You go through phases in life, it's just a given. Some times an abrupt change signals a transition from one frame of mind to another, other times it's more subtle. I can look back at the archives of this blog and see the phases I've gone through, and in some case, even track changes in artists I've written about. Take Kat Burns, for instance. She first entered my consciousness as the voice behind Toronto's Forest City Lovers, back when I was deep in a torrid love affair with all things acoustic, folk, and pop. Now that I've been [...]
![Photos of 4in1 Acoustic Sessions in a Park #5 [July 22, 2012]](http://cdn.elbo.ws/posts/4405038_lg.jpg)
It was a very hot July 22nd in Ottawa. At least it didn't rain. Here is 4in1 Acoustic Park Sessions #5 that took place at MacDonald Gardens Park . Decided to have it under the nice stoned gazebo. It was more like 6in1 but this was another good installment. Playing at the session were: • Factory Owl • Alex Silas • Kashka [...]
Kashka is the moniker for Forest City Lovers' Kat Burns and her friends and collaborators. She started writing these songs in 2009 with the help of James Bunton ( Ohbijou , Light Fires ), where the two would collaborate over long distances (Bunton on tour with Ohbijou, composing beats in the van and Burns sequestered away on Toronto Island for a composition residency). The winter of 2011/2012 had Kat assembling what was to be her full length debut in Vichada; a recording process that pushed Kat to think outside her normal songwriting process and channel this new voice. Look [...]
Frank Yang Who: Forest City Lovers What: One of Toronto's steadiest bands of the last half decade or so releasing three albums of folk-pop - each better than the last - most recently, 20102s Carriage .

Katie Sadie So yeah, Canadian Musicfest kind of screwed me over this year. For the past however many years, we've had a good arrangement: Canadian Music Week, as it was once know, runs the week before SXSW and allows me to a) get into some semblance of game shape for a club-hopping festival, b) check out some bands that I might otherwise have to find time to see in Austin, and c) allow me to build up a backlog of content to allow me to keep posting while I'm experiencing taco country.

Todd V Wolfson I feel that I should say up front that any reservations I have about Kathleen Edwards and her work are entirely my own issues. Since her 2002 debut Failer , I've enjoyed her honest, roots-rock fare but always felt like I expected more from her creatively even though across her first three albums, she'd never shown any signs that she had ambitions beyond being a good singer-songwriter. That said, the fact that she spent her downtime following 20082s Asking For Flowers [...]

Frank Yang There's many great things about the long-running Toronto institution of Nu Music Nites at the Horseshoe - not least of all the fact that they're free - but the fact that they often feature such random assemblages of acts that each set can feel like its own standalone show and not part of a larger bill is certainly a big part of the fun. Such was the case on Tuesday night when rather than one headline-calibre act, as you'd normally be fortunate to have, they had two - and quite markedly different ones at that. [...]
Idée Fixe When you've spent much of your life doing one thing, and that one thing draws to a close, it's not unreasonable to decide to do something completely the opposite next. So for Bry Webb to make his first post- Constantines record Provider a quiet, mainly acoustic affair only stands to reason - particularly for anyone who heard him operating as Harbourcoats before the Cons went on hiatus. But to suggest that Provider is just the Cons frontman gone unplugged is a grave [...]
Frank Yang If you have a look over the last couple weeks of posts, you may notice that I've been to a number of shows lately; certainly the busiest stretch in some months. So when I say that to get me out of the house for a late Sunday night show on the other side of town would require something pretty dang special, I mean it. Fortunately or unfortunately, I'm not sure which, The Shop at Parts & Labour was hosting just that. I'd have probably gone if it was just Veronica Falls [...]

Awhile back I decided to use a film camera and take some photos from this year's NXNE Festival in Toronto. Bought a roll of B&W Illford 36 exposure film.

Photograph by Sabrina Diemert Toronto's North by Northeast - or NXNE - is the younger cousin and orienteering opposite of the behemoth Austin music extravaganza South by Southwest. Over its 17 years, the festival has swollen to 7 days of concerts (ranging from cozy church acoustic sets to sprawling punk moshing at Yonge and Dundas Square), films (mostly music-centric documentaries, including this year's highly touted Better Than Something: Jay Reatard ) and interactive conferences (if you were a musician and could get advice from Brian Wilson, wouldn't you?). As with any event attempting to [...]

Photo by National Capital Commission It's pre-Canada Day today but here goes. Happy Canada Day 2011! Hope everyone will be enjoying their weekend and celebrate Canada's 144th birthday. I decided to make a mixtape which all the acts are Canadian. I know some of the songs don't have Canada as a theme but just wanted people to have fun to the songs on Canada Day. Enjoy!

The closest of seeing Forest City Lovers at NXNE was at the Analogue Gallery 's BBQ. There was only two of them there. Kat Burns and the violinist who I forgot her name. It was a nice beautiful set as always and played at the back of the gallery. Great way to enjoy Forest City Lovers on a bright sunny day. [...]
Toronto - Playing against the lovely Church backdrop that is the Music Gallery, Toronto based folk band Forest City Lovers provided a lush gentle introduction to my night at North By Northeast . Starting off with a lovely solo piano number by Kat Burns, her lovely voice permeated the entire building with a lovely dose of calm, only slightly interrupted by the idiot photographer who put his camera too close to the mic which caused the clicking of his camera to become an inadvertent drum beat. The rest of the group soon joined the act and [...]
