The Paint Movement CD Release Sept 9th @ the Horseshoe Tavern

The Paint Movement, back from a east coast stint, are performing a CD Release show at the Legendary Horseshoe Tavern on Friday Sept 9th featuring their self titled debut on Nevado Records . The CD and itunes DD are available now from www.NevadoRecords.com.

I was lucky to catch them opening for fellow Nevado recording artists Yukon Blonde a few months back and was impressed with their live performance, ‘wall of sound’ type sound and enthusiasm.

The Paint Movement hit the stage @ midnight, opening acts are The Elwins @ 9:45pm, Still Life Still @ 10:45pm. Tickets are $8.00 at the door (as far as I can find out anyway) or from the front bar.

Aretha Franklin @ Toronto Jazz Festival

One of the many festivals to grace this city is the Toronto Jazz festival. This year it started off with a unique opportunity to see one of the great’s, Aretha Franklin, the Queen of Soul, performing a free show at Metro Square to kick start the festival. Thousands attended, some lucky to be close up to the stage, others watching the performance on video screens. I was one of the lucky ones,  here is a selection. And a link to the full gallery at the bottom.
