Sunday April 8 @ Sneaky Dee’s <\/strong>
\nWavelength 358 — co-presented with the Images Festival
\nDoors 9pm, cover: pay what you can<\/p>\n

It’s not often that we promote rock shows, but this gig is certainly worth it. Scarborough A\/V<\/strong> is exactly what the name suggests: an audio-visual tribute to Scarborough, Ontario. This new project from members of the rock outfits Republic of Safety and Soft Copy combines the bleak and beautiful images of the Scarberian landscape of apartment blocks, strip malls, green space, subdivisions, ravines, malls and transit lines with original, instrumental guitar rock.<\/p>\n

With a membership that’s three-quarters native Scarberian, guitarist\/videographer Andrew McAllister, guitarist Jonny Dovercourt and and drummer Paul Boddum (along with bassist and transplanted Newfoundlander Wes Hodgson) explore the conflict in revisiting their hometown: both the classic angst of growing up in dullsville suburbia, and the unique present-day potential of Scarborough to develop into a vital community.<\/p>\n

The rest of the lineup includes:

12am<\/strong> — Tinkertoy with projectionists (BC\/Toronto minimal indie techno duo collaborates with Toronto projectionist artists curated by Iris Fraser-Gudrunas) — myspace.com\/tnkrty<\/a><\/em>
\n11pm<\/strong> — Scarborough A\/V (psychedelic post-punk soundtracks to suburban video art) <\/em>
\n10pm<\/strong> — Toronto indie music video screening (curated by Kevin Parnell & Iris Fraser-Gudrunas)<\/em><\/p><\/blockquote>\n
