Tokyo Police Club Announce Farewell Tour Dates and Share Last Songs

In January, Tokyo Police Club announced their decision to disband following a final farewell tour. The Canadian group has now unveiled the details of this tour, which will conclude with four performances at Toronto's History. Find the tour dates listed below. Additionally, Tokyo Police Club has released their last two tracks, produced by Jesse Turnbull at Toronto's Taurus Recording. The songs, titled “Just a Scratch” and “Catch Me If You Can,” are available for listening below. Tokyo Police Club, comprising vocalist and bassist Dave Monks, guitarist and keyboardist Graham Wright, drummer Greg Alsop, and guitarist Josh Hook, was formed in Ontario in the mid-2000s. The band first caught attention with EPs like A Lesson in Crime and Smith, leading to their debut album, Elephant Shell, in 2008. They subsequently released three more albums: Champ in 2010, Forcefield in 2014, and TPC in 2018. Josh Hook reflected on the journey, saying, "We've been incredibly lucky and honored to share our music and to experience so many personal moments with our fans, from graduations and birthdays to onstage proposals. Seeing familiar faces from our early tours and connecting with so many over nearly two decades is a true privilege. This final tour is the ultimate retirement celebration we could have hoped for. We're profoundly grateful for everyone who has joined us on this incredible journey." 07-04 Ottawa, Ontario - Ottawa Bluesfest 08-01 Halifax, Nova Scotia - Marquee Ballroom 08-03 Saint John, New Brunswick - Area 506 Festival 09-14 Vancouver, British Columbia - Commodore Ballroom 09-17 Calgary, Alberta - The Palace Theatre 09-18 Edmonton, Alberta - Midway Music Hall 09-20 Seattle, WA - The Crocodile 09-21 Portland, OR - Revolution Hall 09-23 San Francisco, CA - August Hall 09-24 Santa Ana, CA - The Observatory 09-25 Los Angeles, CA - The Regent Theater 09-28 San Diego, CA - House of Blues San Diego 09-29 Mesa, AZ - The Nile Theater 10-30 Denver, CO - Summit 11-01 Minneapolis, MN - Varsity Theater 11-02 Madison, WI - Majestic Theatre 11-03 Chicago, IL - House of Blues Chicago 11-05 St. Louis, MO - The Pageant 11-07 Dallas, TX - The Echo Lounge & Music Hall 11-08 San Antonio, TX - Aztec Theatre 11-09 Austin, TX - Emo’s 11-11 Atlanta, GA - Buckhead Theatre 11-12 Charleston, SC - Music Farm 11-14 Washington, D.C. - The Howard Theatre 11-15 Philadelphia, PA - Brooklyn Bowl 11-16 Boston, MA - Paradise Rock Club 11-19 New York, NY - Irving Plaza 11-26 Toronto, Ontario - History * 11-27 Toronto, Ontario - History * 11-28 Toronto, Ontario - History ^ 11-29 Toronto, Ontario - History # Read the full article

Jose Gonzalez @ Bluesfest 2018, Byron Bay, AU

-Gig Review-

Sounds Like: Beautiful indie beauty wafting over a few thousand-strong crowd of middle-aged people holding a generic can of mass-produced lager and a deck chair draped over their shoulder. Feels Like: A solid performance hindered by the musician’s choice to play the festival without his usual band AND sit down for his entire set. Looks Like:

Smells Like: Weed, obviously. Tastes Like: A hearty minestrone soup loaded with your favourite vegetables–it’s tasty, but it’s not your number one dish (if minestrone is actually your favourite meal, I feel so so sorry for you).

SHITorHIT? I have a soft spot for Jose and Junip - HIT.

SIBERIAN BREAKS

Siberian Breaks are set to release their new EP this September. We caught up with band members Jordan, Spencer and Stefan to chat about their dream records, favourite shows, and major influences. Read on and check them out at Live on Elgin on September 20th!

Latest Release: Unlikely Brother (Single, December 2018)

Upcoming shows:  EP Release Show - Friday, September 20th at LIVE on Elgin with Stoby and Amalgamation

SA: How did Siberian Breaks first start as a band? Jordan: I had been playing bass for a couple years in both Trunk (with Stefan) and Price of Gas (with Spencer) and at some point I realized that my fingerstyle bass technique translated really well to an acoustic guitar. I practiced for a while and eventually got decent enough to put together a few original songs which I showed to Stefan and our friend Rob (Chapman, of Trunk). We eventually landed on the current lineup (Jordan - vocals/guitar, Spencer - bass, Stefan - drums) and jammed for a few months before our first show at Pressed last January.

SA: Who would you cite as primary influences on your sound? Jordan: From a songwriting perspective, I’d say probably Jeff Tweedy of Wilco and Justin Vernon of Bon Iver. I appreciate how candid, honest and witty Jeff Tweedy can be with his lyrics but also how absolutely cryptic Justin Vernon’s lyrics are most of the time. I try to walk the line where the lyrics I write are transparent and honest at times but purposefully opaque when I feel like hiding the meaning a little bit. Spencer: I’ve typically played guitar in my previous bands so playing bass in SB lets me focus on the rhythm of my parts more and incorporate some dance influences. In particular, Justice is a big inspiration for the fuzz bass tone I use on a few songs. Stefan: I’m a big fan of Matt Helder of Arctic Monkeys and how he tends to write drum “parts” instead of just a straight ahead beat. I find his parts to be super creative and catered to the specific song and I try to take a similar approach.

SA: Thus far in your career, what has been your biggest success? Stefan: At this point we’ve only been around for a bit over a year so I’d say our biggest success has been getting the EP fully recorded and eventually released. We were lucky in that we had ~8-10 originals finished pretty quickly but it’s been really rewarding to hear them in a more fleshed-out recorded state.

SA: What has been the biggest challenge you have faced, and how have you dealt with it? Jordan: Going from playing bass in bands and being able to chill at the back of the stage with the drummer, to having to stand at the front of the stage, play a new instrument, sing in public for the first time, and figure out when to hit each effects pedal was quite the challenge for me at first. I like to think I’m getting the hang of it now but the sheer amount of energy that goes into some shows is so much more than the supporting role I had as a bassist.

SA: How do you guys approach the song-writing process? Jordan: Usually I’ll come up with a few basic lyrics and guitar parts on my own and then play them at practice and have the guys figure out their parts around that. Having a producer in the band (Stefan) helps tremendously with this. He or Spencer will suggest different directions to take the core ideas I present and the songs almost always end up in a much different, unexpected place than what I originally imagined. I like to think this keeps us on our toes a bit and so far has helped us avoid just writing the same sounding song over and over again.

SA: What are your thoughts on the Ottawa music scene? Stefan: Like the city itself, Ottawa’s music scene is much smaller than Toronto’s or Montreal’s but, also like the city, you end up with these tightly-knit networks of people and when you meet new musicians here, you almost always have a few shared connections with them. Jordan: Living between 2 bigger cities is also nice for touring (we haven’t toured yet but are looking into it) in that you can reach millions of people in just a 2-5 hour drive without having to cross any major borders.

SA: If you could have a meal with any three musicians, dead or alive, who would they be, and why? Spencer: Probably Aaliyah. She had such an interesting but short life and I’d love to hear her take on everything. Jordan: I’m a big believer in not meeting your heroes so I’ll go with Action Bronson since he’s got his own cooking show and everything. I’m not huge into his music but that meal would be delicious. Stefan: I’d say Iggy Pop; you know he’d have just the craziest stories to tell.

SA: What is your favourite show you’ve ever seen in Ottawa, and what was so great about it? Stefan: The first one that comes to mind was the time the Black Keys played at Bluesfest in 2011. There was a huge thunderstorm that rolled in right before their set, but the crowd patiently waited it out. After over an hour of waiting, Black Keys came on stage and put on one of the best 30 minute sets I’ve ever seen in my life. Jordan: Bon Iver at Folkfest 2012 back when it was still at Hog’s Back Park. It was one of the first crisp fall nights of the year and in the middle of a forest; absolutely perfect venue to see them. Spencer: One of the best Canadian Tire Centre/Scotiabank Place shows I’ve seen was probably Coldplay back in 2008. Viva La Vida was such a huge album for them, and they really did it justice live.

SA: If you could have played on any album in the history of time, which album would it be, and why? Spencer: I’d say Stone Roses self-titled album. It really rejuvenated guitar music at the time and made it sound fresh and interesting again. Stefan: Consolers of the Lonely by The Raconteurs just seems like such a fun album to play on. It’s got an amazing feel front-to-back and has a ton of great drum, bass and guitar parts throughout. Jordan: I wouldn’t want to ruin any of my favorite albums with my playing but I suppose if I played a few notes on Thriller I’d be making some pretty crazy royalties right now…

SA: Lastly, what are the future plans for Siberian Breaks post EP-release in 2019? All the best, guys! Jordan: After a year of preparing this EP, it’s back to the studio for us! We recorded the current EP last December at Poole House Studios (Stefan’s studio in Ottawa West) and so we’re going to try to make it an annual thing to record at least a few songs over the holidays each year and release them at some point in the following year. Other than that, we’ll be playing some more shows promoting the EP and hopefully book a couple out of town shows too. Thanks for having us!

😅Busy Few Days😅 - a journal entry

😅Monday, July 9th, 2018 - 7:37 pm😅

The past few days have been pretty eventful. The past week has flown by, to be honest. Even the days where I didn’t do much. 😆

Canada Day was super fun; I really enjoyed it 😊 I started getting to know someone from the Canada Day party and we went out on Thursday, which was also fun 👍

I’ve been keeping up with the gym and also worked Friday, Saturday, and Sunday (among other days lol) 🏃

After work on Friday night, I went over to a friend’s house to have a wine night and sleepover with my three best friends (and the boyfriend of a friend haha).🍷We drank wine, hung out, watched a movie, and stayed up pretty late. It was really fun to catch up with my friends because I hadn’t seem them in a while 💕

I went home on Saturday morning to shower and get ready for work. When I was home, my friends texted me saying they had a surprise for me for my birthday (because I had been in PEI around my birthday)! 😀

So I packed a bag, went to work (a bit tired), and then went to bluesfest with my three best friends (a music festival held ever summer in Ottawa, Canada)!!! It was hot, exhausting, and crowded - but so much fun!!! 🎶 It was my first time at bluesfest and it was a really awesome experience. We saw Lauv, Chromeo, and Shawn Mendes! 😁 I’m so thankful that my friends gave me the gift of this wonderful experience 💖

We ended up walking from the bus back to my friend’s house. We stayed up late (again). Sunday morning, I went home to shower so I could go to work (again). At this point, I was exhausted but I pushed through. 🤗 Work went pretty well all weekend. Then I went home, hung out with my family, took a two hour nap, and watched a movie with my family (we watched The Labyrinth) 👌

So yeah. Crazy busy and very exciting weekend. Sorry for the long post lol. I use tumblr as a journal sometimes. I’d like to be able to look back on this someday. I want to remember things like this. 🌹

Hope y’all are doing well! Have a wonderful week! 💜

SHAWN MENDES FESTIVAL TOUR 2018 ↳ July 7 // RBC Bluesfest (Ottawa, Canada)

Ms. Lauryn Hill @ Bluesfest 2018, Byron Bay, AU

-Gig Review-

Sounds Like: Pitchy ex-star from the 90′s averagely singing her #hittrax while the band outshines her. Feels Like: Waiting 30 minutes while a shitty DJ chittered “AAAAYO!” over the top of timeless (read: unbearable) classics like Sean Paul’s “Temperature”. Looks Like: 

Smells Like: A horrifying Mum gurning out of her mind on the front barrier while her pre-teen kids patiently stand next to her waiting for this whole experience to end. Yep. That happened. Tastes Like: Dirt. Mounds and mounds of decomposed, acidic dirt.

SHITorHIT? Flaming hot piles of shit.
