Where to begin this week but to acknowledge the bounty of musical goodness Bluesfest has announced will be coming to Ottawa this July: Coeur de Pirate, The Cult, Bryan Ferry, The Decemberists, Duran Duran, Sam Hunt, Lumineers, Brad Paisley, Nelly, Red Hot Chili Peppers and Wolf Parade, to name a few. (I actually did not meant to write that in alphabetical order …).
Note that tickets go on sale as of today (Thursday) at 10 a.m. and that full passes tend to disappear quickly. www.ottawablusfest.ca
But back to this Thursday night: Little Scream, aka Laurel Sprengelmeyer (name not made up) from Montreal, opens for Operators at Ritual, both offering art dance pop of the best sort: infectious, intriguing and slightly-different while remaining grounded in the familiar. Operators, founded by Wolf Parade’s Dan Boeckner, are to release their first album in April.
Likewise, Little Scream has a new (second) album coming out, a brand new label and a different sound: replacing the round-guitar, folk-pop sounds — if the single Love As a Weapon is any indication — with disco funk and Sprengelmeyer sitting comfortably in a high soprano falsetto. It’s edgier The Bird and the Bee — from the extreme range in the vocals to the very snappy guitars — with some good mantras for the love-lorn: “Just remember your greatest gift is to dance.” The new album, release date not confirmed, also comes with some beguiling collaborators, like Sharon Van Etten and Sufjan Stevens. Feb. 25, 10 p.m., Ritual. $13.50. spectrasonic.com
Also Thursday, Wakefield’s brother-sister duo The Strain ceases to exist, morphing into the new Rebelle, who take to the stage opening for experimental pop group We Are the City and HIGHS at House of Targ. The (actually three-member) group is being joined by childhood friend, Ryan Wiles, previously of the erstwhile Farewell Davidson.
Rebelle will play re-worked Strain songs, including two singles written over this past summer and a bunch David Taggart (the oldest member at 24, and the “band dad”) and Wiles have written over the past month. Their sound, Taggart said, will remain synth-injected, pop-rock with a bit more edge and, he says wrily, more coherent; partly due to their growing up, partly due to how well the band is working together (their drummer, Joey Kane, used to play in Farewell Davidson with Wiles). Expect some new songs by April and possibly an EP by the end of summer. Feb. 25, 9 p.m., House of Targ: $10. spectrasonic.com
On Friday, beware the captivating blue eyes of Liverpudlian indie-pop singer Banners, aka Mike Nelson (and previously known as Raines), who is on his first North American tour on the strength of an EP reminiscent of the big, raw sound of early Cold Play (the repetitive key strokes may also have something to do with that), leaving some to name him The Next Big Thing.
He opens for Toronto art-dance group Young Empires who, though they made a splash in 2012, are only now releasing their first full-length album, changing the carefree songs of youth for some electro tunes with more soul, and less reliance on the frenetic treble notes to get limbs moving, even including the synth-heavy So Cruel. This gig will start with the crowd mesmerized, then dancing in a sweaty tangle. Feb. 26, 8 p.m., Ritual. $15. spectrasonic.com
Gaspésie’s francophone sister duet Les soeurs Boulay have released a sophomore album that retains their sweet self-deprecation and still liberally mines their personal lives for song lyrics, despite adding a bigger band (not just two gals in a car any longer), award-wins and nominations (Polaris anyone?) and extensive travel to their experience. Though they do only sing in French (and the banter is utterly charming) the tone of their voices and harmonies on their folk pop songs — think Tegan and Sarah with traditional warmth — and fondness for different instruments (euphonium anyone?) is worth a listen alone. Feb. 27, 8 p.m., Salle Odyssée. $30-434. sallodyssee.ca
Also Saturday, Maria Doyle Kennedy, made famous for her role in The Commitments and most recently as Mrs. S in Orphan Black, is at The Black Sheep Inn performing modern folk songs with Irish flair, with Ottawa’s Jill Zmud singing “torch folk.” Feb. 27, The Black Sheep Inn. $20 in advance. theblacksheepinn.com
Part Latin crooner, part rapper and electro music producer, Boogát, has recently been dedicated to singing in his native Spanish (the Montreal resident is from Mexico) and sticking in a tropical bass/pop wheelhouse, winning him a Juno Award nominee for his recent album NeoReconquista in the World Music Album of the Year category. We’re also told his shows are a party. With DJ Trevor Walker. Feb. 27, 8 p.m., Mercury Lounge. $10 at the door.
Tuesday offers a night of indie synth-rock with pop edges at House of Targ, headlined by Regina’s Library Voices, whose November album release, Lovish (their third LP) is winning them attention across the country. The new songs have heavier guitar riffs than earlier ones — do not expect the hushed tones the name suggests — though the poppiest of the songs, Hey! Adrienne, is climbing charts. However, with the edge they also bring a slightly poignant element: to whit, Oh, Donna was written about the after-effects of a violent attack frontman Carl Johnson experienced, leaving him with brain damage that thankfully did not impair his ability to write this more mature and mindful album.
They play with Ottawa’s Bull Domino — falling on the rock side of the spectrum — and Townes that sits on the synthpop/dance side. March 1, 8 p.m., House of Targ. $10+ in advance. www.houseoftarg.com
Anyone seeking to be reminded of the promise of tulips and fresh breezes should catch Susie Arioli‘s feel-good jazz show on Thursday. The Montreal singer has emerged from a self-imposed hiatus with her first album in about five years, Spring, a collection of standard covers and four original songs that fit right in, all in English. However, the chat between songs will probably be that typical, dry Franglais found among Montrealers, if her Facebook page is any indication: “check out le video of my original chanson, Loverboy, que j’ai fait with my spiffy big band!”. March 3, 8 p.m. Salle Odyssée. $32-$36. sallodyssee.ca
For the sheer fun of it, we mention the Star Trek: The Ultimate Voyage performance at the National Arts Centre on Sunday. Here, a symphony performs the theme song from the TV Show, movies, musical themes used in the 50 years of the franchise (the conductor has stuff to say about the “Klingon sound on” their website), accompanied by relevant images on a big screen. Perfect for the Trekkie or wannabe score composer. Feb. 28, 7:30 p.m., NAC. From $59. nac-cna.ca
