Thank you for showing us amazing hospitality, cooking vegetarian food in the land of caribou and moose burgers, hosting parties under the midnight sun, showering our ears with fantastic drums and throat singing, combining hip hop culture with old tradition, for bringing us new friends and old, for having a fantastic musical and arts community, for the EartH artist collective and lastly, thank you the most for inviting us to experience this all!
Vlog? I don’t think I’ve ever typed that before. Well, it’s Wednesday and that means you get to check out a new video from the band’s European tour… this tasty morsel takes you into the creepiest place we’ve ever stayed in (including questionable sheets) and gives you a few insights into Southern Italian driving (it’s nuts.) Please enjoy responsibly! xox kat
p.s. we’re leaving for Yellowknife tomorrow for Folk on the Rocks festival and we are PSYCHED!! First mission – get Sam Roberts to play tambourine for Country Road….
So here is the third installment of our European tour diary. This one is almost like a musical montage. You know, like the ones that always appeared in episodes of Full House in 1999? This video takes us from Amsterdam to Germany and into Italy. Kyle takes on Coldplay and Christian loses his mustache. And if you understand German you’re in for a comic book adventure…read aloud.
Enjoy!
Also – anyone in Toronto should check out an art show that Kat is partaking in. The White House presents Lunar Landings is running from July 9-18 and the opening is THURSDAY JULY 9 (tonight) at Gallery 1313 (1313 Queen St W) so check it out or go here for more information.
Thought I should mention that it was pretty saddening to hear that Martin Streek, a DJ on local radio station 102.1 here in Toronto, took his own life yesterday. I’ve grown up listening to his voice on the radio and it’s quite sad to hear that he isn’t here anymore. He was a great music ambassador and a familiar voice in an ever changing musical landscape. It’s amazing how used one gets to hearing the same voice for years and then one day you realise it belongs to a living, breathing human that makes mistakes like everyone else. Rest in peace Martin Streek.
HAPPY CANADA DAY HAPPY CANADA DAY HAPPY CANADA DAY! For the rest of the world, Happy Wednesday! As promised, as it is indeed Wednesday, here is the second video installment of our Euro adventures. Chapter Two takes us from Paris through to Belgium, Rotterdam and then to Amsterdam…
Tonight is full of BBQs and a free concert at the waterfront! Wheeee!
