EastScene’s BERNARDA GOSPIC sat down with John Nolan and Mark O’Connell of Taking Back Sunday on their Toronto stop of this summer’s tour—the first time playing in Canada as the original lineup in over eight years.

Eastscene’s Shelby Wilson got the chance to sit down with main stage- gracing, Florida native, A Day To Remember. This band, having one of the largest crowds I’ve ever seen at any Warped Tour date, is surprisingly made up of down to earth people; just a bunch of fun seeking boys that pretty much just [...]

One band that everyone should definitely give their attention to on this years Warped Tour is New York’s own Moving Mountains. With a distinctively different sound and the attention of MTV (in a good way, trust me), this band is one that surely won’t disappoint you. You know how the Warped Tour check list says [...]

Warped Tour was finally here! Eastscene’s Shelby Wilson started her day with probably the most anticipated band on the entire tour.

ES: Have you [...]

Recently, Eastscene, had the opportunity to get some questions answered with Ryan Guldemond from Vancouver based band Mother Mother. We hope you enjoy this one! Your band has such a unique sound, Where does this style come from? Hmm, hard question to answer. I think our voices are a little strange and the melodies/chord progressions a [...]

As a Torontonian, I love to be presented with local art and culture. While I confess to fence-sitting briefly when first introduced to Hamilton trio The Barettas, their debut 7″ was eagerly welcomed into my library. Grab it here; three days was all it took to get me hooked on the catchy pop riffs and [...]

Recently, Eastscene writer Shelby Wilson, had the opportunity to have a quick phone conversation with Matt Johnson from the duo Matt and Kim. Although short, there were many things talked about, some of which certain fans may not know about. You know that crazy video where Matt and Kim are running [...]

Yo La Tengo Fail Tuesday, October 19, 2010. It was a glorious night to be in Williamsburg, Brooklyn. The weather was fair, with music lilting over the sidewalks from venues participating in this year’s CMJ Music Marathon & Film Festival. Clutched in my hand was my spandy-new CMJ press badge, a laminated card boasting not only [...]
