Had a blast playing here last night. The sound was good, making it a pleasure to play. There was a wonderful group of people getting ready to celebrate St. Patrick’s Day, and a couple of birthdays. We like to support funky venues in old cities, like New Westminster, especially when they try to support live music.
Thank you to Andrea Fiscall-Woodhouse of Vancouver Community Arts Council for this amazing review!
“Each song was unique, telling a story. Each was born in a specific place and grounded on a moment that took life of its own. It might have been the selection of songs but it seemed that each verse was acutely aware of its surroundings. Listening to Willy Blizzard felt like a gentle nudge to be more present! I loved their warmth and their openness. The everyday memories that shine in their songs had me aching for places that I hadn’t even heard of before. And apparently all this was just their opening songs… today was seriously amazing.
“What we seek in our music is integrity, we don’t know anything about marketing but we do bring a lot of integrity” How often do you hear that in the music business?
It was very refreshing to listen to a band that managed to succeed in their own terms, joy first, values first, love for nature first and while they were busy creating beauty, doors kept opening. All in all an amazing, inspiring and musical night.”
Here is Willy, yes that’s his real name, winning a Willy Blizzard CD.
Stay tuned for our new song. An environmental anthem for our time The Time Is Wasting. We’ll be uploading test tracks to SoundCloud. This song is about values close to our heart.
