DUBBS Shocks The House

November 22nd, 2010

Imagine seeing an electro-group that has the talent to not only make an impact but pioneer a new trend in the electro-music industry. Not cool enough? How about having the credibility of touring alongside electro-titans like Steve Aoki and LMFAO. Still need more? Well, what if I said they’re doing all that as an unsigned [...]

Static In The Stars Play Indie Week Toronto

October 26th, 2010

Static In The Stars describe themselves as “Combining 80′s cock rock with modern influences like Anberlin and the Foo Fighters they have created a new brand of straight ahead rock and roll that sets no boundaries and takes no prisoners” – a hell of a statement. But if there’s anything I’ve learned from these Calgary [...]

Indie Week Toronto in Review

October 26th, 2010

Just one night of music is simply not enough anymore. Suddenly, my weekend is overcome with an overwhelming need (yes, need!) to get out in this beautiful city of ours, [...]

Do Make Say Think Get Greedy in Toronto!

October 14th, 2010

Do Make Say Think can perform for two straight hours with a scary silent film in the background and still literally do, make, say, and think anything they want – they are that good!

Much got a chance to chat with the band as they played LIVE alongside members of Broken Social Scene and The Weakerthans to a packed Tiff Bell Lightbox theatre in Toronto. The attraction: the sinister 1924 Silent film “Greed”.

And let me tell you, this was no ordinary night at the movies!

A solo City and Colour is enough to fill an Amphitheatre

August 31st, 2010

Though most of the big draw rock-fests were nestled firmly away in other cities, Toronto, blessed with amazing outdoor weather this summer, has gone music crazy. Indeed, without even the safe confines of my media tickets, I too managed to spend well over $1,000 in concert stubs to be added to my collection later. So [...]

Drake brings it home with the OVO Fest

August 3rd, 2010
