Started out with a great song from Gold Motel that turns out be a song from a few years ago, I'm sad to have missed it when it first came out. The set also featured a song by the Housemartins a band from a while ago that I should probably listen to more. This was followed by a bit of stripped down set that all happened to feature female lead vocals.
Got a bit funky in the last set, started with a great group from Toronto who I was introduced to by seeing them perform outside of the Younge-Bloor subway station. The last song of the set was close to my top song and I only found out about it randomly with someone I know watching a bad movie on Netflix, it was a bad movie, but it featured this great song so I guess that is something.
