Speaking of which, I saw them in concert at The MOD Club in Toronto on February 4th. This, my dears, was a concert of sheer genius. Playing with He Is We and The Cab, the Summer Set lit up Toronto, made them dance, smile, and sing along, all while maintaining excellent stage composure, and formidable acoustics, sounding almost exactly like they do on the record. The Cab followed suit as well, and He Is We opened an excellent set overall, with truly amazing, underground bands bursting with talent and sheer kindness. Each member of every band took the time after the show to personally meet every fan in the large auditorium style concert, expressing gratitude and fan appreciation that is refreshing in this music industry. Once again with a lost voice, I greeted John Gomez from the summer set between The Summer Set's performance and The Cab's set, and he was gracious enough to take many pictures with my friend and I, and then greet the swarm we caused around him with unwavering kindness. The show was amazing overall, with a good sound, and a good new video to match.
I can't blog about music without talking about one of my favourite bands, The Summer Set, on a regular basis. Today, they released a music video for their latest single, "When We Were Young." And, the video is not at all what I expected from the song. It is kind of related, but kind of unexpected, a creative twist much appreciated from the young band.

Recently, The Pretty Reckless released a video for their single "You." Front woman Taylor Momsen is a mere 18 years old, but her sound and her lyrics are wise beyond her years. No wonder she says she'd eat a boy her own age alive. The video for "You" is also mature for a teenager, but in a very simplistic way. The song takes on a softer, more emotional sound than the rest of the record, and sports a video to match. |
