Guys. I’m still coming down off the high from the We Are The City/Nuuka/Belle Game/Hannah Epperson show at the KCT on Thursday. What a beautiful night. What a beautiful temperature. What beautiful people. It was a perfect start to the long-weekend. Now, here we all are, back at work. Bummer. I don’t know about you […]

A-OK Mixcast Nineteen

Wow, what another great year (maybe the best?). There’s definitely been a shift lately, as some local bands left town to pursue success in a bigger market like Vancouver and to tour Canada, many other new bands have formed and scattered themselves across the landscape. It’s not unusual to see 8-10 shows every Friday and […]

A-OK Mixcast Fifteen

It’s been quite a year in the A-OK. Some people claimed local music has taken a step back, but it could just be the tall trees have lost their leaves giving the saplings a chance to emerge and grow. Lots of music, a fair amount of shows and we’ve sorted through a large amount to […]
