Young Canadians (originally The K-Tels) was a Canadian punk rock band formed in Vancouver in 1978 and active for just under two years. The YC's were influenced not only by the other punk bands in town at that time such as D.O.A. and the Pointed Sticks, but also by the New York Dolls, the Stooges, and 1960s garage rock. Although the band only released a small amount of material before breaking up, their single "Hawaii" is one of the classic Canadian punk anthems. The band's leader, songwriter and guitarist was Art Bergmann, who went on to become one of the key figures in Canadian alternative Source: Wikipedia, CC BY-SA
