So during the first season, originally we did for episode 6 a show about side projects by bands and why they might want to form a side project or a solo piece. However, seeing how general and easy that is we'll put that one aside for another day and do something even BIGGER and BETTER!!! CAUTION: It may blow your mind! (more...)

So tonight we now are back to our regular schedule of having a show every Friday from now onwards! In any case, tonight's episode will take you on a plane ride all around the world seeing rock artists that have originated out of various places of our globe. Places on our two hour tour include Australia, Finland, South Africa, Sweden, Spain, Iceland, and so many more. (more...)

Hey Every1!

So, first off I just wanted to say Happy Canada Day!!! I got a ton of fireworks in the back of my car so you know exactly what I plan to do after the show tonight! (more...)

Hey Every1!

So tonight is going to be another Summer Bonus Episode because it is that time of the month! No...not that time of the month but yes it is our New Rock Update where new music and bands are explored and discovered for you all to enjoy. So you probably know the drill by now. There will be a whole lot of bands being played today including three new artists from within the Ontario region: Fade Chromatic, The Daily Times, and We Are Bravest! More information about each of these bands to come during the show! But for now, here's some artists that are going to be played tonight with some new music on the loose!

Hey Every1!

So on this weeks episode will focus on the instrumentation of bands and songs and the different instruments included. From piano, strings, woodwinds, brass, and symphonies this episode will showcase the variety of instruments used and how they can be applied to make our music we listen to more diverse. In this episode will include artists from:

-Arcade Fire
-Apocalyptica
-Muse
-C0ndu1t
-The White Stripes

Also, I want to encourage everybody to go and check out Maxwell's Music House for a show tonight at 9pm. This show will feature two of the many artists featured on New Rock Edge: Air Marshal Landing and Sea To Sky. These two bands are simply phenomenal and playing together for a show is even more stellar. I want to encourage each and every one of you to try and come out for the show. Tickets are $5 but there's also going to be a secret surprise over there that hopefully everybody can share! Wanna know what it is, go to the show and find out!

Hey Every1!

So I know this message breaks the group cycle and all but I want to strongly encourage each and every one of you (that s if you're in Waterloo) to come over to Maxwell's Music House tonight for the KiJengle Benefit Concert.

KiJengle is a company that is strongly dedicated to assisting others with music education and music therapy to our community. This benefit concert is meant to raise money for new instruments as well as the inclusion of new music therapy services offered at the upcoming new location here in Kitchener-Waterloo. Please try and make it out. Tickets are $10 but in return there's going to be a great night of instrumental bands and songwriters including:

Mandippal Jandu
Red City
Far From Rich

and of course, WLU's Battle of the Band winners FUNK IN THE OVEN!

So, if you want to come out and support your local musicians, dance, have nothing else better to do, and just have an overall great time on a Sunday evening then come over to Maxwell's Music House (220 King Street North, right behind Phil's) and listen to some great music for a great cause!
