Preview: Timber Timbre – Église St-Jean Baptiste – Tonight!
Big surprise! The awe-striking Timber Timbre and lovely Agnes Obél are going to throw one heck of a life changing experience of a show for anyone who’s been dying to hear a band play in a cathedral; also known as me. Albeit, I believe we’re all excited to see this amazing performance happen in a beautiful, immense church, with one of the most haunting and eerily beautiful acts.

Tandoori Knights – Il Motore – 30.11.11
Il Motore was fully revved on Wednesday night due to a packed house and a spicy menu as Bloodshot Bill, Crystal Stilts and Tandoori Knights took over Little Italy. Mile-Enders and Montrealers from all over answered the call to catch up with some of this city’s brightest and boldest rock n’ rollers and to be taken on a cross-continental journey of music and theatrics. As the punters shuffled in, dragging wisps of cold air behind them, the DJ played a mix of vinyl that zig-zagged between Detroit rock, British invasion, southern soul and noise rock. A good start to what turned out to be an interesting and eclectic evening. Read more…

The Sheepdogs – Cabaret Mile-End – 29.11.11
The Sheepdogs and Monster Truck pulled up outside Le Cabaret du Mile End for the Montreal stop on their Canadian tour to showcase a little of their respective hometowns for a hungry crowd. A wet and chilly Tuesday night did nothing dampen the spirits of the bands’ fan base, which ranged from young to old, frat boy to fan girl, and everyone in between. Given the success of The Sheepdogs media and tour driven journey, it was no surprise to see some music industry types surveying the open concept venue and anxiously awaiting the arrival of the only unsigned band to ever grace the cover of Rolling Stone magazine. Dr. Hook would have been proud. Read more…
