Someday this space might be mostly concert listings again, but for now Monday roundups might include a romp through the MFS archives, some bandcamp suggestions, nods to a few livestreams, and sundry community notes (email me if you have anything that needs broadcast in the latter category!).
Community notes:
- Very happy to see a couple fab show announcements from the Music Gallery (you'll see 'em in the listings below) but equally intriguing is a special event called "These Instruments of Ours", co-presented with Labyrinth Ontario, that's happening on Sunday (May 29th). Billed as "an afternoon of musical discovery," this family-friendly music event brings together short musical performances and a chance to play, test and learn about different musical instruments: "touch and explore instruments that are familiar or new to you... Explore string instruments, frame drums, rubab, saz, baglama, greek lyra, tar, setar, tombak and more." In a time where music has become less tactile and immediate, this serves as a wonderful opportunity to engage with the physical origins of some lovely sounds.
Video hits:
- Nifty new video from Psychic Weapons, locking in to some of the postpunk insecurities of our times:
