All right, folks, listen up! We know you love live music and we love bringing it to you!
That’s why we’ve got some hot shows to keep you warm throughout October, as the temperatures start to drop and the nights begin to cool.
Kicking off the month, is Toronto’s own !Attention!, celebrating the 7-inch release of Another Year on October 1st! The show, featuring supporting acts Orphan Choir, Animal Faces, and Peace Be Still, will also serve as a welcome home for the headlining boys as they wrap up their U.S. tour.
October 6th will see the Birthday Boys taking the stage for the first night of their month-long residency at Sneaky Dee’s, marking the release of their latest album. The group will be occupying the stage upstairs every Thursday throughout the remainder of the month, so be sure to come by for one, two or all of the shows - they’re worth it!
Utah’s Get Scared are venturing to our northern stage on October 8th with special guests Dr Acula and Girl On Fire for an early night of hardcore trouble.
Carrying right along, Boston hardcore heroes Bane will own the stage on October 14th for another early show. Throw a little Defeater, Miles Away, and Dead End Path into the mix and we’re not sure if we’ll even have a stage left by the end!
Let’s hope so though, since Songs: A Dance Party will carry the bar to closing time, with a guest DJ set from the ladies of Sheezer, along with a very special live performance from Rouge - showcasing their brand new 7-inch. May we mention that the night will go down in history, as it symbolizes Songs first ever live act?! It’s sure to be one sexy night.
On October 21st, This Is A Standoff will perform in support of their new EP Be Delighted. The Little Millionaires, Sparrows, and Thunderhawks will join them in the ranks and keep the fun rolling all night long.
Austin Gibbs will be entertaining fans on October 22nd, bringing his blend of emo and alternative rock, along with We Are The Wild Things, Take My Place, and guests. This show’s an early one so be sure to check out our concert listings for times to this all-ages event.
Finally, pop punk four-piece Chixdiggit will be stopping by October 27th to celebrate their illustrious 20th anniversary tour. This is undoubtedly going to be a hell of a show and way to wrap up the month.
And with that we say, that’s it and that’s all… For this month! Stay tuned to our blog for in-house show reviews with photography and special features on upcoming acts, along with future concert listings!
