The Reason Rock #CMW At Lee’s Palace!

Last night was the kick off for Canadian Music Week… and I was there at Lee’s Palace for The Reason.

It was pretty cool being in the crowd to see the band take the stage at 11pm since I sit about 9 feet away from guitar player Mike Caputo on a regular basis and ban.jo is constantly telling me that he’s near me. The boys in the band played a good set, had the crowd into it and won the night.

Note: The bonus win of the night was Weezer’s Tired of Sex to close the set.

If you don’t know of the band… get with it!

Here’s how they break down

• Adam White – Vocals, Guitar
• James Nelan – Guitar, Vocals, Keys
• Michael Caputo – Guitar
• Ronson Armstrong – Bass, Vocals
• Chris Henry – Drums
• @thereasonrock

The boys are based in Hamilton, ON and are doing a pretty great job of making music these days. Plus lead singer Adam White is a “total f*cking babe” according to long time fan @rlangdon.

I won’t deny singing along very loudly to both Longest Highway Home and Where Do We Go From Here… and it was a huge relief because I can’t be letting myself sing them in the office.

Note: If you’re in Toronto this weekend and feeling adventurous, The Reason are taking the stage at the Legendary Horseshoe Tavern at 2:30 Saturday night and the bar will be serving until 4am. Just wanted to be a good friends and let you know.

All said and done it was a bad ass set that didn’t have any rock and roll bullshit, just rock and roll.

But you don’t have to take my word for it. See what Trish had to say -> Slackers Canadian Music Week 

It’s a great weekend for music in Toronto. Have a great time and be sure to spread the love for your favourite artists all over the internet and to your friends!

Enjoy!
