- KARMA’S JAW seeking MALE VOCALIST & BASSIST Our current lineup consists of two guitar players and drummer. We’re all in our thirties. The music contains elements of alt. rock/metal, groove metal & post metal. In a general sense, we’re a heavy rock/metal band without being too extreme (Death metal, Grindcore, etc.), with the inclusion of quieter dynamics. VOCALIST: Someone who can be melodic most of the time. We'd like someone with a strong presence and who can deliver with conviction. We don't require a trained virtuoso or anything but someone with these characteristics. We also prefer to stay away from lyrics about sex, partying and overly self-indulgent content. A good lyricist is a plus although if lyrics aren't your strength, we can create and provide lyrics for you. BASSIST: Someone with at least 7-8 years’ experience on the instrument with decent gear and a willingness to contribute to the writing process.
Our plans are to grow musically, to record, to perform locally as well as playing out of town shows. Any joining members become equal writing contributors. We practice once a week at a shared & rented space in the East end of Ottawa that has a P.A. We've been together for a year and have created material for roughly 8-9 songs.

Nice to haves – if you can contribute to our background vocals (or sing lead on an occasional tune), and sometimes play some rhythm guitar. We’re organized and committed & rehearsing to gig in the Fall. We’re looking for someone to join the band, not a ‘jobber’. We are all constructive, positive, good people looking for same.

- Band seeking a versatile, expressive, groove-oriented drummer
Hello, my name is Mubarak. I am a singer-songwriter, keyboardist, and the bandleader for a professional Ottawa band called Airliner Blues Band. We are not your typical blues band, as our style of music draws on many roots-based, blues-influenced genres such as R&B, soul, southern rock, roots rock, funk, country, and reggae. We are seeking a dynamic drummer with solid timing and good feel, someone who can give a song what it needs rhythmically. We are looking for someone who is a quick learner and who can move from genre to genre with ease. A good attitude and dedication is a must. No ego please. I put this band together four years ago, and since then, we’ve played venues both in Ottawa and the surrounding area such as Fatboys Southern Smokehouse, the Rainbow Bistro, the Valley BBQ in Carleton Place, the John Street Pub in Arnprior, and Hurley’s Neighbourhood Grill just to name a few. We released our self-titled EP in the fall of 2012, and our debut full-length album Fired Up came out in the summer of 2014. We also got a chance to play at the 2014 Ottawa Royal Bank Bluesfest. If this interests you, feel free to email me or drop me a line at 613-302-4689

Beatlefest at the Brylee is a one day festival of live music, workshops, seminars, memorabilia marketplace and country fresh farm food held at the Brylee Farm, in the beautiful Petite Nation countryside, a mere 30 minute drive from downtown Ottawa, Canada.
Live music will be performed by four bands, playing Beatles songs all day long: The GreyTones, Tyler Kealey and the Nowhere Men, Scrambled Eggz and Bone.
John Rowlands, who as official photographer for Capitol Records of Canada photographed the Beatles during their Canadian visits, will display some of his photos and give a talk relating his experiences with the Fab Four. Phil Jenkins will be on hand for a Beatles talk and solo show.
The venue, la Ferme Brylee, is famous for its fine food products, locally sourced, and prepared in its own commercial kitchen. Guests can bring their own wine, beer and beverages and have a country feast in a perfect setting. Small plates and tapas are included in the price of admission, and so is free onsite parking. Bus packages from Ottawa are also available.
Bring your lawn chairs, your cooler and your sunscreen and enjoy a fabulous day of Fab Four everything. If it rains, the whole thing moves inside the spacious barn, full of rustic charm and already beautifully appointed for large receptions.
Tickets can now be purchased online at the event website, at the Brylee Farm or at Fabgear 64, 1112 Wellington Street in Ottawa’s Hintonburg district.

Minimum $50 payout and more if the enough people come through the door. Email me and let me know if you are interested. Preference will certainly go to people who share some video or sound clip showing their chops. I can share a song list at that time. Cheers

Sunderland came from behind to defeat ten-man QPR at Loftus Road.
Tony Mowbray believes QPR midfielder Jack Colback’s red card was merited, despite the fact that the Sunderland manager has yet to watch a replay of the incident. Sunderland came from behind to win 3-1 at Loftus Road, but the red card shown to former Black Cats midfielder Colback midway through the first half, when QPR led 1-0, proved decisive.
Colback’s lunging challenge on Jobe Bellingham left the Sunderland man writhing in pain and referee Dean Whitestone decided it merited a straight red. “I haven’t seen it back yet,” said Mowbray.
“What I would say is that I thought the referee had a difficult day, to be honest, particularly in the first half. I’m not sure I agreed with many of his decisions in the first half.
“What I gauge it by was the reaction of the players, which was quite abrupt – everybody went racing over as if it was a really bad tackle. It wasn’t one of those where they weren’t sure … everybody went over because they were protective of their teammate and that tells me it was a bad challenge, but I haven’t seen it back.”
QPR had taken the lead inside the opening quarter-hour through Kenneth Paal, but a deflected strike from Jack Clarke in first-half injury time levelled things up. And then Dan Ballard put Sunderland in front just before the hour, with Abdoullah Ba adding the third with ten minutes remaining.

Mowbray said: “I thought we started really well in the game, dominated, and then they scored. It wasn’t as if they were peppering our goal and giving us problems, but it was a good goal, right in the bottom corner, a good strike.
“I felt it was a matter of time before we scored and it was great that we scored before half-time. But I sat and watched for 20-25 minutes and we needed some more creativity on the pitch so at half-time Niall [Huggins] was off and Patrick [Roberts] was on and there was a bit of a change of shape and we got control but they [QPR] were trying to be protective of what they have.
“We’ve got some good footballers and we got the job done, but I think we deserved it. I’ve watched a lot of their games and they spend a lot of time out of possession – I think their average possession is about 33 percent – so we knew we would have a lot of the ball, it was about how you break down their defensive block and we found a way today.”
Sunderland were dealt a blow in the first half when Pierre Ekwah walked out, but Mowbray indicated it was not a major injury and that the midfielder could be available for the midweek trip to Blackburn Rovers. “Pierre hasn’t trained much this week because he’s been dealing with a dead leg,” Mowbray explained.
“He trained on Friday, so we thought he’d be fine for the game because it wasn’t a strain or a tear, just a bang on the thigh.” The trouble was that he got a bang in the same spot a few minutes later; he tried to run it off but couldn’t, so we just took him off.
“We’ll put some heat on it, massage it, and hopefully it’ll be fine for Wednesday.”
Mowbray was also forced to make two changes to his starting lineup against QPR, missing out on Bradley Dack and Dennis Cirkin. Midfielder Dack had a minor strain and may be able to play against his former team on Wednesday night at Ewood Park, while left-back Cirkin has a hamstring injury and will be out for at least a couple of weeks.
“Bradley just has a slight strain, and he’s very hopeful of being ready for Wednesday,” Mowbray said. We could have brought him, but we didn’t think it was worth the risk today, so he’s a strong bet for the Blackburn game
“Dennis is a different kettle of fish; he’s got a hamstring strain and will be out for at least a couple of weeks, if not longer.” Of course, this is a setback for us, but Niall [Huggins] came in today and performed admirably for us.
“We just felt like with the way the game was going, the heat, and the fact that they only had ten men, we could get Roberts on for that bit of creativity.”
