You can read more about why I'm doing listings here. Long story short: This curated and decidedly non-comprehensive list contains nothin' but shows that I am going to/would go to if I had more time.
Gig of the week — loud:
The Beverleys [EP Release Show!] (Greys / Wish / Mexican Slang) / Sneaky Dee's 2013-02-28 (Friday) [FB event]
It's been a bit of an extra wait for The Beverleys' first EP to come out on beloved local imprint Buzz Records, but this lineup certainly makes up for it.
Gig of the week — not loud:
Flowchart (feat. Victoria Cheong / Amelia Ehrhardt / Steve Kado) / Artscape Youngplace 2014-02-27 (Thursday) [FB event]
First show in a new performance series curated by Amelia Ehrhardt promises to throw together artists working in different media, and should be a great point of entry for anyone wanting to dip their toes in the city's rich dance scene. (also: a chance to visit the new Artscape facility on Shaw Street!)
