Canadian Stars: The Marble Index and the Waking Eyes

Canadian Indie sets are dominating the music scene and it just so happened that three of them took over the Rivoli on Queen St. for a nighttime of true entertainment. Boy, The Marble Index and The Waking Eyes all performed for free at an event that was hosted by BenQ called the Video Sound Tour. Unfortunately I was not able to do it for the Occident Seashore indigens Male Child who were the openers for the show but was told that they were great but lacking the entertaining factor.

“I thought their music was good but I personally like watching sets that expression like they are having merriment when they play, but they were hot,” said Melanie, a fan from the crowd.

The Marble Index, personally one of my favourites, rocked the show. The William Rowan Hamilton three graced the phase with their talent, as singer and guitar player Brad Germain even got bosom with the audience by getting in there and also making certain we all applauded them since it was a unrecorded taping. All he wanted was to do them sound like they were a well-known band that everyone loved but the crowd did neglect to accomplish that. The cats from The Marble Index definitely stole the show specifically with the path by them ‘Not Sol Bright’ that is getting great airplay on the Edge. Germain added temper to the show and was merriment to watch as he continuously jumped up on the talker boxes. With Ryan Tweedle on Bass and Adam Knickle on Drums they added exactly what this set have that brands it stand up out from any other. The Casby Awards were when I first discovered these cats and ever since their melodies are constantly playing on a cadmium in my car.

Melanie and Ashley were two misses right up in the presence that seemed to be enjoying themselves the most out of everyone. Here’s what they had to state about The Marble Index. “I’ve seen the Marble Index a clump of times and I love them, they are astonishing live,” said Melanie. “This was my first time seeing them and they were great,” said Ashley.

Next up was The Waking Eyes another Casby performer. This is another set who sounds the same unrecorded as on their CD, possibly better. They have got two singers that probably assists them distinguish themselves from others. These male children from Winnipeg Manitoba have got been appearing on the charts and for certain played a great show.

“The concert was great, they all certain cognize how to execute especially when The Waking Eyes brought out the trumpet,” said Samantha Cox.

Yes that’s right, a trumpet. Rusty who plays guitar and makes vocals brought out another endowment and that was gracing the audience with his cornet playing skills. Something I’ve never seen before but went well with the music they played. He was actually good and the crowd was feeling it for sure.

The Waking Eyes and The Marble Index played first-class sets and looking around at the audience they all seemed pleased with what they saw. Overall a memorable night, the locale was perfect sizing even though at times it was a small crowded but when three Canadian stone sets acquire together for a tour there is guaranteed enjoyment. Next time when they come up to town I’ll be there, supporting them 100%.
