The Strumbellas bring something different to JUNOfest with an entertaining afternoon kids rock show!
This year at JUNOfest, The Strumbellas delivered something a little different – an afternoon rock show for kids. Knowing that my 2 boys like them, I grabbed tickets as soon as they were available, so I could share a concert experience with them.
Mother Mother Deliver Something Sweet at the National Arts Centre
The National Arts Centre is a really spectacular venue for a concert of any size and magnitude. Even more so when the musical artist on the stage is pouring their heart out and the audience is electric. That was just the case this past Friday night, as a capacity crowd of passionate Canadian music lovers arose from their seats and ignored the sitting room guidelines to celebrate the ever-evolving indie dream-rock sounds of Mother Mother.
Music Magic in London with The Cadillac Three
For concert goers (who, let’s face it, is essentially our entire readership so you’ll know exactly what I’m talking about) there are those rare and elusive nights that I like to call “Music Magic.” The fans know it; the band knows it; and as you’re leaving you can hear everyone in the audience saying a variation of the same thing: “That was unbelievable!” On August 31st at Cowboy’s Ranch in London, Ontario The Cadillac Three made music magic.
Chad Brownlee Set Bala’s Hearts On Fire

Sloan strikes One Chord to Another in London
Canadian alternative rock icons from the 90’s, Sloan, made a stop in London on May 10th on their,”One Chord to Another”, tour. The tour is promoting their recently released box set that includes all the hits of that past 25 years. London Music Hall played host to this awesome night of music and those in the club got what they came for – Sloan, and lots of it.
No Evil Ways, Santana was Pure Magic!
What an amazing treat it was Friday night to take in the Santana show at Casino Rama. We’re talking about one of music’s icons, and premiere guitarists. I felt very fortunate to have had the opportunity to photograph and review this performance. Right from the opening bars of Soul Sacrifice, we were all captivated by the sweet and unmistakable sounds of Carlos Santana’s guitar playing. He has a tone and style like no other, and when he sauntered onto the stage, with his sparkling gold guitar and wearing his fedora, the jammed packed theatre rose up and greeted Carlos and his 10 piece band.
Eli Young Band not a Gamble at Casino Rama….
A little bit of Texas came to Canada! The Eli Young Band took a right turn into southern Ontario for a couple of shows this week. So glad they did.
