The Youjsh EP Launch – Green Room – Saturday, April 24, 2010
I arrived a little bit too early for The Youjsh’s EP launch Saturday night; a show that also featured Montreal’s Tiny Dictators in the opening spot, but it was definitely worth the hour-long wait. Equally strong performances by both bands made this event worthy of an encore performance in itself.
Murder Ford Monument – Self Titled
Who was it that said music is most meaningful when it arouses some of your deepest emotions? I think that might have been me, but either way, Montreal collective Murder Ford Monument’s debut, self-titled LP is one of those albums that is best enjoyed when you invest yourself in it, rather than having it as casual background music.

Hawksley Workman – La Tulipe – Friday, April 16, 2010
Usually I’d write up some filler information to fill up some “intro” space in my review, but today I’m going to cut the crap. In one sentence, Hawksley Workman is a great performer and very entertaining to watch. This could sum up his performance at La Tulipe last night. Read more…
