Velvet Underground was the Toronto venue where I caught my third performance by The Regrettes. I can’t think of a band that is such a shining example of unbridled fun. The Regrettes are addictive. That addiction comes from their amazing tunes, their fun shows, and their positive and inclusive attitude. I'll take every opportunity I can to see the band live.

In terms of highlights, opening tune "California Friends" is one of my favourite tunes of 2019. "Dress Up", "Pumpkin", "Fog", "Seashore", "Stop and Go" and "Poor Boy" were all highlights of The Regrettes' set. I especially loved the group therapy of "Seashore" and the Stop! And go crazy of "Stop and Go". The Regrettes are inclusive, empowering, and cleared out the front for an all-girls pit. Cool!

Give their music some time with your ears if you're not already familiar, and please check out my photos of their shows at NXNE 2019 and NXNE 2017.

Don't forget to check out my shots of opening bands Greer and Hala.
