Events @ Harlem Restaurant, Toronto, ON - Fri Mar 1st & Sat Mar 2nd!

FRIDAY MARCH 1st
Julian Fauth

Julian has toured across Canada several times and has played in Europe, Russia, Cuba and the US. Andrew Galloway's Electro-Fi label has released two CDs by Julian, Songs of Vice and Sorrow (2005) and Ramblin' Son (2008). Both were nominated for a Juno award, and Ramblin' Son won the Juno for Best Blues Recording in 2009. A third CD, Everybody Ought To Treat A Stranger Right, will be released on Electro-Fi in the fall of 2012. Julian has alsowon a Maple Blues Award and was nominated for several more.

He has had the opportunity of playing with some of the best Canadian blues musicians and a number of American blues veterans. He has also collaborated with jazz and folk musicians and indie songwriters. Julian's music is based on the early blues and gospel music he loves but draws on a variety of other influences as well. In addition to re-inventing traditional material, Julian writes songs which deal with a variety of modern topics. While the feeling of the music remains rooted in pre-war blues, Julian frequently bends the rules and stretches the boundaries of that musical form.

The Upperclass Men Tour Live @ The Piston, Toronto, ON - Thurs Feb 28th!

THE UPPERCLASS MEN Southern Ontario Tour

With:
Vibonics
12th Letter
DJ James Redi

No matter how eclectic music tastes can get, there's always something to be said for artists who give traditional genre lines a boisterous middle finger. The Upperclass Men are an example of what happens when boundaries set by genre typecasting are shattered in favour of a mind-rattling live show. Hitting the road after the release of their Parachutes EP, Southern Ontario is about to get a taste of rap-rock whiplash in an unforeseen way. Joined by Toronto's own hip hop fusion band Vibonics on the tour, the Toronto show will also feature a performance by 12th Letter and music by DJ James Redi.

Location: The Piston | 937 Bloor St. West @ Ossington, Toronto

Featured Performers of the Night
Moyo Rainos Mutamba is a multi-disciplinary artist, community learning facilitator, speaker, researcher and PhD student at the University of Toronto. He is a musician, dancer and storyteller. His music is centered around Mbira, an instrument that has been played in Zimbabwe for hundreds of years. Mbira's dissonant cacophonic sound is played in cascading rhythmic patterns for uplifting secular occasions, as well as for spiritual ceremony and ritual. Mbira music is trance inducing, lending itself to contemplative and meditative moments. He tells Zimbabwean based historical stories and folk tales. Storytelling and song have been a part of Mutamba’s life since he was a child in a small village in Zimbabwe where he grew up. His love for storytelling was deepened by his large family for whom telling stories was a ritual every night -- gathered around burning fire under the watching eye of the moon. To this day he draws upon stories that his grandmother, sisters, mother and other relatives inherited from his ancestors. He has told stories in schools, community centres, festivals, healing circles and around fires. Moyo performs with the Mbira band Nhapitapi, but can also be seen performing solo, weaving mbira tunes with ancestrally inspired vocal chants and lyrics. He has performed at major festivals in Canada such as Afro-fest in Toronto among others. He has also performed in Canada, the US and Zimbabwe.

Ania Soul delivers on the promise of her name. A compelling and versatile artist, she re-defines soul music with haunting vocals and an unforgettable vibrato that will shake you to your bones. She is a tried and true performer, having started out in the church as a youth singing lead in a gospel choir called Triumphant Sound to fronting her own roots rock reggae band called Laminar Flow as she graduated from a Jazz vocal program in Edmonton. Moving to Toronto to see what the East had in store, her life experiences nurtured and matured her sound into a remarkable mosaic of genres she has been influenced by since she was a little girl. Now getting grown, her Sade Lauryn Hill Bob Marley vibe that haunts her music style is beautiful but still she is set apart and creates her own platform unique to herself. She is continuing her soul journey with unstoppable force as she releases her debut single in spring 2010 and she is planing on release some more material really soon.

Interesting fact: Her newest branding logo was created by OSO's very own Quentin Vercetty. Check it out in her special EPK video
