No Aloha Live @ CJLO

No Aloha is four chill dudes from Montreal who write sick pop tunes influenced by garage rock and psych. They played a couple of shows at this years Pop Montreal, so we decided to invite them by for our Pop Montreal sessions series. These tracks are a good ol' gritty time. They go down smooth, like a 6 pack of cheap beer on a hot sunny day.

White Reaper Live @ CJLO

"White Reaper are a group of nice kids from Kentucky. The last time they were in town (November 2014) they popped in at CJLO for a session and interview in The Oven. Their energetic and economical power pop zipped along with catchy hooks and boisterous choruses filling the room with quick bursts of noise.

Icky Blossoms Live @ CJLO

In town the previous night opening for the Faint's Danse Macabre 10th anniversary tour in early December 2012, Omaha electro-rock band Icky Blossoms dropped by The Oven the following morning to record a session for "Hooked on Sonics".  As tired as they may have told us they were, the trio definitely didn't seem so, burning through four songs off of their self titled debut release for Saddle Creek records and even sitting around to chat.

Broncho Live @ CJLO

Oklahoma band Broncho brought their zippy rock tunes to The Oven here at CJLO to record a set of four tracks from their album Just Enough Hip to Be Woman. We've been fans of the band over at CJLO since their debut record, so it was a pleasure to have them by to record a session for us. Catch 'em on tour as it seems they're on the road forever.

Caro Diaro Live @ CJLO

We invited Caro Diaro (Maica Armata of Maica Mia) to stop by our Oven studio during our re-launch event and play a stripped down session in the newly renovated room. The results were stunning, as she played three hauntingly beautiful, new tracks during a live broadcast on Fear of Music.
