This Month’s Exclaim! Locals Roundup

Something new I plan on doing each month is flipping through Exclaim! and seeing what locals got mentioned, reviewed, interviewed or otherwise noted in their pages. It’s been a few weeks since I last visited their site as well and it’s been cleaned up nicely - and there’s also an apparent improvement in the paper content being online at the same time as the issue is out [in the past i had gone looking for reviews online and found them yet to appear online even after the issue was no longer available]. There’s also a full listing of the current issue’s contents - nice, me likes.

So who’s in the paper this month: well there’s not one but two reviews of Jenn Grant’s new album [second one is the one in print], a review of Dog Day’s Night Group and last but not least [wher’d that saying come from anyways?] Jonny Stevens and the Racket’s April 6th show at The Capital Bar in Fredericton NB is reviewed.

And as you can see from the image above Joel Plaskett is on the cover and interviewed with Peter Elkas. If you had been in Toronto this afternoon you could have filmed a video with Joel too:

Torontonians with some time to kill this afternoon are invited to appear in a music video shoot - and it’d help if you were a Joel Plaskett fan because it’s his video. It’s happening this evening from 5 to 8PM at St. Joseph’s Catholic School near Queen E and Leslie, full details on his website. Plaskett is playing two shows at the Opera House - coincidentally not far from Queen E and Leslie - on May 25 and 26. Via Chromewaves
