Indie Music Monday – The Jingles

09 Dec 2013 | Categories: Indie Music Monday | Posted by: Jenavive

Christmas is coming!

This Monday we decided to get festive and let Calgary band The Jingles tickle your Christmas Spirit. I really love how much fun they have! Really makes it hard to bah humbug.

This Saturday they have a FREE ALL AGES SHOW at The House Coffee Sanctuary in Kensington. They are definitely worth checking out. Maybe you’ll even catch the Christmas bug. For a preview of what to expect check out this video. They also have tons of live video on their YouTube page.

Indie Music Monday - King Dylan

Categories: Indie Music Monday | Posted by: Jenavive

On Friday, Vicki Volt and I made our way to Mount Royal University’s bar The Hub to catch King Dylan’s CD release show in support of “Looking For the Sun”. This is King Dylan’s fourth solo album and takes us to subjects a little deeper than his previous releases. His first single and video off the album is “Blind Man”.

On stage his delivery of Alternative Hip Hop/Pop is full of boundless energy. Lead singer of Broken Ride, Graham Furber, joined him onstage to keep the entire room bouncing along to the fun filled set. We wish him well as he sets off for Canada Music Week and hope his album is a huge success!

Openers Septembryo played a new song they dubbed “great for working out to” which I super loved. I can’t wait to harass the guys for a copy of the track.

And a new discovery for me was the band Penny Fortune. The Hip Hop Rock duo blew me away.

Check out the video for “Blind Man!”  (and yes that’s him painting)

Get in touch with King Dylan!

Indie Music Monday - The Implicate Order

Categories: Indie Music Monday | Posted by: Jenavive
Calgary Rockers – The Implicate Order

We recently discovered a new female fronted indie rock band from Calgary named The Implicate Order.  After a quick listen to their 7 track album ‘Hollow Process’ on bandcamp, we were all hooked.  Their music is reminiscent of early No Doubt alt rock feel, mixed with Paramore style vocals.

They sound great on the record, and even better live. The guys and I were able to make it out to their recent gig at Lord Nelson’s Pub on 8th ave. The show was high energy, and filled with intricate playing and headbanging breakdowns. It’s impossible not to groove on the dance floor while they rock out.

The band consists of mega hot vocalist and rhythm guitarist Christina Lacowicz, guitarist Gene Lachica, bass player Tyler Allard and drummer Josh Nadeau.

I cannot wait to share the stage with them at our EP release party, at Dickens Pub on February 28th. Dancing pants required.

Music

My personal favorites are Boardwalk and Wrong Hole.

 


If you like what you hear, you can buy the album ‘Hollow Process’ for $5 on Bandcamp, or stream it for free!
