I told Risa and Tessa a while back that I was going to start putting some music up online for people to check out (Actually it was Tessa’s idea in the first place). I make lots of demos and musical experiments, some are poppy and polished, some are experimental and lo-fi (some can barely [...]

Check out the poster for the MonthlyMess coming up, it’s a big party for Indyish.com’s 2nd Birthday (we love birthdays) and we’re just celebrating with as much art and live music and sound and story and film and dance as we can possibly cram into one evening at La Sala Rossa. The mood will be [...]

I had breakfast this morning at Dusty’s on Parc with Risa, Elran, Sarah, Marilis, Tristan, and Tyler. We talked about the upcoming Indyish 2nd Birthday Mega Mess and schemed about other projects, like having a perma-space to do interviews with artists (Risa is continuing her Tete a Tete video series with a few interviews tomorrow [...]

My band Nightwood is launching the Big City E.P. next weekend (more soon) and will be kicking off a small Ontario and Quebec tour, our first ever! We’re super happy to be a trio because that means we fit snuggly into Erin’s vehicle. I’m going to bring my super8 camera and diary to [...]

Here are some photos from last weekend’s art opening for Hot Hot Gold by Tyler Rauman.

In January, it takes a lot to get the average person [...]

Much thanks should go out to Blue Skies Turn Black for having sought out and tunneled plein de cool into Montreal here over the years. They teamed with Friendship Cove to throw the birthday party that shook city blocks last week; here’s my quick little review with some photos from Marilis Cardinal.
Telefauna was singalongloudable, [...]

Seeing as yesterday was almost 30 degress with the humidity, tonight’s event at Main Hall isn’t going to be as much a study in contrasts as perhaps originally intended.
Worn Fashion Journal is launching its 5th issue and, as to be expected, is doing it in style. Previous parties were known for their elaborate fashion [...]

Hola folks! Bloggin’ from the Osheaga Festival! Yeaaaaaaaah! Tessa just got here with some sunscreen so I can stop obsessing about skin cancer. The 4 of us (with Alanah and our new buddy Bradley) just got back from Thunderheist at the MEG stage. Let’s just say a whole lot of sweat was shed. Shed? Can [...]
