  5. One Day - Pre-Evolve Festival in Toronto July 24

    in Soundboard

    Posted

    High Plains Fiddler is a side project of High Plains Drifter.

    Since I moved to Toronto I've been playing music with my cousin Daniel Breault. He's a fiddle player from Calgary and has played on a pile of albums and on stage around the world. We're just doing a short 30 minute set of gypsy jazz, bluegrass, celtic and folk songs.

    I get a real blast playing with him. He really doesn't fit the profile of most fiddler players, by that I mean, he's a big muscular guy with tatoos and piercing all over himself, he's usually wearing a biker jacket and has a shaved head. But this guy rips it up... he's played on stage with Natalie MacMaster, The Rankin Family, Ashley MacIssac, and Reciepie from another Planet, he's jammed with Paul Simon, Rockin' Ronny Hawkins and more... we're working on a larger project together mixing Celtic Fiddle with Breakbeats; Psychedelic Celtic I call it!

    check us out, we're playing at 9:33 - 10:10 PM then it's Kaejema, New Shady Groove, Intergalactic Farie Funk then it's a funky energetic dancefloor set by the Electrician, Breaks by The Phat Conductor and hard breaks with Kristen S.

    should be a blast... y'all.

    Zero.. that comment is not called for, what's that all about? Please edit yourself or I'll get my punk-ass fiddle playing cousin after ya!

    360 Degrees Presents…..

    Jam/Rock Double Bill with

    Caution Jam and Diesel Dog

    For the first time in Toronto, these two prominent groups on the Southern Ontario Touring Circuit share the Stage for a night of great musicianship and dancing.

    Caution Jam - www.cautionjam.com

    Toronto's Blues and Psychedelic Touring Group, Caution Jam, has been a part of Canada's Club and Festival Circuit for over 10 years. Grounded in classic material of Bob Dylan, Crosby Stills Nash and Young and The Grateful Dead, Caution Jam original material retains the spirit of the 60's and 70's psychedelic rock.

    Diesel Dog - www.dieseldog.ca

    This Simcoe, Ont based band is highly indebted to early ’70s Allman Brothers and The Band. Strong songs, charismatic soulful guitarist/singer and a fantastic rhythm section make this an enjoyable and fun filled night of boogie.

    this is my dream show.. I wish I could go...

    he has been the artist that has inspired me the most in the past two years.

    He's a blues master and one of the only not limited to the 12 bar format.

    If anyone has a chance check out "World Music" it's an awesome mix of his best...
