From Ottawa, Loudlove comes to the Habitat on Nov. 13th

www.loudlove.com
In a world where many bands go to great lengths to describe their “sound”, Loudlove chooses to simply invite you to listen to our music and make up your own mind as to what we are. We have been described as powerful, honest and genuine. Loudlove is a band with rock, reggae, blues and many other influences but all of that should be ignored. We would rather see the smiles and the sweat pouring off you as you dance to our music and enjoy the atmosphere at a Loudlove show. Loudlove

The proof of any artist is their live performance. Are they studio creampuffs or are they the real deal? Only one body can decide that and that body is you, the audience member, the fan, the crowd. So let’s forego the pomp and circumstance, the posturing and the bullshitting. We invite you to listen to our music, come to a show and decide for yourself if you want to become a Loudlover or not. Besides, we will rock the shit outta you whether you want to or not. Sincerely, Your new favorite band, Loudlove.

Steve Strongman – Nov 19th at Doc Willoughby’s

As a teenager, Steve Strongman would sneak up the fire escape at Kitchener’s renowned blues club Pop the Gator to listen to the music that moved his soul. It was here, sitting in with many of them, that the young guitar protégé cut his teeth on the music that would become the keystone of everything to follow.

Beginning his professional career at the age of 16, playing clubs all around southern Ontario, it wasn’t long until Strongman caught the eye of Mississippi Blues legend Mel Brown. Under his tutelage, Steve met and played with many of the Blues legends of the time. In fact, it was after one blistering opening set that Chicago soulster Otis Clay exclaimed, “I’m gonna do what you do…”

David P. Smith @ Sun Peaks

Armed with a used suit, an accordion, and penchant for twisted lyricism, Victoria BC’s worst kept David P. Smith, is embarking on a rare tour of western Canada. He may not be a national household name, but in his hometown or anywhere else in striking distance, David P. Smith’s song-writing prowess and emotionally charged live performances have garnered an almost cult-like status amongst his fans and fellow musicians.

“You may not make it, but you have to try. Otherwise, what are we doing here? And isn’t this, in fact, the most common thread uniting country, hillbilly, blues, or devotional musics, for example? The resignation to, and the quest for joy in Struggle?”
