Show Thoughts & Shots // The Trews @ The Marquee – 09.11.2018

November 11, 2018 Trev

As someone who has followed the career of the Trews since their early pre-Trews days, it’s something of a cheat to see them play a homecoming show at the Marquee Ballroom. Not all bands who frequent that stage have the built-in fan base, but much like Sloan, Joel Plaskett, and Matt Mays, the Trews easily… Read More

What I Liked (And Didn’t Like) About The ECMAs

May 15, 2018 Jeff

Showcasing the majority of talent that we have to offer, this year's event had a little bit of something for everyone. Much like every festival, this… Read More

March 17, 2018 Trev

At the Marquee on Friday night, the hearty Haligoon crowd was ready for a double dose of retro-soaked rock n' roll from two relatively new Canadian acts in Sam Coffey and the Iron Lungs, and the much beloved Sheepdogs.

Show Shots and Thoughts // Big Wreck w/ Attica Riots @ The Marquee – Jan 25/18

January 31, 2018 Trev

It's not often you show up at a Thursday night show and find a packed room, so kudos need to be offered to the denizens of Halifax, as the Marquee was packed and ready to rock. That being said, there were a fair number of VIP fans who arrived early and staked their claims to… Read More

Show Shots (and Thoughts) // Road to Cavendish – Game On! Tour w/ James Barker Bank, Meghan Patrick and Jojo Mason

January 16, 2018 Trev

On a blustery and balmy Thursday evening, it was clear that the crowd in attendance for this Road to Cavendish was undeterred by a little rain. The line of anxious patrons stretched down Cunard Street, snaking towards Brunswick Street well past the entrance to The Seahorse Tavern. Upon entering the Marquee Ballroom, there was a… Read More
