Trevor Howard and Kirby at Egan's Pub

Sunday, 25 July 2010 17:05 Written by Northern Groove

trevor_1.jpgkirby_1.jpgHead down to Egan's Pub on Thursday, July 29th to see Trevor Howard and Kirby!

Both hailing from Hamilton, Ontario, Trevor Howard and Kirby are also passionate and heartfelt musicians.

Here's an excerpt from Kirby on myspace:

"Playing and writing music since age 16, KIRBY fronted Burlington, Ontario prog-rock band ‘First Time Fallen’ for several years and released his first solo EP 'Within These Walls' in 2007 before taking the figurative plunge with his next EP 'The Good Fight', in 2008. His sound displays his true passion, as he belts out emotional lyrics right from the bottom of his heart, coupled with the diversity of both a driving rock strum style and quiet thoughtful picking on the guitar, reminiscent of Nick Drake, John Mayer or Dallas Green."

And here's an excerpt from Trevor Howard's myspace page:

"I don’t talk about myself in the third person. Trevor hates that.
I love music. I hate silence.
I write songs. Songs write me.
I love my mom. She’s the bomb."

A Message From Econoline Crush

Tuesday, 20 July 2010 15:52 Written by Northern Groove

Econoline_Crush.jpgJust in case you weren't aware that Fort St. John is a preferred touring destination for musicians, here's a message from Rob Morfitt of Econoline Crush (seen second from the left):

"On Thursday, June 25, I played my first show since rejoining Econoline Crush in Fort St. John at Egan's Pub. Eleven years ago in Denver, Colorado was the last time I had shared the stage with my band mates. Fort St. John was the first show of a nine date tour across BC and Alberta.

From the word go, the show ROCKED on every level! The staff and promoter at Egan's were kind, courteous, and accommodating before and after the show. The Fort St. John crowd didn't hold back and immediately got up and moved to the stage once we began playing. The exchange of energy between the band and audience was special and welcoming. Many people were going pretty crazy, dancing and jumping to the music throughout the set. This kind of action on my first show back was just what I needed to dig into and deliver the goods.

We hung out after the show to sign autographs and say hello to everyone. It was a pleasure to see that everyone had enjoyed themselves so much. When people asked on the tour how it was playing all the way up in Fort St John, I didn't hesitate in telling them that it was so awesome that we would definitely be making a regular stop in Fort St. John on our future tours.

Best,

Rob"
