On June 15, Pipe & Hat have assembled their showcase of bands to heat up NXNE at The Annex Live (296 Brunswick Ave. at Bloor St.). The list of artists include rising Canadian bands like Ingrid Gatin, Mise en Scene, The Noble Thiefs and The Nonsuch. The showcase includes guest performers Benjalu (AUS), Kim Churchill (AUS), The Roseville Band(UK) and, in keeping with festival tradition, a secret act to be announced the day of the show. Each performer brings their own unique style and presence to the stage. Ingrid Gratin, Winnipeg's indie-roots darling takes a mélange of soul, French café and gypsy music for an unforgettable experience with her signature accordion. Hailing from the coastal town of Newcastle in Australia, the lead singer of Aussie band Benjalu is described as a vocal blend of Vedder, Chapman and Morrison, mixed with alternate roots, rock, and folk. Kim Churchill, the one-man-band guitarist from Australia, puts on a show like no other by backing himself with harmonica, kick and snare, guitar, body percussion and his own fantastic soulful voice. The Winnipeg duo Mise en Scene's passionate girl-group pop is far from a rehash, bringing traces of Jenny Lewis or ‘My Guy-era’ Supremes. The Noble Thiefs are a snappily dressed, mod-ish vintage soul band and garage-rock in a Two Tone, Dirtbombs or Dexy-style who grab attention everywhere they go. The Nonsuch bring a cosmic Rush or Styx-rock celebrating everything that's great and weird about life on the third rock from the sun. Expect intricate stage outfits and guitar solos. And finally, hailing from Wales, The Roseville Band bring their jangly and heartfelt guitar-led rock and roll rhapsodies in the style of Wilco or electric Dylan. Tim Jones and Kenny Hunynh will be available for interviews leading up to the showcase at NXNE. About Pipe & Hat Pipe & Hat is a Winnipeg-based independent label, formed in 2008 and specializing in developing new and established local, national and international talent. Current clients include Mise en Scene, Ingrid Gatin, The Nonsuch and The Noble Thiefs. Edited June 12, 2012 by Guest Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
