Their debut release takes on the dark romance of falling in love: the awakening; the shaking of the past; facing the inevitable end. Marshall's haunting lyrics in combination with the guitar styling of Sturton are delivered like electric lullabies, an eerie waltz of elation and heartbreak. Matt Miwa joins GINNY bringing his own sultry lounge singer style. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=cR3lrcRgARg&list=PL8U8hg_S3k_i17Ol1tRCg4OtHdJm0Tn6-&index=8&t=0s --------- The Railway Hotel The Railway Hotel was formed in the spring of 2016 for the release of Seany Sharko’s debut solo album, September Comes Too Soon.

released March 8th, International Women's Day https://www.facebook.com/events/985572698259367/ The Record Centre, 2 pm Mar. 16th at 5:35 pm Skye Wallace calls in https://www.skyewallace.com/ Folk Rock with shades of Punk Skye’s impassioned new single, Swing Batter – aptly set for release on International Women’s Day (March 8) – brings to life the emotional story of domestic abuse and women’s rights in Canada surrounding the 1911 trial of Angelina Napolitano in Sault Ste Marie. After enduring years of severe physical and emotional abuse from her husband, Angelina was eventually pushed to murdering him with an axe. She was pregnant at the time of her initial trial and was sentenced to be executed following the birth. In the months following this verdict, Angelina’s case attracted international uproar, especially amongst fledgling feminist groups. Many argued the years of abuse constituted self-defense; her case was reopened and her sentence was commuted to life imprisonment. Angelina was released 11 years later, and her story continues to impact the Canadian public’s view of domestic abuse and women’s rights. "The story behind Swing Batter is based in a historical context, one that permeates with a fledgling strength that is now very powerful amid our current social climate,” says Skye. “Angelina's story is an insight into how the shift has happened in the past, and how we need to perpetuate that shift by working hard, being inclusive, vocal, and active, and educating ourselves and others." Skye Wallace is what happens when a classically trained singer with east coast roots discovers punk rock in their youth. Hailed coast to coast as a “national treasure” (Sad Mag), Skye Wallace is based out of Toronto, ON. Audiences can catch her live show through Ontario and Quebec next month, with dates kicking off on March 7th in Orillia (details below).
