SUMMARY:Silence Presents: David James Allen & The Growing Machine
DESCRIPTION:David James Allen & The Growing Machine return this fall in support of the new album Jubilation Potpourri. \n\n\n\n\nDavid James Allen & The Growing Machine return this fall in support of the new album Jubilation Potpourri. Featuring pedal steel and a dynamic\, groove-driven one-person band setup\, the performance moves between spacious\, rhythmic passages and intimate songs—offering a memorable night for listeners who value thoughtful\, live music. \nDAVID JAMES ALLEN\nOn his latest single\, “By Your Side\,” Canadian singer/songwriter and multi-instrumentalist David James Allen provides a soothing balm for anyone experiencing tough times. Built upon an easy-flowing groove and featuring the soaring pedal steel work of Andrew Ivens\, Allen sings with honest conviction that any of life’s trials can be overcome through love and commitment. “By Your Side” is the latest preview of Allen’s forthcoming album Jubilation Potpourri\, following “Platform No. 12 (Old Friends)\,” which was added to Sirius XM’s North Americana and CBC Music’s Canadian Country playlists. David James Allen has been releasing music for more than a decade\, but over the past several years—after moving east of Toronto to the wilds of Prince Edward County—he has been startlingly prolific. Beginning with 2017’s When The Demons Come and carrying on through 2020’s Radiations and the following year’s The Architect\, Allen has been steadily amassing a remarkable body of work that stands alongside those of any of his Canadian contemporaries. He cites Canadian poets Al Purdy and Nelson Ball for inspiring many of his lyrics\, with a predominant theme being the perils of hard living. Musically\, whether channelling the rootsy funk of The Band and Bill Withers\, or delivering a devastating ballad in the style of Townes Van Zandt and Harry Nilsson\, David James Allen’s music is built upon a soulful foundation few of his contemporaries possess\, putting him firmly at the vanguard of the alt-country/Americana scene. \nJOSEPH GALLO JR.\nCombining dark\, pop progressions with moody lounge piano\, Guelphs’ Joseph Gallo Jr.(Lowlands / Alanna Gurr / Odd Years / The Yage Letters\, Lazu Lie\, Motion.Picture.Cinema) is set to perform an array of solo material\, accompanied by some of Guelph’s finest players\, in a rare live band performance. \nDriven by a first-world malaise\, Gallo Jr’s tongue-in-cheek lyrics assimilate effortlessly within emotional piano ballads – much in the same vein as Lennon or Randy Newman. Other times\, Gallo Jr’s capricious outlook and lyrical vulnerability is juxtaposed by a polished crooner vocals\, while oozing with tension and heartache. \nFans of Harry Nilsson\, Ben Folds\, Emily Haines and Tobias Jesso Jr. take heed. \n“It’s impossible to call this one genre… At times you get controlled chaos and at others\, you get introspective piano melodies. It’s not pop\, it’s not lounge\, it’s not easy listening… but it’s definitely worthwhile.”

SUMMARY:Cello-centricity!: Raphael Weinroth-Browne - Lifeblood
DESCRIPTION:Experience the metal edge and Middle Eastern inflection of Weinroth-Browne’s acclaimed 2025 solo cello album Lifeblood. \n\n\n\nCello-centricity! kicks off with Raphael Weinroth-Browne’s Lifeblood\, a cello epic fusing metal intensity and Middle Eastern intricacy with Weinroth-Browne’s characteristic technical prowess and fervor. \nBuy tickets here \nDoors at 7:30\, music at 8:00 \nComing to multiple Cello-centricity! concerts? Consider a series pass! \nAll tickets are PWYC & NOTAFLOF (Pay What You Can & No One Turned Away For Lack Of Funds). If you want to come to a Cello-centricity! concert but are concerned about finances\, reach out to us at info@silencesounds.ca and we’ll make sure you’re taken care of. Music is for everyone. \nWe gratefully acknowledge the support of the Tivy Harris Foundation\, and our partners Royal City Brewing\, Revel Cider\, and Rachel Woodcock Design. \n\nRaphael Weinroth-Browne\n\nKnown for his emotionally charged performances and boundary pushing vision\, Raphael Weinroth-Browne has become one of the most innovative cellists of his generation. Merging his roots in progressive metal with a passion for Middle Eastern music\, he has forged a singular artistic voice that defies traditional expectations. \nHis cello work can be heard on over 200 studio albums\, including Woods of Ypres’ Juno Award-winning W5: Grey Skies & Electric Light and in major film and TV soundtracks. Viral cello covers of Opeth\, Katatonia and Steven Wilson have earned praise from the artists themselves\, while his genre-spanning studio and stage career continues to attract international attention. \nSince joining Norwegian progressive rock icons Leprous in 2016\, Weinroth-Browne has played over 200 shows worldwide with the band and helped shape the sound of three studio albums. He has shared stages with Evanescence\, Apocalyptica\, Devin Townsend and performed in front of 40\,000 at Hellfest\, as well as at prestigious venues such as London’s Royal Albert Hall. \nAs a solo artist\, Weinroth-Browne has become an ambassador for what the cello can bein the 21st century. He has made waves at prestigious festivals such as the Cello Biennale Amsterdam and the International Cello Festival of Canada and has opened for artists ranging from Polish neoclassical pianist Hania Rani to Nordic folk ensemble SKÁLD and Danish prog metal masters VOLA. \nIn recent years\, Weinroth-Browne has pushed further into experimental performance and contemporary dance. His solo debut Worlds Within (2020)\, a 40-minute composition built entirely from layered cello\, earned critical acclaim for its emotional depth and innovative form. In 2023\, he performed the album live with Ottawa Dance Directive to a sold-out audience at Canada’s National Arts Centre. In 2024\, he was commissioned by the UK’s James Wilton Dance to compose BACH Reimagined\, an 80-minute score that toured leading venues across the UK and Germany in 2025 and 2026. \nIn 2025\, Weinroth-Browne released his second full-length album Lifeblood. A bold artistic statement\, the album received glowing praise for its epic compositions and cinematic scope and was praised as “a triumph of vision and virtuosity” and “his best work yet.” Shortly after the release of Lifeblood\, Weinroth-Browne made a surprise guest appearance with VOLA\, performing alongside the band for the 10th anniversary of their debut album Inmazes. \nWeinroth-Browne’s career continues to gain momentum in 2026 with multiple tours of the UK and Europe as well as the release of his third album Empyrean. Originally written for the BACH Reimagined tour with James Wilton Dance\, this new body of work weaves together Baroque purity with post rock and experimental noise\, uniting the atmospheric and ethereal quality of Worlds Within with the Middle Eastern melodies and metal edge of Lifeblood. \nArtist links\nOfficial Website\nBandcamp\nInstagram\nFacebook

SUMMARY:Cello-centricity!: Raphael Weinroth-Browne - Empyrean
DESCRIPTION:Weinroth-Browne weaves together Baroque purity with post-rock and experimental noise with music from his 2026 cello album Empyrean. \n\n\n\n\nCello-centricity! hurdles into its second concert with Empyrean\, a concert-length journey adapted from a commission for contemporary dance. Raphael Weinroth-Brown interprets the influence of Bach through the ages into present day\, where Baroque counterpoint unfolds with modern metal\, post-rock\, and experimental noise. Whereas Lifeblood meditates on the organic\, materiality\, and mortality\, Empyrean looks beyond to the spiritual and sublime. \nBuy tickets here \nDoors at 7:30\, music at 8:00 \nComing to multiple Cello-centricity! concerts?
