Hometown hip-hop hero Luke Boyd rolled into town this past weekend to kick off a pair of shows at the Marquee Ballroom which would serve as both a homecoming for Boyd and his crew, and a wrap party for the Grateful Cross-Canada tour.

The Sheepdogs @ The Marquee // March 16th, 2016

March 19, 2016 Trev

There are those bands who break overnight, become the media darlings of the moment, hit the road on a cross-country adventure, only to quickly implode and disband just as quickly as they broke through. The Canadian musical landscape is littered with countless bands who flirted with fame and fortune only to flame out, leaving nary… Read More

TBT Concert Review: Matthew Good @ The Marquee – Dec 9th, 2015

December 17, 2015 Trev

Amongst my friends and peers, Matthew Good is easily one of (if not the) the most polarizing musicians performing today. The opinions are from a direct result of having met Matt prior to a show years ago (before he was diagnosed as being bi-polar), and they are unwilling to re-consider these views. On the other hand, Good is one of those artists that draws a loyal… Read More

Concert Review: Glorious Sons – Nov 21 @ The Marquee Ballroom

November 26, 2015 Trev

The Marquee is one of those venues founded on a sweaty, writhing mass of flesh, intoxicated by the music being performed on stage. I’ve been through those Marque doors on multiple occasions and very few of those visits have elicited the gritty visceral experience I had on Saturday night with the Glorious Sons. When you… Read More

Concert Review: The Rural Alberta Advantage @ The Marquee – March 27th, 2015

March 30, 2015 Trev

There are nights when you find your spot at the front of the room and you're in sync with the crowd around you, or you have the opportunity to share in the excitement of a first time concert goer. However, the flip side is that sometimes you manage to find yourself wedged behind the overzealous… Read More

Concert Review: Big Wreck w/ Alert The Medic @ The Marquee

January 4, 2015 Trev

Friday January 2nd marked my return to the Marquee Ballroom to catch Big Wreck's latest visit to our city. I missed their prior visit as it happened to fall on my anniversary, but I was not about to miss back-to-back visits from the reunited band. The added bonus of the evening was local band Alert… Read More

June 21st – Tupper Ware Remix Party w/ Slowcoaster @The Marquee Club

June 25, 2014 Trev

Even after having a couple of days to process the events of Saturday Night, I'm not entirely confident I can explain what I experienced. For the uninitiated, explaining the show might sound like the tale of a raving lunatic recovering from a fever dream. After all, it's not every day that you get to see a… Read More
