Hyaenas

Hyaenas is an Indie Alt Pop band known for their fierce energy, bona fide connection, and a sound that fuses 80’s nostalgia with modern production. With pulsing synths, gritty guitars, and emotionally potent lyrics, their music lies somewhere along the lineage between The Go-Go’s and The Beaches and explores the complexities of Human Nature through a lens that’s as bold as it is vulnerable.

Since their explosive debut opening for The Pack AD in 2021, Hyaenas has steadily built a name for themselves with their palpable chemistry lighting up stages across Canada. Their debut EP Little Trophy (2023) catalyzed sold-out hometown shows in Vancouver, headlining at Edge of the World and Sunshine Music Festival, showcasing as 1 of 5 artists selected at Women in Music BC at CMW, support slots for Kimmortal, ACTORS, and Shred Kelly, and multiple Canadian Pride events including Pride Night at Rogers Arena. Little Trophy debuted at #11 on the National !Earshot Radio Charts, earned sync placements in Netflix’s My Life with the Walter Boys, and surpassed 160K streams worldwide.

Now, Hyaenas is ushering into a new era with their upcoming full length album Human Nature. Across ten tracks, they confront burnout, gender politics, internalized doubt, and the cost of adhering to the status quo. The album wrestles with what it means to take up space in a world built to contain you, and what it takes to survive with your sense of self intact. For anyone who's ever questioned their role in the story they were handed, this album offers something rare: not just catharsis, but the tools to rewrite the narrative.

Comprised of two married couples who CBC affectionately referred to as “Lesbian ABBA” - Hyaenas is carving out a space of their own with songs that hit hard and stay with you.
