Concert Listings Roundup #225

You can read more about why I'm doing listings here. Long story short: This curated and decidedly non-comprehensive list contains nothin' but shows that I am going to/would go to if I had more time.

Gig of the week:

Eric Landry / Burdock Music Hall 2017-11-15 (Wednesday – early show @ 6:30 p.m.! dry show! two sets!) [FB event]

A standout at August's Native North America Gathering, it's a true treat to have singer-songwriter Eric Landry return for a full show presenting more of his quietly-astounding material. As I noted after watching awestruck as he joined in the informal aftershow jam on the corner of Bloor and Spadina, he's a true peer to songwriters like Jimmie Dale Gilmore and Neil Young and I can't wait to here his songs in a great-sounding room. Not to be missed.
