The nice weather brings out the neighbours, gets folks on the street, chatting about winter issues and Spring plans. Those who have been woodshedding projects bring them out and its time now to see what the artists have been making. My child and his pals are among those airing out songs in public. They have a band, Mary & Adelaide. They have a show at the Diezel Room, DT Oshawa on Friday, April 12. They are on a bill with Montrealers, Jitensha, an indie folk duo, also airing out songs and taking them on the road. Jitensha will kick off this open mic and the brilliance of Jadea Kelly will dispel any winter hangovers with her Old Weird America cover of “Amazing Grace”. Pup, Haviah Mighty, and my one of my fave acts Operators also drop by,

Jitensha's song 'Gospel Blues,' the final track from their 2014 Album, BUCK MOON. Images of a summer day in Hamilton, ON.

C'est un très beau vendredi automnal ici à Montréal et on veut partager une autre vidéo avec vous! Notre première vidéo originale de notre prochain album, cette chanson s'appelle "Birds of Paradise."
