K-Os – Club Soda – 12.10.2011
K-Os made a return to Montreal this weekend, supported by Toronto’s up-and-coming The Dirty Mags. Although they were at opposite end’s of the music spectrum next to K-Os, they captured the audience with their buzzing energy and thrashing guitars. K-Os, as always, put on an a jaw-dropping show filled with dancing, big smiles and great energy. Take a look at some of our photos we grabbed from the night.

Montrealers should really feel lucky this week.

The Jazz Fest takes full swing this week with a variety of amazing shows going on all over the city.

This Week In Montreal
Festivals galore! While this year’s Suoni Per Il Popolo Festival may be coming to an end this week with performances by Chad VanGaalen, The Strange Boys, Dirty Beaches, D’Eon and more, this week also marks the beginning of this year’s Montreal Jazz Festival. And what better way to kick off this year’s fest than with back to back performances by the legendary Prince at Metropolis. But don’t get too excited unless you already have tickets because both nights are sold out. There are also some great smaller shows going on this week at Club Lambi, Il Motore and Cabaret Mile End so be sure to check them out as well. Here’s all the highlights from a very busy week in Montreal. Read more…

For once Montrealer’s were eager; and with Smith Westerns and HUSH HUSH opening for the epic Yeasayer, it’s no surprise. Read more…

This Week In Montreal
While the thing that people will probably remember most about this week is the fact that Godspeed You! Black Emperor will make their long awaited return to the stage, we assure you there will be many other things to remember this week. How about the fact that this will be one of the best weeks for live music in Montreal that we have seen in quite awhile.

Here’s the week’s many highlights. Read more…

This Week In Montreal
While there isn’t much going on in the city tonight, strap your boots on because from Tuesday on the week will just get better and better. Tuesday, Friday and Saturday will be especially tough days to choose a concert since there are at least three great options each night but if you are looking for a show on Wednesday night we’d like to turn your attention to the Arbutus Records fundraiser that will be going on at Casa Del Popolo. The local label will be raising money for the release of Tonstartssbandht‘s Now I Am Become LP that will be released in May and along with Andy Summers from the band performing, Makeout Videotape and Pop Winds will also play. Here’s the full list of highlights for this week.
