]]>New Show on satyuday night was telekinisis and Cut off your hands and Ra ra Riot
Cut off your hands
Amazing band straight out of New zeland. Richards on richards was their first stop in canada on their tour. They are a great band with a i guess you could say newzeland/british feel. The Leadsinger was very animantes even throwing his own mike stand up into the air and catching it. you can check them out www.myspace.com/cutoffyourhands i say listen to their tracks and even check out the video oh girl that will be featured on music and news on tuesday febuary 24th
You can Check out Telekinesis at their my space which i recommend because they are amazing and cool fact they are very close to home being from Seattle Washington just south of the boarder from Civl Radio. chris walla was also involved in making their new record which is exciting. take a listen on their myspace www.myspace.com/telekinesismusic . Random fact their lead singer is actually the drummer for the band, and the kit was set up in the very front of the Stage. cool beans. After the Set i saw the lead singer traving around the club and i got to meet him.
unfortunatly i did not get to catch Ra ra Riot but im sure they were amazing as ushual.
you can look forward to hearing from both bands this week on music and news
]]>now rather than just listening to death cab and many other tracks related to just one type of music all the shows are broader. every week i hope to bring you something new and of course something old,and of course with time music changes but for now because its the holiday season we are keeping it to holiday flavor.
i hope everyone has a great holiday and music and news will be live during the holiday break
Much love guys
