Heavy Meadows

The dictionary says that a groove is an enjoyable time or experience. Heavy Meadows is a "five piece folk/jazz/rock/blues/retro/worldly project" with a Phd in grooving. They've been studying for nine years at the Halifax institute for entertaining fine folk. Come see them defend the thesis they wrote on enjoying oneself.

Check out a video from Heavy Meadows, a testament to "enjoying oneself." This beloved Halifax band plays the Long Live The Queen Festival on May 22nd at Gus' Pub. If this doesn't make you want to see them live, you're just crazy. Enjoy yourself.

Jenocide

Peering out from a pair of heart shaped shades Jenocide views all our smiling faces framed with hearts and therefore – if our logic is correct – she must love everyone. Whether this is true or not her electro-thrash-grrrl power-pop offerings will make you feel loved and you will dance accordingly.

Jenocide performs at LLTQ's Opening Party! North Street Church May 21st at 6pm along side, Diamond Rings, Ruby Jean, Windom Earle, Tupperware Remix Party and It Felt Like A Kiss. Oh what a night!

Volunteers! Volunteers!

The Queen commands your hands and minds!

We are in need of some volunteer help if you're up for it. If you can drive, we need you. If you can stage manage, we need you. If you like selling things for bands, we need you. If you want to be a part of this, we probably need you! Your hours will be traded for passes to our shows. Sound alright? Good.

Please contact Andrew Neville at andrewgneville@gmail.com or thequeenhalifax@gmail.com.

Be knighted!

Best regards and the warmest of wishes,

- The Queen

the Luyas

Views of Montreal : THE LUYAS from vincent moon / temporary areas on Vimeo.

It's kind of hard to write three lines to define magic.
But we will say this: The Luyas are every great memory you've got. They do things that are overwhelming with beauty. Their music feels profound and full of glory and one time we sent a Luyas video to someone who was sad, just to remind them there are still things that matter. These former members of SS Cardiacs, Miracle Fortress, and Arcade Fire make torrid arrangements of french horn, organ, violin, xylophone. I know you are far too young to worry so much, but you WILL regret it if you miss these musicians from Montreal. So don't, ok?
