Out of the woods and into the WECC!<\/p>\n

Red Moon Road has returned to civilization from their recording session in a remote log cabin and will release the aptly titled Tales From The Whiteshell<\/em>, Thursday March 28th<\/sup>\u00a0in fully accessible West End Cultural Centre (586 Ellice Ave at Sherbrook).\u00a0\u00a0The all-star trio\u2019s music is a blend of roots and bluegrass, their songs are inspired by the natural beauty of Manitoba, and they sing wonderfully together.<\/p>\n

The night begins with a songwriter\u2019s circle featuring four of Red Moon Road\u2019s favourite artists:\u00a0\u00a0Don Amero, JD Edwards, Beth Hamilton, and Sol James.<\/p>\n

Doors open at 7:15pm and the show begins at 8:00. –<\/em>\u00a0BT<\/strong><\/p>\n

Story Songs from Smalltown, Manitoba<\/p>\n

Rob Waddell is about as folkie as one can be. He was raised without television in a small town where everyone knows everyone, has a warm, soothing voice, and performs solo.\u00a0\u00a0However, his new album features a full band, and so will Saturday\u2019s release party at the Park Theatre (698 Osborne St) for Everything is From Now On.<\/em> \u00a0A special treat given that friends coerced him into it, the original plan being a solo show.<\/p>\n

Another treat is opener Lindsay Jane, a fine singer-songwriter in her right.<\/p>\n

Doors open at 7:15pm and the shows goes on at 8:00.\u00a0<\/em>-BT<\/strong><\/p>\n

The time has come to take off those winter boots and put on your dancing shoes.<\/p>\n

Edmonton\u2019s electronic\/dance\/punk outfit Shout Out Out Out Out <\/a>are playing the Pyramid this Saturday with Dear Rouge and Hana LuLu, but I\u2019m most excited to see local electro-pop trio Vikings<\/a> do their thing.
\n<\/a><\/p>\n

I got my hands on some of Vikings yet-to-be-released recordings earlier this month, and if their live show is as impressive as their energetic style of sonic majesty, then don\u2019t be surprised if they outshine the headliners.<\/p>\n

Advance tickets are $8 at Kustom Kulture and Into The Music.\u00a0<\/i>-MD<\/strong><\/p>\n

This weekend get yourselves ready for the debut of Lonewolfe. Helping Lonewolfe with their debut will be The Revival<\/a>, a mixture of classic rock\u2019n\u2019roll with dance and psychedelia, as well as Kids & Heroes<\/a>, American styled pop punk rockers, and last but not least Les Sexy<\/a>, the francophonie punk group described as \u201ca grittier, dirtier band than yours.\u201d Don\u2019t miss this fantastic evening of every kind of punk and rock\u2019n\u2019roll you could ask for.<\/p>\n

Takes place at The Windsor Hotel (187 Garry Street). Tickets are only $8 (which is a measly $2 per band), and gets underway at 10pm. <\/i>-SD<\/b><\/p>\n

This ain’t no April Fools joke, you sons of guns. NGTV SPC is playing host to a punk as fuck evening of raging Easter Monday.<\/p>\n

Local openers Salt Lick and Breath Grenades<\/a> get things going at “7pm sharp” (according to the posters plastered around town), so be sure to get to the back door early, ear protection firmly in place.<\/p>\n

Next up is Vancouver’s Systematik, a punishing band with a new LP on Deranged Records, and featuring my old buddy Todd, who has been grinding away in awesome punk bands for the last ten years.<\/p>\n

Top of the list, though, is White Lung<\/a>, who are exploding right now. They were all over SXSW a couple weeks back, and their star is just beginning to rise. Heavy as fuck, too. This show is going to be awesome.<\/p>\n

Show starts at 7pm “sharp” at NGTV SPC. Cost is 7 bucks, as far as I can tell. Party on.\u00a0<\/strong><\/em>-SB<\/strong><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
