9pm Saturday September 29th, Park Avenue Crossing (89 Gage Ave S. 2nd floor SE corner of Main and Gage) $10, or $15 includes CD

Using his voice, his quick fingers and his twinkle toes Sam Klass combines an impressive collection of musical technology with his innovative rhythmic sensibilities to bring you the most awe-inspiring and complex solo performance in town. By looping melodies and beat boxing he constructs beautifully layered songs under his soft lyrics. Sam Klass will bring to your ears the crazy funk of outer space with the aqueous flows of the deep sea all coalescing into his Fluid Identity. It has been a lot of work for one man to produce this CD, come celebrate its release and see what his music is really made of. Joining Sam at this party will be After Funk, Toadhouse and the bearded wonder Dan Walsh.

Park Avenue Crossing is not a licensed establishment. BYOB if you are so inclined.

Saturday, Sept 29th. 10pm @ The Brain – $ PWYC

Saturday Night Live at The Brain has another great show for us this week.

Steeltown favourites, and Hamilton Music Award winners, Canadian Winter will perform an acoustic set at The Brain.

Canadian Winter are supported by local DJs: Ka$hkaval, Supa83, and Dex – this is a group of very talented DJs.

A $PWYC show featuring Canadian Winter is great. The addition of three fine DJs is even better. Wait – there’s more – Hamilton’s funky jazz group Haolin Munk is doing a guest set as well.

The Brain is offering a very fine selection of local music for a very low (or free) price this Saturday. If you’re looking for some great live music, ambiance, and a killer beer selection – look no further.

Friday,  Sept 22nd.  9pm @ Homegrown Hamilton

I’m not sure when exactly it happened, but slowly and surely Homegrown Hamilton has become a fantastic place to see live music.

Homegrown has hosted fantastic music and events in their venue almost nightly all summer and they show no signs of slowing down as we head into fall. Tonight is no exception.

Hamilton-born, and much beloved, CA Smith (formerly known as: Mayor McCa)  is in town to play a set along side Cursed Arrows, and Familiar Fiends.  If you missed CA perform during Supercrawl this is your second chance.

Come down to Homegrown for some great music this Friday.
