Show Thoughts & Shots // Weaves w/ Like a Motorcycle @ The Seahorse Tavern – May 17, 2018

May 29, 2018 Trev

Considering the backlash that bubbled up when Truro’s Rock the Hub released their initial lineup for the 2018 iteration, it’s refreshing to see the talented acts who have found themselves booked on Halifax stages as of late.

Concert Thoughts & Shots // Wildest Dreams

March 31, 2018 Trev

June 29, 2017 Trev

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

June 14, 2017 Trev

Hillsburn have been enjoying a steadily increasing career trajectory since the release of their 2016 album In The Battle Years; crowds have been growing, as have the band’s media appearances. The cachet that the band’s name carries makes it more surprising that their show on Friday night at the Seahorse was one of the largest… Read More
