New single 'Float' from Rory Taillon bridges social distancing

Will McGuirk April 25, 2020

By Will McGuirk

Our very good pal Rory Taillon has released another track and if you ever wanted your very own in-person concert by the personable Taillon well snuggle up with “Float”. Listening to the song is like having the Rory croon in your ear. “Float” is about contemplating giving up, floating away, - a real issue at this time with so many indoors in uncomfortable circumstance, but “Float” speaks too to the exit strategy from such thoughts. Stay at home yes but let Rory in.

Welcome a new song from Rory Taillon

Will McGuirk March 25, 2020

By Will McGuirk

Could be a lover, could be a virus, either/or you are not welcome here sings our pal Rory Taillon. Now based in Ottawa but originally from the Puerto Perry, Taillon has released a new single, “Welcome'“ from his upcoming album due to drop in May. The song was produced by Rory, Dean Watson and Theo Posthumus. There is a campfire jam band base to it, Blind Melon or Phish -ish but as one watches the sparks flicker upwards its Rory’s voice that soars with them and its a voice that could carry us all out of this mess here in this global village of ours. Dig into this prog-folk number and maybe we can all sing it from our balconies and raise our antennae like skinny fists in solidarity. If Rory joins in I’m pretty sure no matter where the subject hides in the world it would hear him loud and clear, “You’re not welcome here!”

Hey Oshawa scensters, Saturday's choices include Greenbank, Garnet or Horseshoe

Will McGuirk March 21, 2019

By Will McGuirk

All or nothing to reference a brewery, feast or famine etc; Oshawa scenesters have a choice to make on Saturday Mar 23. So much goodness, so much high rock-ness but one can only choose one folks, (possibly two). Demographics may determine what show y’all end up at.

U.I.C is at the Legendary Horseshoe Tavern: Those of a certain Star Club vintage will be on board for the OG garage punkers. The kats played the Star Club Memorial for Mike Star and they were just as fierce in 2016 as they were in 1986. They are playing with The Surfrajettes and Teenage X.

Billard Blossom at the Garnet in Peterborough: This supergroup from Velvet Elvis era Oshawa kats have a new album, “Change Your Grip” and they are out and about doing gigs, that is when they are not out and about doing other things including gigs. Some bands these kats have played in include Bradley Boy, Anagram, Tijuana Jesus and well Oliver Ward has too many to just pick one.

Rory Taillon, Stephen Fearing at the Greenbank Folk Club: Dang, this is a gig and a half!! Oshawa kats from the Wasted Space/Moustache Club times will be digging this pretty rad show for Rory Taillon. Now based in Ottawa Taillon is in many ways on a line with Tom Wilson of Blackie & the Rodeo Kings which features Colin Linden Stephen Fearing who is the headliner here. The Greenbank FC is a gem, always a great night, always an attentive audience, and one should go if only to see Fearing’s reaction when he hears the Taillon no mic required voice.
