Moon King – “Apocalypse” / Debut Full-Length April 14

March 29, 2015

Yours truly is still a little sad about CBC Radio 3 dumping their live announcers, and as always, incredibly frustrated by the station not updating their artist/title information properly on satellite. Which is why I had to search the “playlog” to figure out who this band was. Their track “Apocalypse” came on this morning after [...]

Megan Nash – “Song Harvest Volume One”

March 19, 2015

Megan Nash’s new album “Song Harvest Volume One” (released just two scant days ago) reminds me a lot of my wife’s favourite artist, Brandi Carlile.

Other Lives – “Reconfiguration”

March 17, 2015

I love the way this song positions itself just before heading into that cool little bass groove. Other Lives’ “Rituals” is due out May 4th on tbd Records, nearly four years after their sophomore album “Tamer Animals”.

The photo you’re looking at, courtesy of Google of course, is of Venture Out RV Resort in Mesa, Arizona. Which, for those of you who haven’t seen it yet, is the image on the cover of the new Modest Mouse album, “Strangers To Ourselves”, which is out today. Cropped and magnified, obviously.

On Fender And Jaguars

March 16, 2015

Busy little weekend. Didn’t see any shows, though I did consider the Language Arts gig. There were, however, a couple of music-related episodes that I thought I’d share. Saturday afternoon I found myself at Long & McQuade’s northside store, as Fender’s western Canadian sales rep Peter Davyduck was in town again. Last year, it might [...]
