Pardon my Lips Birdie Whyte - Going to the Races |
https://birdiewhytetunes.bandcamp.com/track/pardon-my-lips
I am so pleased as punch to let you all know that I'm releasing my very first full length album on Sunday January 26th, 4PM at The Record Centre! An early, family friendly, pass the hat affair with my band of Sound Ponies, Dave Bignell, Chloe Laberge, C. A Jackson, Sal Valley and Nik Field. My Rubber Rose pal, Haley Wolk will be our warmer upper!! I can't say enough about how happy I am with this album and all the choices I made through this maiden voyage into making a record. One of my happiest choices was to make a limited run on vinyl only, (with the help of The Record Centre) and turn the rest out on all digital platforms (available now, so have a listen). A record is a maker of time, art is vessel for understanding our experiences, for me this album does just that and I will love it to the end of time. Come celebrate with us! Album release Sunday!

Chetre Vechir Moskitto Bar - Moskitto Bar (12) |
https://moskittobarto.bandcamp.com/ released March 29, 2019
@ 7:40 am: Moskitto Bar phone interview with Tangi Ropars Performing at NAC Fourth stage on Friday, Jan. 24th for the Fridays at the Fourth series https://nac-cna.ca/en/event/23941 their contact number is 647-470-2643 “It is not only about the music. In a deeper way it is about the connection between cultures…” Tangi Ropars, leader of Moskitto Bar. "Moskitto Bar is a fresh and unique sound created in the multi-cultural hub of Toronto, Canada. Their sound combines a beautiful and original mix of Ukrainian, Balkan, Iraqi Middle-Eastern and French Celtic music. The project was initiated by Tangi Ropars when he met newcomers Yura, from Ukraine, and Ahmed, from Iraq. In June 2016, during a gathering in Northern Ontario, they met every day in the woods to share and teach each other their respective melodies and rhythms. As they were playing, the rural Ontario mosquitos, were joyfully feasting on the multicultural group inspiring their eponymous name. Almost two years later, the trio connected with the notable violin player, Fethi Nadjem freshly landed for Algeria, adding his oriental flavour to the sound mix. More than the music, despite their diverse traditions, political and social stories, they share a deeper connection, a mutual love and respect for each other and a common desire to spread messages of unity." |

"JOHN IAN (+BAND) is Raw. Unpolished. Real. And for the first time he's not alone on stage! At times somber but never hopeless, in his intense, poetic and heartfelt songs inspired by folk, rock and alternative music. John Ian tells stories, observes and ponders. Despite the sadness and the madness in this world there always is a way out of the darkness into the light. John is a member of the LGBTQ community and the fact that hes transgender explains the long journey and many detours he had to take to reach a state of finally feeling okay in his own skin and having a voice he feels comfortable singing with." |
Good Luck Goodnight John Ian - live in the studio |
