NXNE 2019 The Regrettes - Concert Photos

I've become a pretty big Regrettes fan since I first saw them perform live at NXNE back in 2016. Those photos are right here. This time, it was NXNE again, but at the much more convenient location of Yonge and Dundas in downtown Toronto.

The Regrettes still have great songs and compelling yet relatable stage presence, but it's now wrapped with more confidence and intensity. That's an awesome combination.

They played us songs both new and old and had the crowd singing along and actively participating in the show. I love their empowering and inclusive message and the fun power of their tunes.

Check out some of the band's music and don't miss their live show.

"I Dare You"

"Seashore"

"Pumpkin"

"Dress Up"

"California Friends"

NXNE 2019 - Cleopatrick - Concert Photos

Cleopatrick rock. I found this out when I saw them perform at Riverfest Elora last summer. Those photos are here. When I saw them on the bill for NXNE at Yonge and Dundas, I knew I wanted to see them again.

They put on a fantastically powerful and intense set. I recommend you check out their tunes below and see them where they really shine, on stage at a venue near you.

"hometown"

"daphne did it"

"city kids"

NXNE 2019: Greys - Concert Photos

Greys always play an intense set. They project calm intensity in their stage presence, and all the power comes through the speakers and from singer/guitarist Shehzaad Jiwani's voice. I caught their set at the intersection of Yonge and Queen West during NXNE.

I caught their set with a bunch of other bands, including Alexisonfire at Recroom. Those photos are here.

Check out some of their music and I hope you'll go see them live.

"Kill Appeal"

"Guy Picciotto"

"Arc Light"

"Blown Out"

"Use Your Delusion"

NXNE 2019: Pottery at Lee's Palace - Concert Photos

Montreal's Pottery was the band to see at this NXNE showcase at Lee’s Palace and the band that got me off my couch to head out for a night of music. Pottery takes varied influences including post-punk, dance and pop, and turns them into frantic, intricate and furiously funky songs. There's no one else quite like Pottery around and I love their fantastic noise.

Also on the bill were Vypers, Brenda and The Fame. Click through to check out my photos of their sets.

And here’s some Pottery music. “Lady Solinas“ is currently in heavy rotation in my library.

"Lady Solinas"

"The Craft"

"Hank Williams"

NXNE 2019: Vypers at Lee's Palace - Concert Photos

Vypers were third up on the Lee’s Palace stage for an NXNE showcase. They played tunes that were bombastic and intense with a groove that got lots of people up front dancing.

Also on the bill were Pottery, Brenda and The Fame. Click through to check out my photos of their sets.

Here are some Vypers tunes:

"My Girl"
