City and Colour to play 4 sold out shows in Toronto!
I have always liked City and Colour (note the extra “u” for you Americans) but for whatever reason, I have yet to blog about him. His popularity in Toronto is enormous.
He is part of the screaming Canadian indie band Alexisonfire where he plays guitar, piano and adds in melodic vocals mixed with the normal screaming. I have always liked his part of the song where he sings and seems to have a natural talent and people are really liking his work.
His release “Sometimes” was awesome and I really enjoyed the mature sounds especially “Hello, I’m in Delaware” (listen below).
Anyway City and Colour or Dallas (city) Green (colour) is on slate to play 4 sold out shows in Toronto in the Danforth Music Hall. I unfortunately made the mistake on waiting to see if anyone friends wanted to see any of these shows and only the crappy tickets were left. Now all there is left is to try to buy them from a scalper which I would rather just wait to check him out another time.
I bought the City and Colour live album and his live stuff is hypnotizing. Here is some stuff by City and Colour if you’ve never heard of him before:
