Odd, Out-of-this-World Bill

The latest edition of The Bookshelf newspaper comes with a whole load of great news on the concert front. First there's the 1/2 page spread of Hillside performers as previously reported, and on the front is this tasty tidbit.

In June (the 18th to be exact) the eBar will be hosting a show with three great bands on their own, each with a sound much different from the next, which will make for a diverse though guaranteed excellent concert.

Starting off the night will be the spacey pop of ex-Arts & Crafts band, Young Galaxy. Last time I caught them it was a sunny Toronto Island afternoon - and they brought out a bit more of a rocky side than displayed on their dreamy albums.

From there things are going to jump into high-gear as the Library Voices will fill the place with their large ensemble of fun, pop music. Last time I caught them at the eBar I was floored, and since then they've only gotten better. Not only that but their full length Denim On Denim (Canadian tuxedo?) is out, catchy, and ready to be heard live.

Finally are the much-loved in the indie community Besnard Lakes. This band uses a variety of instruments, in interesting ways, such as bowing a guitar, to create a progressive pop sound that a lot of people (myself not included) lose their poop over. Maybe you'll find yourself in that group?

Regardless of your style of pop there's going to be something here for everyone. An eagerly anticipated concert not to be missed!
