Ron Leary: "Exquisite songwriting, which melds rustic sensibilities with coffeehouse poetics and indie rock inspirations," says the Windsor Star. "Ron Leary has crafted a debut album....that wins on all fronts," says Real Detroit Weekly.

Henry Adam Svec is a folklorist and song collector. His most recent discovery, "The CFL Sessions," was uncovered at the National Archives of Canada -- tapes of Canadian football players singing their hearts out in the 1970s.  read more »

Mike Harloff Farewell Show!

Aug 30 2008 - 9:00am
Location: 
33 Yale Street

This is my last London show and it is sure to be a barn burner.  I'm lucky enough to have the State Bird of Idaho playing as well as the charming and musical talent known as Matt Henderson.

 

It's at 33 Yale Street (The Yale Street Speakeasy)

 

I have 3 new songs, a new cover, and have remixed my oldies for all you beat lovers out there.

 

Come on out and enjoy the friends and music!

 

Mike Harloff!

Location: 
London Music Club (main hall)

Hi Folks,

I've got a real keeper for you:

Vancouver's 'Fond of Tigers' are swinging through Ontario to perform @ this years Guelph Jazz Festival. While they're at it, they've decided to take a go at London. I've seen several members perform in other ensembles, and these cats are serious. Put your turtle necks away, and grab some ear plugs!

The band has invited London's 'the Riderless' to share the bill. We're thrilled.

Things will get under way by about 10pm.

Cost is $7 at the door.  read more »

"Colorlist's debut album, though in many ways audibly the product of a sonic history involving groups like Tortoise and the Sea and Cake and its many affiliates (not a total surprise that there's a guest from Isotope 217 on here), makes for one of the finer efforts in that vein in a long while, thanks to the core band's ear for beautiful, structured arrangements and moody atmospherics.  The air of careful, beautiful delicacy that informs the entire album has some astonishing high points..." - AllMusic.com  3/08   read more »
