Collie Buddz + New Kingston + Los Rakas @ Club Soda

Finally the Buddz come around! Collie Buddz (born Colin Harper), dancehall/ reggae artist, paid Montrealers a visit on Wednesday, April 6th at Club Soda as part of his Playback Tour.


PS I Love You talk about Perfect Strangers, Gene Simmons & Other Things

 

After releasing their critically acclaimed (and much buzzed about) debut full lengthMeet Me at the Muster Station on one of our favourite labels around CJLO, Paper Bag Records, Kingston noise-pop duo PS I Love You dropped by the CJLO studios to record a session and interview.


Black Joe Lewis & The Honeybears @ La Sala Rossa

Black Joe Lewis & The Honeybears recently made their fourth visit to Montreal in only three years; that's an impressive amount of shows for any out-of-town band, but for a seven-piece band from Austin, Texas it is almost unheard of. It is also proof that they are willing to do whatever it takes to win over this city despite the complete lack of commercial radio support.


The Raveonettes + Tamaryn @ La Tulipe

Last Friday night saw The Raveonettes return to the stage at La Tulipe, celebrating the release of their new album Raven in the Grave. Tamaryn opened with dripping, reverb-infused goth tunes, playing to a mighty crowd of twenty-something music nerds. By the time The Raveonettes took to the stage, the audience was ripe with anticipation.


Nelly + St. Lunatics + Cali Swag District + Page @ Metropolis

When I heard Nelly would be coming to Montreal I was pretty excited. In 2000 Country Grammar was released as Nelly's first solo project and the single of the same name became a number one hit. I loved the song; I knew it by heart, but, to be honest, I had no real clue what it was about. With references to a “street sweeper” and something about puff and pass, I was somewhat lost.
