This Week In Montreal

It wasn’t too long ago that Jeff Tweedy was last in Montreal playing at a sold out Olympia Theatre for over 2 hours with his band Wilco. This Friday, Tweedy will be back at L’Olympia, this time playing solo for what I’m sure will be a just as impressive amount of people. But that’s not the only good thing happening this week. Don’t miss the first annual Signal To Noise benefit concert series being put on by CJLO to raise money for CJLO and UNICEF’s Pakistan flood relief effort. The series will take place from Tuesday to Thursday this week at Casa Del Popolo and will feature some of Montreal’s best bands including Hexes & Ohs, USA out of Vietnam and Snailhouse. Here’s the full picture for this week in Montreal. Read more…

When all is said and done today we will have a nice fresh blanket of 20 centimeters of snow covering our city. This should make things interesting for those of us that like to go to concerts on a regular basis. Speaking of concerts, this week will be another excellent week of shows, so lace up your Sorels and start trudging. Marnie Stern, Alcoholic Faith Mission, We Are The City, The Zoobombs, Plants & Animals, Designer Drugs, The Two Koreas and Silk Screaming are all playing this week and you don’t want to miss them.

While a lot of us are still coming down from the high experienced last night from Arcade Fire winning the award for Album of the Year at the Grammy Awards, it’s time to get back to reality and take a look at what’s on the live music agenda for this week in Montreal.
