How fancy will Jantzi get for album release at Winterfolk? | TorontoMoon.ca 180217Sa | Shows for Saturday, February 17, 2022
\ TO EAST \ It will be interesting to see what musical configurations rollicking Roots songwriter Brian Jantzi ends up bringing to the party for his formal release of last year’s interesting and inventive Junkie For Emotion album as part of today’s Winterfolk XVI festival this afternoon.

Accept no substitutes —a Groopie grab is not a Winterfolk | TorontoMoon.ca 180216Fr | Shows for Friday, February 16, 2022
\ TO EAST \ One of the main reasons I love the Winterfolk Blues & Roots Music Festival —and have on several occasions during its now 16 years of weekends been a volunteer emcee or presenter, as well as a paid participant— is that it’s all about supporting and promoting songwriters. The weekend event, staged…

\ STREETSVILLE-MISSISSAUGA \ By Mike Beggs Special to TorontoMoon.ca The Folk-Rock duo may be the best configuration for showcasing the great songs from the late 50s through today.

\ TO CENTRAL \ Love as portrayed in the arts —from poetry, through erotic art, in the theatre, movies and, of course, in popular song— is usually presented as something belonging to the young with fetchingly good looks and intense, often irrational passion. But those of us who’ve reached a certain age know that real,…

Lack of interest scuttles Music Industry Advisory Council meeting
\ TO CENTRAL \ How much of a priority is Toronto City Council’s Music Industry Advisory Council to its 36 members? Not much of one based on what happened —or rather what didn’t happen— at the Wednesday, February 7 meeting of the body, comprised of six city councillors and 31 “representatives” of the local music…
