This Week In Montreal
We’ve got a nice mixed bag this week in Montreal. From the second annual Montreal Jewish Music Festival that kicked off yesterday and will run until Wednesday to Kath Bloom’s show at Casa Del Popolo on Tuesday to some great electro shows happening later this week, there’s pretty much something for everyone. If you’re going to pick one show to go to this week we’re going to suggest you check out Male Bonding’s show that will take place at Il Motore on Thursday. These guys are popping up all over the blogosphere these days and with good reason so be sure to check them out. Here’s all the highlights for this week in Montreal. Read more…

While last week was a bit of a quiet week for shows, the Montreal concert scene gets back into full swing this week with a number of great shows. Wednesday is an especially busy night with Jeff Mangum’s highly anticipated sold out show at Cabaret Mile End, but that’s not the only show happening on Wednesday night. We’ve also got Dom and Honheehonhee playing at Il Motore and The Naked & Famous and Winter Gloves playing at La Sala Rossa. Capping off the week is what should be an epic show at Metropolis featuring Digitalism. Here’s the full picture for the week. Read more…

We’ve got a bit of a slow week ahead of us this week in Montreal when it comes to concerts. We’re not really surprised considering the folks at Osheaga brought in pretty much every band under the sun for the 2011 editon of the summer festival. But despite the fact that there isn’t much going in this week there are still a couple of really exciting shows that you should definitely check out. Tonight we’ve got Gardens & Villa and Craft Spells playing at Casa Del Popolo and if you fast-forward to Saturday we’ve got Moonface (AKA Spencer Krug of Wolf Parade) playing at Il Motore. Here’s the rest of the highlights for the week… Read more…

Festival Season kicks off this week in Montreal with the 12th annual MUTEK Festival, which celebrates electronic music in all its various forms. Headlining this year’s fest are Amon Tobin and Four Tet, but those are just two of nearly 100 artists scheduled to perform at this year’s fest. That’s not all that’s going on this week however. Lissie, Javelin, Future Islands, This Will Destroy You and Aloe Blacc all have shows lined up for this week and Montreal’s own Socalled will be launching his brand new album on Friday night at the Ukrainian Federation.

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. And unless you have the ability to split yourself in two (or three) you will probably not be able to attend even half of the great shows going on this week, but we wish you luck in your quest. Here’s the week’s many highlights. Read more…

We’ve got yet another great week of shows lined up for this week in Montreal. But what makes this week different from every other week is that this Saturday, we will be putting on a show at Bar L’Absynthe featuring two great Toronto Bands, Clothes Make The Man and Jane’s Party along with two of our favourite local acts, Burls and The Wind Up Radio Sessions. We will also be celebrating our first year anniversary on Saturday night so we hope you can all come out to celebrate with us.

Let’s be honest. We can’t expect every week to be overflowing with great shows as has been the case for the past few weeks in Montreal. There are bound to be times when things sort of quiet down before we come across things like this year’s Pop Montreal Festival in which we will all have our hands full with great concert choices. So while this week won’t go down in history as the best week for shows we’ve ever had there are still a few great bands coming to town that you should definitely check out. Highlighting this week in Montral we’ve got Admiral Radley kicking off our week tonight at Le Belmont and closing out the week we’ve got Titus Andronicus playing at Il Motore. Take a a look at the rest of what’s happening this week in Montreal.
