Top 5 shows of the weekend it

Happy 4th of July! Chances are you’re at a BBQ or otherwise imbibing and having fun instead of reading this already, but so long as you didn’t party too hard, there are some excellent shows to catch up with in the next few days. Personally, we’ve got the AC cranked, the cocktails batched, the dog tuckered out […]

Top 5 shows of the weekend

I take every opportunity to wax lyrical about Chilean psych bands when they come to town, but sadly The Holydrug Couple‘s show at Public Arts on Friday was canceled as the band could not make it. Alas, hopefully there will be another opportunity to hear about how their most recent release, Hyper Super Mega is an excellent addition […]

Happy February everyone! While some may consider it the worst month, it may come as sweet relief to those who managed to survive a dry January. This weekend is a time to celebrate local talent and enjoy something a little up close and personal.

2017 Northside Music Festival guide

While Memorial Day is supposed to officially signal the start of summer, there’s nothing like the Northside Festival that really makes it feel like the season is here; it may just be our favourite part of the year. With over 300 bands playing this time around it’s impossible to see everything, so we’re here to […]

While some of the major players have already announced their summer festival lineups (Panorama / Govball), which admittedly doesn’t seem too far away with today’s high of 15 degrees C, but let’s stick with the present. We only have one more weekend until an orange clown has the nuclear codes, so maybe we should just […]
