Slowcity.ca Open Mic with Sarah Neufeld, LAL, Autogramm, Rich Aucoin, Islands, The Lagoons, Ormiston, Black River Delta, and TEKE::TEKE

Will McGuirk April 16, 2021

By Will McGuirk

As we prepare to repeat, we can see the repetition, with the addition of time, as stasis. Yes you are here. . . again.

"'. . . it’s just me, centered in the whirlwind of my own creation. “The Top” represents change, and the struggle in making peace with oneself." - Sarah Neufeld

“I would not be where I am today without women like Rita, and my mother, who taught me that the power of strength to rise up and be strong is within us all. This recording and video are a tribute to them, and to any human who has felt the fight and is still fighting.” - Jenn Grant

“The lyrics of “Mantra” describe a certain relationship to satori, meditation, focus/flow, repetition, mind/no mind, of being in the zone. - director Shayne Ehman

Slowcity.ca Open Mic -post Moonshine edition with Donovan Woods, Nathaniel Rateliff, Marcus King, Jenn Grant, The Blue Stones, Hot Chip, Lexxicon, HEALTH with Xiu Xiu

Will McGuirk December 13, 2019

In a world in which the centre will not hold, in a world where division is norm, fragments of shattered orders realign along old ideas on a global scale, so too the artists realign themselves. Look for them. Stand with them. Connect with them.

“We can always be in touch. So heartache must be getting harder.”  - Donovan Woods




“The Party is a story about a woman, filled with anticipation in those moments while getting ready for the party, which sometimes feels like the best part,”  says Grant. “It’s about the evening to come, of dancing and love and loneliness and gathering. And something that resonates with this time of year, under all the sparkling lights.”

Iskwe

Slowcity.ca Open Mic - As the Fall brings new beginnings with Leonard Cohen, Jenn Grant, Iskwe, Frankie, Overcoats, Donovan Woods, Julian Lamadrid, Aphrose, Once A Tree,

Will McGuirk September 20, 2019

It seems the Fall is the start of much, rather than the end; modern society seems to work in opposition. Perhaps its the school year or municipal budgets that evoke such an impression. Or perhaps all of this is the culmination of work submitted, quietly, anonymously, slowly, diligently, one seed at a time. I may perhaps never sync with this rhythm but there are those who do.

"Sweet Tuesday" I wrote this song for my dear friend, a kindred spirit who ventured back to the sky world after a long and courageous battle with cancer. This song and its visuals are a commemoration of our last visit together, during which we embraced our mutual fears for the road ahead as much as we celebrated the beauty and mystery life offers.

That bubbly feeling when you + your partner decide to shoot a music video by yourselves and travel to Mexico with all your film gear and a 30lb skeleton named Tony and get stopped by the police thinking your transporting a dead body and have the whole town of San Miguel de Allende whippin out their phones tryna turn you into a meme.

Snotty Nose Rez Kids

Slowcity.ca Open Mic - Here comes the rain again plus Snotty Nose Rez Kids, Esperanza Spalding, Jenn Grant, Tamino, Rhye, Rich Aucoin, Black Mountain and Ada Lea,

Will McGuirk May 13, 2019

By Will McGuirk

So I’m leaving this here because it runs parallel to the way we think here at Slowcity.ca. Its from the Snotty Nose Rez Kids’ press release; “Boujee Natives stems from our belief that everyone is an artist in one way shape or form and that we were all created to create but it’s up to us as individuals to find out what that is for ourselves. We wanted to showcase all the badass First Nations artists that have welcomed us into their worlds as we were coming into ourselves and developing our artistry into what it is today. We are the creators, we are inspired natives, not native inspired, and we like to rock our shit, we dem Boujee Natives.”

So yes its up to us, you, me, to find our creative selves within and build our own future. Music helps so here is today’s open mic which you can air while you woodshed ideas this rainy week. Dig into Esperanza Spalding, Jenn Grant, Tamino, Rhye, Rich Aucoin, Black Mountain and Ada Lea. Dig into the future, unearth yourself.

Esperanza Spalding "Lest We Forget" from the album "12 Little Spells" out now, from Concord Records. "Lest We Forget" (blood) sensation of gentle propulsion through one's own inner/outer space, guided and tethered by infinite love For trusting that the flow of the personal circulation system is constant in providing the body (individual, family, community, partnership, profession, field, culture, nation, species, planet, etc.)
