Ben Everyman, Blackout Lights, The May Cause & Black Phoenix Orchestra
Aug. 6th at Pats Pub
Ben Everyman-
Playing his first show as a solo artist, a great opener to get the crowd psyched for more music! On stage with a guitar and whitty lyrics, that are sure to make anyone smile.
Song to listen to: Rock N Roll Star
Blackout Lights-
They have sculpted their own sound, something I really like to hear. You can definitely tell these dudes are influenced by alot of different genres. The band played the show missing 2 band members and having borrowed a bass player from another band. Look for their EP out in September 2010
Song to listen to: Finally, You Found A Way Out
The May Cause-
Wow what a voice! Lead singer Curt has one of those voices that just makes you get lost. Not to mention the whole band has a very neat stage presence, the cool lights and fog adding perfectly to this mysterious vibe they have going. I recommend seeing them, they have quite the following, and live show!
Song to listen to: Politics
Black Phoenix Orchestra-
Calgary band playing their very first Vancouver show. People were sitting down really not knowing what to expect and as soon as they started playing everyone in the crowd had this look of "I didn't expect this" across their face, the crowd got up and grooved. It was great to see this reaction! I loved every moment of their set, with songs that they just let move naturally. Having seen them live 3 times you are definitely in for a different and awesome experience every time!

1. When did your band form?
We formed March 2010 after most of us were kicked outta our old bands.
2. What inspired you to make music?
Darren- Richard Ashcroft from The Verve inspired me to make music, listening to him sing just blew my mind, I wanted to be that good, and Micheal Jackson but lets not talk about that haha.
3. What genre of music do you consider your music to be? Who are some influences?
Lick your ticket haha, our music isn't always stuck within structured lines, we give it room to move and let it take shape. Our influences are Black Rebel Motorcycle club, The Verve, Kasabian, Dead Meadow, Oasis and 100's more.
4. Who writes your songs? Is there a main theme or topic for your songs?
Darren- I write majority of the songs but Chris also helps with writing, We are very open minded everyone, adds there own parts. I don't want to tell people what to play, they can play whatever they want. The main topics for my writing are the struggle with Religion and love I guess. I don't believe in writing about shit I don't know.
5. What has been the best moment as a band so far?
Devan- The coolest thing to see is how the music so quickly takes a life of its own on stage. We have a handful of songs that always just kind of go where they wanna go, and we’re getting better at giving the music space to move and take shape.
6. How has your music evolved since you first started playing music together?
The band is very young, and while most of us have all played in bands before we’re definitely still easing into how we all work, on stage and off. We've been working on some higher energy songs lately but who knows where things will go. I would like to get into the psychedelic sounds more. I think that's what we will start focusing on. As long as we continue enjoying what we play, we're happy.
7.How can fans access your music? Do you have any albums out?
We just released an demo EP, which will be available at our upcoming vancouver shows. We start work on the new album in late Aug. you can check us out on myspace and facebook. If you like what you hear you can send us your email address and we will send you some free tunes every month.
8. What song are you currently listening too?
Greg Yukon Blonde- Trivial Fires
Darren Black Rebel Motorcycle Club-Sweet Feeling
Tyler Woven Hand- Kicking Bird
Devan Earthless- Sonic Prayer
Chris Interpol- Lights
9. Is there anyone you'd like to acknowledge?
We have had a bunch of help from so many people; X92.9fm, Paige Woodbury, Paul Gervais , Aaron Crook, The Nix Dicksons, Beth Bannerman, Chelsea Kindrachuk, Mark Mills, Telly, Lionheart Radio, Kirstin Jar, Calgary bands, The Dog and Duck Pub, Darren Ollinger (the new black center), and the most AMAZING friends.
