Grolsch Spaces presented a free show by Brooklyn NY power pop band Charly Bliss along with amazing opening acts Pony and The Effens at The Horseshoe Tavern. Click through to my pics of the two openers.

Charly Bliss spent a long time on the “bands I want to see” list before they became a band I’d seen. I loved their show at The RecRoom and was excited for this Horseshoe Tavern show.

In short, we got a fantastic Charly Bliss show. Highlights of the high-energy set were a cover of Cindy Lauper's "All Through the Night", a bunch of very cool sounding new songs and so many great tunes from the rest of the band's catalog, focused on their most recent full-length, Guppy.

You could feel the energy bouncing back and forth between the crowd down front and the band on stage; getting higher and higher and higher as the set went on. Sadly, it couldn't go on forever, although somehow I think we missed out on an encore tune.

I know I'm not alone when I say that I can't wait for the band to record and release new music, and for them to swing back through Toronto on tour.

Here's a bunch of tunes from the band's setlist:

"Heaven"

"Percolator"

"DQ"

"Black Hole"

"Glitter"

"Love Me"
