Feature: Tiny Danza, Toronto’s not-so-hidden stage commanders
We chat with Tiny Danza about the music, what’s in store for the year and what life’s been like since their Indie Week win

February 1, 2012
It’s dark and I’m crammed into a back corner with 2/5 members from Toronto’s Tiny Danza . The room is full of, well, seemingly everyone: photographers, pretty girls, hipster boys, sunglasses, non-participating band members.

For most new recording artists, the process of mastering can seem elusive. The art seems so wrapped in secrecy and confusion you would expect it to be done by members of the illuminati reciting dark incantations in some Masonic back room. In reality it is the art...
Live Review: Anna Calvi @ Lee’s Palace in Toronto Dec 8
Just She and Her Guitar

December 14, 2011
Mothers, bring your young daughters: the Anna Calvi route is female values wrapped up in a bow. While Thursday’s performance at Lee’s Palace played to a wider demographic of the 19+, the British artist managed to exceed already high hopes with her on-stage aloof and a couple of electrics.
Live Review: Austra play Toronto’s Phoenix Dec 1, 2011 with Young Galaxy and Tasseomancy

Rousing a crowd comes easily to Austra and its posse of interchanging stage-friends. Alongside Katie Stelmanis’ iced (and increasingly signature) operatics, the band’s homecoming show at the Phoenix last Thursday pledged theatrics and the posture of a group in its prime state of mind.

Playdeaf

The Super Sexy Market
is definitely super sexy. With its sultry, biting lyrics and deep, dark rock, it’s an album you can strip to (if you’re into that sort of thing). It is definitely intense. Vocalist/guitarist Playdeaf J...

Rob Dyer Is A Hero

By dictionary definition, Rob Dyer is a hero. The small, tattooed skater would probably laugh at this statement; shyly send his appreciations for the sentiment then move on to a different topic. But according to the Oxford English dictionary, Dyer is just ...
