So much going on in the Peg these days, I can barely keep up (that and the opening-round frenzy of the NHL playoffs is keeping me interminably distracted).
The lineup for the loosely-defined Jazz Fest was dropped recently, and there are some terrifically awesome performers stopping by our humble hamlet.
Highlights...
Indie-rockers The Sea and Cake (above) play the Pyramid on June 30th with local favs The Liptonians.
Celebrate the birth of this fine nation with Land of Talk at the Pyramid on July 1st. I'll likely be there (and at Sea and Cake).
Swedish indie-folk sensation Jose Gonzalez returns to Winnipeg, playing the West End on June 27th.
Indie-electronic duo BEAST play a FREE gig at Old Market Square on July 4th AND on July 5th.
Alice Russell is at the Pyramid on June 27th w/ Mama Cutsworth and Miss Brown.
Blues legend Buddy Guy stops by The Pantages on June 27th w/ Big Dave McLean.
The rest of the illustrious, busy schedule can be found here.
Metric are playing a free acoustic show at the Pyramid in two days and according to the Pyramid's site, the only way to get in is to win tix from Curve (or presumably have connections at the Pyramid or Curve? I'm just saying...).
The Stills' May 16th concert at the Garrick is now at the Pyramid.
Mother Mother, a Vancouver-based pop-rock band whose popularity is ever-increasing, are at the Pyramid on May 22nd.
Totally Ripped and Sex Negatives will be at the Albert on June 3rd.
Infinite Playlist: Peter Bjorn and John - Living Thing
