Last week I got to chat with a bunch of great guests for our weekly Indyish video series at Grumpy’s pub here in Montreal, including Erik Virtanen (lead singer songwriter for The Darling Demaes) and Tasha Cyr who sings with the Demaes and with Belle Isle. Today Indyish will be back at Grumpy’s from 7-9pm, [...]

Belleisle is a young group of old souls who jumped into recording to catch these sounds as they are coming together all early, earnest and yearning in the band-becoming-band process. Tasha Cyr’s voice is particularly delicate, charming, soo soul sad and careful, thoughtful, dropping soft things in her phrasing. (Tasha is recording with the Darling [...]

The Demaes are playing right now, after showing their new video for the first time (hopefully it will find it’s way on here soon, it’s ADORABLE!). Oh man, this band is really fun. This blog post is going to be similar to the stream-of-consciousness (and no spell check) of the Fringe/Osheaga days, so enjoy.

In recent sessions at James Finnerty’s we’ve got [...]

You won’t believe me but I managed to pull yet another f***up while shooting on days 3 and 4. This time however I decided I wouldn’t tell you what it is and let you figure it out on your own. If you can’t, then good for me. I swear that by the last day of [...]

The DeMaes would like to thanks Risa and everyone at Indyish for having us at the indyish Lambi show.
We were really impressed by the other bands we played with… seems the people behind the scenes have exceptionally spot-on taste… merci!
From a personal note, kudos to the Unsettlers who blew my mind. Great stuff guys!

Check it out, designed by Maryanna Hardy, one of the Indyish community developers putting together the Monthly Mess. And the first line up looks great, with a selection of short art films and readings, and performances by total bummer, humdinger, angele desjardins, and the darling demaes. More on all this of course as we get [...]
