Classified & SonReal (w/ JD Era) – March 11, 2016: Algonquin Commons Theatre

March 12, 2016

The Algonquin Commons Theatre is a fairly elegant venue. Comfortable chairs, a well-sized stage, and crisp sound system provide an ideal setting for, perhaps a theatre production, a school orchestra, or even a professional speaker to discuss politics or motivational behaviour tactics. But when hosting three Canadian Juno-nominated hip-hop artists for a packed show on … More Classified & SonReal (w/ JD Era) – March 11, 2016: Algonquin Commons Theatre

March 5, 2016

I hope you brought your dancing shoes. Acadian hip-hop duo Radio Radio certainly wore theirs Friday night, setting off a wild dance party at Ritual Nightclub in Ottawa.

Having just released their … More Radio Radio (w/ Alex Silas & the Subterraneans) – March 4, 2016: Ritual

Donair anyone? It was Halifax night at Ritual Nightclub in Ottawa, with East Coast indie psych-pop rock quartet Walrus opening for Canadian alternative rock veterans Wintersleep – both of which originate from the Nova Scotia capital – as the headliners promoted their newly released sixth record The Great Detachment.

Sights & Sounds – Megaphono: Feb 5, 2016

February 6, 2016

Empty art galleries make surprisingly excellent rock concert venues. The minimalist design from the contemporary building leaves plenty of room for equipment, bands, audiences, and most importantly: noise. Ottawa’s Megaphono hauled the festival across the bridge into Hull for the final day of shows, including the closing event at AxeNÉ 7. How were the shows? … More Sights & Sounds – Megaphono: Feb 5, 2016

February 4, 2016

If you haven’t head of Megaphono, that’s alright. Only in its second year, the indie festival supports the local Ottawa music scene with concerts scattered across the city in the evening, and informative panel discussions every morning and afternoon. From February 2nd to 5th, Megaphono showcases some of the best music Canada’s capital has to … More Sights & Sounds – Megaphono: Feb 3, 2016

Oktoberfest is Wunderbar! Pretzels, sauerkraut, beer, and more beer were plentiful Friday evening at Beau’s Oktoberfest. Spanning over two nights in the beautiful town of Vankleek Hill, the beer festival has become a popular right of passage into the fall months. And what else to pair with the stellar local beer than Canadian musicians? Enjoy … More Sights & Sounds: Beau’s All Natural Brewery Oktoberfest – October 2nd, 2015

Alabama Shakes (w/ July Talk) – September 24, 2015: TD Place, Ottawa

September 25, 2015

History in the making. Thursday September 24, 2015 was the first visit from southern rock band Alabama Shakes to Ottawa – we can only hope it won’t be the last. Playing to a lively crowd of just over 3,000, the Athens, Alabama natives may seem like an unlikely combination for a rock band, but their ability to … More Alabama Shakes (w/ July Talk) – September 24, 2015: TD Place, Ottawa

Sights & Sounds of CityFolk Festival: September 19, 2015

September 20, 2015

High winds, rain, and good ol’ rock n’ roll. Saturday’s lineup was wonderfully diverse: folk quartet The Barr Brothers opened the day, Arcade Fire’s Will Butler, Saskatchewan rockers The Sheepdogs, and Icelandic folk pop group Of Monsters & Men all took the stage. To capture the evening’s performances, we sent out Ottawa-based photographer Connor Evans to CityFolk. Follow him on Instagram, and … More Sights & Sounds of CityFolk Festival: September 19, 2015
