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:
HPR Presents: SUMMER BASS 2K15 (feat. Bile Sister / Dohn Valley / Petra Glynt / New Chance & Friends / IC/JC/VC) / The Tranzac (Main Hall) 2015-07-29 (Wednesday) [FB event]
Dress to sweat and put your dancin' shoes on as Healing Power takes over the Tranzac's Main Hall for this summer spectacular. Expect a lot of overlapping collaborations — Julie Reich brings both Bile Sister and her recent solo project Dohn Valley while Vic Cheong is playing a New Chance set as well as reuniting with Jennifer Castle and Isla Craig in "vocal yoga" trio IC/JC/VC. Plus Alex MacKenzie will be sporting some of her latest Petra Glynt styles.
