Woo! The blog is back online and we’ve got some exciting news to announce:
Indyish is launching a new season of Monthly Messes with a great big sugar-high hoedown. We’re tapping into March’s seasonal Sugar Shack madness and cooking up a bottomless batch of pancakes doused in maple syrup. Hosted by local comedian, Christophe Davidson, the [...]

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.
First, we [...]

Thanks to soundman James Finnerty and indie sponsor Solar Dog Records, the whole January Indyish Monthly Mess - the City Mess - is now available over on the Indyish podcast!
You can check out Charlotte Cornfield’s set, which for me was the bright delight surprise of the evening, and the full Save Griffin Town Presentation, [...]

What makes Montreal Montreal?
That’s what Steph Troeth and AJ Kandy asked the crowd that gathered at the City Mess last Friday night. We all recognized the images of Saint-Laurent and Mount Royal avenue, but what makes these places so distinct and so dearly loved? According to the urbanist presenters, Montreal is all about the mix: [...]

Well, tomorrow is the Indyish Monthly Mess. This is perhaps the most mind-blowing Mess for me yet, for a lot of reasons. For one, I’m really excited that we’ll have Nightwood with us, giving away exclusive EP previews of their new album, which just got picked up by local love buds Grenadine Records!!
Also, we’ve partnered [...]

Indyish’s 11th Monthly Mess brings together indie artists and indie urbanists to reflect on our experience of the city. The music, spoken word, film and images presented are all inspired by the artists’ urban experience and, with this unique show, Indyish explores the ways in which art can create collective meaning and contribute to building [...]

So I’ve been meaning to blog about probably the craziest mess that I participated in to date, but (insert valid excuse) so here it is now, short and sweet!
I was incredibly happy to have my good friends from the band Sister Suvi (check out some photos from a shoot I did with them in [...]

I thought this would be easy. I thought that putting together a show about The City would be almost too obvious. After all, we are in Montreal, arguably the indie-music capital of the North America. Artists, and especially musicians, are pulled from across the country, and across the border by the gravity of our cheap [...]

We did our first Monthly mess at the Katacombes. Janick, the owner/manager of the space, was our primary contact. She’s a bilingual passionate punk lady with dreads and smiles and stories from a history of Montreal venue management. When we went down to talk with her and to book the show, we had to fill [...]

Wednesday’s X-Mess oozed a zany holiday cheer that only Indyish could have pulled off…between the festive art market, the beer-enduced carolling, and the brilliantly punned title of the show, this night got me into the holiday spirit bigtime.
But as far as scoring points on the warm-and-fuzzies-o-meter, our venue really took the (fruit)cake. This was [...]
