Electro Quarterstaff is an instrumental metal band hailing from Winnipeg, Manitoba, Canada.
Initially consisting of three guitarists, a vocalist and a drummer,[2] they added a bassist to their line-up in winter 2006 and played their first show with him in autumn 2007.
The band is named for a weapon in the Canadian cartoon Rocket Robin Hood.
They later signed with Willowtip Records for their debut full-length album in 2006, Gretzky,[4] which included rerecorded and reworked versions of their earlier tracks.
Also in 2006 they toured the United States and Canada for the first time,[5] which included a performance at the Maryland Deathfest.
