Saturday May 10th Doors at 7.30pm Show starts 8.00pm $20/ PWYC Colour Film: With songs that play like home movies, Colour Film is Hamilton’s Matthew de Zoete with a band of friends filling out a cinematic roots palette. Mixing a storyteller’s eye for detail with a knack for melody and beautiful harmonies, they present snapshots of everyday life that illuminate the underlying currents, as heard on their 2024 album Half An Hour. Colour Film concerts are communal experiences, engaging audiences with stories and sing-alongs. Here’s a recent review from a SOCAN exec: “He sounded great, gentle but intense, while his backing singer offered sublime harmonies. As haunting as the music is, his onstage banter is the exact equal-but-opposite — funny, self-deprecating, and utterly charming.” Anna Wiebe: Singer-songwriter Anna Wiebe hails from Guelph, Ontario and writes thoughtful, delicate songs. Her songwriting stands alone, supported only by her resonant vocals, and in…

Silence Presents: Mas Aya & Khôra
January 18th, 2025 Doors: 7:30PM Show: 8:00 PM Tickets: $20/notaflof Khôra is the mystical and ekstatic transmission of Toronto composer, multi-instrumentalist, and writer Matthew Ramolo. Spanning decades and numerous pathways of expression, Ramolo’s musical workings as Khôra are rooted in the unitive, alchemical wisdom of the hermetic tradition. Collapsing philosophical and mythical realms into sonorous and symbolic form, Khôra approaches the collective overcoming of time through the induction of trance, guiding witnesses to the threshold of our shared illusions. Ramolo has been performing and independently releasing instrumental music since 2006, reissuing inaugural album Silent Your Body Is Endless through Constellation Record’s Musique Fragile series in 2010. Khôra’s most recent offering is entitled Gestures of Perception, a double LP and book of poetic mythography and abstracted occult imagery released by the Marionette label in 2024. ‘Coming And Going’ is the fifth release from Mas Aya, pseudonym of acclaimed Nicaraguan-Canadian composer, producer, and musician…
