalist Jacob Dryden, Quickness has racked up six international radio awards and continues to captivate audiences with their dynamic sound and undeniable stage presence.
Their latest single, “Paradise,” released on March 1, 2025, is a melodic surge of alternative punk energy, capturing the spirit of adventure camping by the beach. The track is currently in medium rotation on Canadian rock radio, solidifying Quickness’s reputation as a band to watch.
