TBT // Concert Review // Fake Shark @ The Seahorse // 17.06.17
It’s hard to believe that it has been almost 2 weeks since Vancouver indie-pop band Fake Shark graced the Seahorse Tavern stages. It was the last stop on their cross-Canada trek, and what better room could you choose to wrap a tour? On the same bill were local favourites Dub Kartel and Party Boots, but… Read More

Girls Rule and Boys Drool was the mantra of Friday night.

I opted to hang around after the Quiet Parade… Read More
