Wonderful show at Irene’s Pub with Mauno, Fenster and JK3 on November 23, 2018. Ottawa’s JK3 kicked off the show with some cool jazz funky music. The drummer Jeff Kingsbury did a funny pre-recorded portion about the band with a monotone voice. Great way to warm up the crowd. 8/10. Berlin’s Fenster was second and …
When the NAC announced their fall season for 2018 and Electronic act A Tribe Called Red was on the list. People were wondering how they were going to pull off a show in the Babs Asper Theatre where it was going to sit your butt kind of show? They added special guest Jeremy Dutcher, respectfulchild …
Girls+ Rock Ottawa with collaboration with Anakbayan Ottawa (Who provided the amazing food!) presented a wonderful packed show at General Assembly with Pantayo and Scary Bear Soundtrack.

Monday nights can be a tough sell for bands to play in Ottawa. But I wanted to see two acts that are on Polyvinyl Records. It was The Dodos and Palehound. Starting off the set was Boston’s Palehound. I was hoping for something loud but it was more of a moody indie rock set. Also …

Chilly is currently promoting his new album Solo Piano III. First half hour was very brilliant and captivating of Chilly tickling the ivory keys of …
