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:
Freaky Boos (Joyful Joyful / Del/Liz/Joe) / The Tranzac (Tiki Room) 2020-02-05 (Wednesday – PWYC!) [FB event]
Further aligning three distinct soundworlds into a single vision on their forthcoming album (which I hear is a cracker!) Hamilton's Freaky Boos are touring up and down the 401 in celebration, meeting with like-minded community-oriented crews along the way. The stupendous drones'n'secular hymns duo Joyful Joyful just add to the goodness to be had. (Full disclosure: I'll also be playing the show as part of an as-yet unnamed trio alongside Liz Lima and Del Stephen. Expect voices, clarinet, field recordings, synths and so on.)
