Another night this week at Club Saw. This time it was a home welcoming show for two musicians who used to live in Ottawa and currently living in Montreal. Starting off the show was mal/aimé. Again it was a solo set by Yolande since the other members were busy. Lovely 20 minute set of a …
There was no way of missing out this show on February 7, 2020 at Club Saw (Galerie Saw Gallery). It was a year ago I saw Jeremie Albino perform at Megaphono during an afternoon showcase in Elmdale Tavern. After dropping his debut album Hard Times last year, the wait was over for Ottawa audiences to …

Second night this week at Cinqhole. Performing that night was Peel Dream Magazine, Acapulco Gold and Fire Antlers. The band I was excited to see was the NYC band Peel Dream Magazine.

Friday night at Cinqhole with Material Girls and Siberian Breaks. Miraculously the Atlanta band Material Girls made their way to Ottawa because from Toronto their van broke down and had to get a replacement van. There is a GoFundMe page to help them with their cost. So the show was running a little late. I …

They are signed to Paper Bag Records, …
Toronto’s Jaunt and Hamilton’s Dan Edmonds stopped by Pressed on January 29, 2020. Starting off the show was Dan Edmonds who recently released his second album Softie last fall. Performed an solo acoustic set which was intimate and wonderful. Then it was Jaunt’s turn to perform. This was the first time with Caitlin Woelfle O’Brien …
Pretty decent and fun Sunday night show at Live on Elgin with Montreal’s Caveboy. They stopped by the city to promote their long awaited album Night in the Park, Kiss in the Dark. Listen to the interview I did with Caveboy on January 20, 2020. Really enjoyed their set alot with their synth pop music! …
Saturday night at Cinqhole and I didn’t want to miss out the Toronto-based band called BisonBison. They are producers Dani Ramez and Chad Skinner alongside Caribou drummer Brad Weber, harpist Sinéad Bermingham, and vocalist Sophia Alexandra. The band was in Ottawa to do an early album release for Hover which doesn’t come out until February …
Shamelessly enough I had to go to Algonquin Commons Theatre to check out DJ Pauly D and Teddy Rose. There was nothing happening that night so why not? It was quite something and I will leave at that. At least Pauly D made it in Ottawa or at least pass the border. Anyways check out …
