New words!

I have a review of the Open Ears Festival in the current issue of summer '11 issue of Signal To Noise (sadly, their last quarterly publication; they moving to be an annual).

Look for my interview with Ajay Heble, Artistic Director of the Guelph Jazz Festival in the Sept/Oct issue of Music Times. I could only publish a fragment of our entire chat - the rest may wind up here...

Also, look for the VOC season to be announced here soon!

The VOC returns to the Registry Theatre to accompany Alfred Hitchcock's "The Lodger" (imdb, wikipedia) on Friday, April 15th at 8pm


Tickets are: at the door: $15 at the Registry or The Centre in the Square, $10 with a Food Bank donation. $5 eyeGO tickets are also available. Advance tix are $15 via Centre in the Square website.

In a review from our Jekyll & Hyde show, Stephen Preece of the KW Record wrote: ""One interesting element of this music was the degree to which the discord was so well articulated...This is actually very difficult to do in an improvised environment and it was a good indication of the combined musicality of these players."

New words

Several cd reviews (all drip audio releases) are here in the issue #6 of Eartrip and I have a short piece - a profile on Émilie Payeur - in the new musicworks magazine (the current issue isn't updated on their website as of this entry).

Enjoy!

My preview of the Guelph Jazz Festival 2010 is in the Sept/Oct issue of the Music Times - available at better shops, joints, and dives in the area.

Also, my Eve Egoyan article will be in the upcoming Signal To Noise - issue #59/Fall 2010. Look for Joe Morris holding an apple on the cover.
