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

Concert Review // The Trews w/ The Adam Baldwin Duo @ The Marquee // 12.17.16

December 20, 2016 Trev

I’ve been out of the Trews game for a long time, and I was more surprised by the fact that the last time I actually caught the band live was when they hit the Magnetic Hill stage in support of Bruce Springsteen. I was fortunate to have caught the band opening for Big Sugar in… Read More

East Coast Music Week 2015 – St. John’s, Newfoundland Recap & Favorites

April 14, 2015 Justin

A few months before the announcement of the line-up for the festival, I was a little worried about what such a small, out of the way city like St. John's could attract to it, in terms of our East Coast talent and festival goers. But as the list of performers began to surface, it became… Read More

Plug: Jeff’s Musical Car / East Coast Music Week in NFLD

April 8, 2015 Justin

I discovered this East Coast gem just recently. Let's just say it caught my curiosity from a previous HAFILAX post. It's called "Jeff's Musical Car", and if you haven't heard of it, it's about this man named Jeff Boudreau who hosts a segment, which features live performances and interviews of local artists, in the seats… Read More

Friday Night Soundtrack – September 20th, 2013

September 20, 2013 Jeff

WOW....so the summer is over and were rolling head first into the fall season. When you take a minute to really think about it, it's pretty wild how quickly we go through the seasons here in the Maritimes. Anyway, enough of that. This weeks post has nothing to do with the Maritimes or the weather.… Read More

Smirnoff Red Door Island Party w/ The Trews, The Stanfields, Gloryhound, The Town Heroes

July 29, 2013 Justin

The Smirnoff Red Door Island Party w/ The Trews, The Stanfields, Gloryhound, The Town Heroes is what I call an East Coast rock n roll party. The event starts as you pay to board the George's Island ferry (the day of the show) and once you arrive, access is provided to an ample supply of Smirnoff's… Read More

The Trews @ The Marquee Ballroom :: April 27th, 2013

April 17, 2013 Trev

Say what you will about this band of lads from Antigonish who initially started out as One Eyed Trouser, which would eventually become Trouser and would finally settle on The Trews. They are always a fun live show and if you live in and around the Halifax area, you should pick up some tickets for… Read More
