A year's recap
- 2008-03-12 - Jeff
Since it's been a year since the last time I updated the news, I thought a recap might be in order.
It's been an amazing ride so far, with so much up and coming. Carl! was a huge success and we have another planned for the final weekend of April again this year. We opened the house gallery in October, and featured some amazing art. We've had infinity amazing shows, a change of landlords and have much more mindblowing amazingness planned to come!
Sincerely, your friendly neighbourhood alternative music space.
Carl!

Keep your ears open for Carl! And your schedule open April 27-29.

One year anniversary show!
- 2006-11-02 - Jeff
On November 12th, it will be one year, to the day, since our first 130 King St.
North house show, and we're inviting everyone back for a commemorative bash!
As a featured performer of that first show, it's only fitting that we'll be
welcoming back our good friend, Richard Laviolette. Touring with him, here
then out east, will be the haunting sounds of Halifax's Ghost Bees. And to
round out the evening, a long-time favourite of ours, Ryan Stanley. This is
going to be a night of celebration, filled with great music and grand ideas. I
look forward to seeing everyone out!

130 King St. N House Show
Liv Carrow, Dibs & Richard Laviolette
Sunday, July 6, 2008
Consider this a special surprise. Or a make-up show. Or the very best thing to happen so far, this summer. In any case, it's special. And you should love it. Even the idea of it. We're breaking our extremely strict no-shows-in-July policy just this once, for a very special performance from some very special friends. We'll be welcoming into Canada, our friend Liv Carrow, whom you've seen play with Griffin innumerable times, memorable each. And with her will be fellow New York anti-folk inspiration, Dibs! And with them will be our best of friends, Guelph's Richard Laviolette. He'll be triumphantly returning after a long absence and we're extremely lucky to have him. Every occasion you have to see this fine man, is a moment to cherish.
Liv Carrow
- Brooklyn - well intentioned earnestness cranked up to like...13
Dibs
- Brooklyn - quirky new york anti-folk with an understated sincerity
Richard Laviolette
- Guelph - comfortable familiarity of childhood's memories grown up

Chemical Swings
Singer/Songwriter Philip Shearing started the Chemical Swings in the spring of 2006. Touring Ontario with the Get Sets in the summer of 2006, the Chemical Swings have played with acts such as These Electric Lives, Mit City, Radius & Helena, Mile Over Mecca, Uncle Daddy, and Campfire Bonfire. Their single "Raw" is scheduled to appear on a new Toronto sitcom ("Modern Convenience") which will air in the fall of 2006. Also, the Swings plan to record a full length album in the next few months. Despite a couple of lineup changes (and a suckerpunch or two), the Chemical Swings are still forging on like brave little fire ants. (Since Phil is the only remaining member, it is kind of silly to refer to the band in a plural sense, isn't it?) If you are a bass player, a drummer, or a keyboardist, please let Phil know so he can set up an audition of some sort...
