13 QUESTIONS WITH MATT WOODS MP3 Matt Woods-Days Of Walking MP3 Matt Woods - Ghost of the Gospel Who’s Matt Woods you say? Well, in short, he’s a Jameson soaked singer songwriter that will be playing at the Buzzbin Art & Music Shop (Yeah once again for the record, our office is a record store…cool we know) on March 25th in downtown Canton. Also playing will be Michael Dean Damron (from Portland OR) and then both artists will be performing later in the evening at Old Glory on Harrisburg Rd. Both shows are free! This will kick off what will be known as the “Last Fr...
Ok so Old Glory can't "officially" have shows right now... but think of it as a speakeasy where there is an occasional "event". On March 25th... the speakeasy is open to music lovers of Canton to come listen to some of the finest Alt-country/ Americana artists in the USA. FOR FREE! You get to hear Knoxville Tennessee's Matt Woods, Suburban Home Records recording artist Michael Dean Damron ( all the way from Portland OR), Henry "The Knife" Daggs from Murfreesboro Tennessee and Canton's very own country crooner Donnie Casey!! All of The Most Beautiful Losers and their cohorts will be there s...
The Losers at The Rock! The Most Beautiful Losers will be raging out at Ronali's The ROCK in Massillon Friday night!!! Go get your drink on! Also playing are The Said So, The Spitwads and The Dead Records! A great way to spend your Friday night....
The Spitwads are from Akron's deepest darkest punk rock bowels. They play songs about porn stars and masturbation, wear stinky leather jackets, converse shoes and consume enough cheap beer to put down a large horse. They will be in full-on pop-punk debauchery mode at Ronali's The Rock in Massillon on Friday March 4th. You may need to wear a raincoat. The Said So, The Dead Records (from Ft Wayne IN) and The Most Beautiful Losers will also be there swilling beer and delivering fine rock treats for you kiddies....
Fort Wayne Indiana seems to have a burgeoning music scene and is a city that seems similar in many ways to Canton and Akron. Blue-collar and just beginning to embrace a growing art and music scene, the weather is pretty much the same and I have a feeling that the musicians that live there have that same sense of longing to escape as the guys from around here do. As the first chords of The Dead Records new cd blared from my speakers I imagined these guys spending the winter holed up in a basement, staying warm by ripping into their instruments,writing songs and hanging out together. The g...
Baltimore band The Matrimonials will be at Dropkix Irish Pub in Canton Saturday Feb 26th. Visiting our fair city for a brief moment to share their manic and gorgeous rock and pop songs of garagey noise... this show is a must see! Don't miss these guys, they will have you begging for more Pavement-style rock candy by the end of the night! Show starts at 9pm. Also playing are The Said So, Goldplated Hollowpoint and The Most Beautiful Losers. The Matrimonials on Youtube...
“Up to it, down to it, damn the man who can’t do it,” the four men chant. “If you can’t do it, you oughta be nailed to it. And not let do it.” Shot glasses flash in the air and slam back on the bar, and Canton band The Most Beautiful Losers are ready to hit the stage. Begun by its vocalist, Chris Bentley, this hard-drinking, hard-working band was originally supposed to be a foray into classic country music. It veered into rock territory as Bentley began to teach himself the electric guitar, taking cues from acts like alt-rock pioneers The Replacements, whom the band idolizes. ...
By Denver Collins First Friday The rain held off just long enough to hear some captivating new music at First Friday in Canton on the 4th. The Big Sweet, a young rock/alternative band of 15 and 16-year-olds, played a solid set in front of the Imperial Room for a crowd of wandering pedestrians and proud parents. Made up of drummer Drew Watson, bassist Matt McDonald, rhythm guitarist Brad Berbarie and lead guitarist/vocalist Sam Regas, the group shows promise and an excellent musical IQ. They cite Tom Petty, Sonic Youth, The Pixies and Wilco as major musical influences. They appear to ...
1. Dinosaur Jr. J Mascis & Co. wash that gray away on November 20 at the Grog Shop in support of all the Farm proving you’re never too old for 90s alt rock. 2. The Most Beautiful Losers Congratulations go out to the Most Beautiful Losers who became the first ever Canton band to play the world famous Whiskey a Go Go in LA while on the Wrecked 2009 tour. They join the ranks of The Doors, Led Zeppelin and the Ramones. Catch them back home at LaMoore’s in Massillon on November 7. 3. Lez Zeppelin You guessed it, Lez Zeppelin are a bunch of broads that sing Led Zeppelin tunes… qui...
We headed downtown to Maria’s Arcadia Grille to meet Canton’s The Most Beautiful Losers. Sam Huff and Chris Bentley were looking rough, and this first thing that came out of Bentley’s mouth was “We’re still hungover. Sorry.” Brad Belcher strolled in and ordered a coffee. Akron has The Black Keys, and Canton has The Most Beautiful Losers, a drinking band with a rock and roll problem. They’ve been through a plethora of band mates, brawled in bars all over the country and had the city shut down their home base and most underground club of all time. Born in 2002, Bentley and B...
