Two chances on Brooklyn Doran's latest tour to see the singer/songwriter in Durham Region.

Will McGuirk March 6, 2018

Singer/songwriter Brooklyn Doran is hooked on touring and has lined up an extensive Spring tour of Ontario. She will be on the road with Rory Taillon, a frequent tour mate.

Doran says she is working on a new record to be available later in the year but for now just enjoys performing.

"I won't be touring a new record this time around, I just like the tour life and Rory is a pretty rad tour bud to have! That being said, I think I'll have a few songs coming down the line later in the year."

Originally from Kenora, but now based in Toronto, Doran has played Durham Region previously, most recently at the Robert McLaughlin Gallery in November 2017. She plays Cork and Bean in downtown Oshawa May 1 and the Second Wedge Brewery in Uxbridge May 6 2018.

Pete Smith's 'Can I Kick It Remix Party' kicks off at the RMG Friday Mar 2

Will McGuirk March 1, 2018

The Remix - perhaps the defining artistic process of our time. To take previous works and using their elements make something new. We live at a time of disruption, of fragmentation when the entire planet, everything we know is being broken down into its essential base elements. We can take those pieces and build a new world., not just a song, not just a collage not just mash-up, but an entirely new world. Which is why we at www.slowcity.ca believe creativity is the most important tool and artists our greatest resource.

The remix is the process, the trial and error, the practise. Bowmanville artist Pete Smith is collaborating with other artists to recreate new works from those original works. Smith is working with Lyla Rye, Anda Kubis, John Kissick, Jessica Thompson, James Olley, Chief Ladybird and Paulette Phillips to choose an artist to partner with. They’ve chosen Christina La Sala, Jennie Suddick, Stu Oxley, Duncan Macdonald, Jennifer Wigmore, Mike Pszczonak, Aura and Jean-Paul Kelly. 

The Remix party kicks into action at the Robert McLaughlin Gallery Mar 2, 2018. Everyone who brings an artwork in for trade (regardless of age or experience level) is welcome to participate, and will leave with their own remixed piece of art. Anyone and everyone who enjoys making things are welcomed and encouraged to participate!

The Kick It Party is part of the RMG FF monthly events. This month musical guests are Melanie Hebert and Morgan Steele.
