Induction #6: The Machine Has Awoken

The machine has awoken … it’s a little groggy, a little confused, and perhaps a little shy.  Thankfully Jason is on hand to coax it to life, to an awakened life … perhaps he can make it speak?  Utter a phrase or two?

Join us this Friday, June 23rd, 2017 for the official launch party at Gerrard Art Space (1475 Gerrard Street E., Toronto) … doors at 8pm.  Special guests: The Bop Fi’s!

And hey! It’s here!  Follow the link, and hear the sounds a machine makes when a machine wakes …

Coming soon to iTunes, AppleMusic, Spotify, GooglePlay and Amazon!

Induction #4: Humour-Humility-Humanity

Sitting in a hot tub outside of Quebec City for far too long – I dunked my head in the water and let the sound overwhelm me. I listened as deeply as I could for as long as I could, with my head under the water, trying to hear a message in the chaos of the sound of the water jets.

I wondered, is there a message? And I wondered, what is it saying? And I wondered, what would its brethren say? And I wondered, what would I do with the message? And I wondered, who is the who that speaks? And I wondered, what is the “I” that listens? And I wondered, what is the difference?

Not long after, I ate ice cream with my family.

“Induction” by Jason Kenemy launches digitally, worldwide, Tuesday, June 20th on Eastside Confectionery Records.  The album will be available for download and streaming on iTunes, AppleMusic, Spotify, Amazon, GooglePlay and more!

Please join us on Friday, June 23rd at 8:30pm for the album launch party at Gerrard Art Space (1475 Gerrard St. East, Toronto) where Jason will perform songs from the album and fellow Eastide artists The Bop Fi’s will also deliver their own special brand of improvised jazz and spoken word poetry.

We’ve got a great show for you this month!  This one features a discussion on ‘Dark Horses’ — those songs, artists and albums that were not commercially successful or widely known but that we absolutely love.  Perhaps it’s the ‘hidden’ nature of these songs, or the joy of discovering your own ‘secret stash’ of music.  But now we’ve gone past wanting to keep these to ourselves and today we are sharing these with you.  Some nostalgia creeps in as we discuss how we came to discover these ‘under the radar’ songs, and we take some time to talk of some of our own ‘dark horse’ songs.  We close out the show with an intimate performance of “Night Terrors” by Andrew James Barker!

This podcast also comes with a playlist where you can listen to all of the music we’ve discussed during the show:

Bonus video: The Del Fi’s cover ‘dark horse’ song All I Need Is You by Webb Pierce

Each month Eastside Confectionery Records artists gather to talk about music and songs and the artists create them.
