Event Description


TWM: Buffalo, Gramercy Riffs, Magic Hall of Mirrors + Hands & Teeth

G20 got you feeling down, angry, annoyed? Whatever the case may be Rancho Relaxo has a show in line for Saturday June 26th that should take your mind off being trapped in your own city.

HUGE NEWS:

Gramercy Riffs (http://www.myspace.com/gramercyriffsmusic)

Have been added to the bill. The band is currently in the process of moving to Toronto and creating a ground swell of support and buzz in the process. Fresh off a sold out (turned away at the door) set at NXNE they just got added to this bill.

Gramercy Riffs play an exuberant dancey blend of indie-rock with just the right hints of home (Newfoundland) mixed throughout. I have been wanting to catch them for a while now so this is a bank error in my favour. Come and welcome Toronto’s newest import band in proper TWM fashion. This bill just got jacked!

SET TIME WILL BE ANNOUNCED TONIGHT. Check the facebook event for final info on that.

The night begins with Hands & Teeth (http://www.myspace.com/handsandteethmusic):

An excellent new act who’s first show at Rancho was exploding at the seems with people thrilled to check out their set. The band has so many lead singers you’d think it would be an issue figuring out who sings what. But they’ve really got it nailed. The result is a folkish poppy sound that is packed with more energy than bands of this nature usually ever have. There is a lot to be excited about with Hands & Teeth, I recommend coming early to hear for yourself.

Then we have the aforementioned Magic Hall of Mirrors (http://www.myspace.com/magichallofmirrors):

Magic Hall of Mirrors is the new project from Sean Barry (principle singer/songwriter of the Golden Hands Before God). This is dirty psych folk-rock at its finest. Sean Barry truly is one of the country’s strongest songwriters and performers. And the music scene seriously missed him when he wasn’t around. Now this new band is revved up with a steady lineup and going to make some noise. Rancho Relaxo, I stake my reputation on this band and their set. Come and see your new favourite band.

Closing it our are Buffalo (http://www.myspace.com/itsbuffalo):

Buffalo has played Rancho once before. It is the new project from Adam & Rob formerly of Black Hat Brigade. They’ve recently fleshed out into a four piece. Buffalo drifts far enough away from Black Hat Brigade to be a completely different project, but stays just close enough to remind you of what you loved so much about the band. This is a more somber, ghostly folk sound. Chilling, compelling, and very promising indeed.

There you have it.
