Brad Barr in Wakefield, QC on July 31

I saw a listing for Brad Barr playing at The Black Sheep Inn in Wakefield, Quebec on Saturday July 31. Berithen Berio played there (opening for Plants & Animals) back in September, so I'm wondering if this is a Brad Barr solo gig, or a Barr Brothers gig that got listed under Brad's name. Also on...

[BT] Vandermark 5 - 2009-08/10/11 - Montreal, QC/Toronto, ON

I can't think of any connection to Things Slipular, so my only excuse for putting this here is that I hope some Slip fans here will enjoy the music of Ken Vandermark 's quintet that I recorded on two back-to-back nights last year. This is some monstrously heady and heavy stuff, out into the wonderfu...

Patrick Watson also made an appearance, providing accompanying vocals on one or two tunes, singing in sync with Brad so well it made me think that Patrick must have sat in on a BB rehearsal or two.

Ottawa XPress gave the recording four and a half stars in their review : The Brothers Barr, whom you might recognize as the core of well-respected Boston rock trio The Slip, have been sucked up into Montreal's musical community and have spit out a beautiful, subtle and joyously listenable album. Th...

The Slip on Daytrotter

I got directed to Daytrotter from another band's web page, and decided to see the total set of sessions/artists they had. I found The Slip on Daytrotter from back in August, 2007.

The Barr Brothers' record

I love the record by The Barr Brothers. First up, it exceeded my expectations: if Brad, Andrew, Sarah, and Miles Perkin had just gone into a studio and recorded a set of live-off-the-floor acoustic tunes, I would have been really happy, because that would have been a great record. The record they pr...

I'm listening to Eisenhower right now, and I realized something: forget about The Slip overplaying "Eisenhower" songs vs. other songs, there are even big, good chunks of the Eisenhower record they haven't played much, like "Life In Disguise" and "Mothwing Bite", neither...
