    CLASSIC ALBUMS LIVE PRESSKIT Classic Albums Live Remember when you used to listen to an entire album? Classic Albums Live does. For the first time in popular music, the greatest albums from the 60s and 70s are recreated live on stage, note for note- cut for cut. "There's a real thirst to hear these albums performed start to finish", says series producer, Craig Martin. For many of us this is the music we grew up with - the soundtrack of our lives. All of our focus is put into the music." Says Martin, "We perform the works of the Beatles, Pink Floyd, Led Zeppelin, Fleetwood Mac, Bowie, Eagles and many others the same way an orchestra performs the works of Mozart or Beethoven. We don't bother with imitation or impersonation. The bands are big - upwards of 11 pieces. We research these albums and go to great lengths to reproduce each and every sound live. We never use tape or computers. We'll bring in a children's choir, a sitar player a string quartet, whatever it takes to get it right."

Artwork courtesy of Kent Monkman Kent Monkman’s rebellious 150th­anniversary show The Cree iconoclast’s sesquicentennial exhibition is more a critique than a celebration of Canada’s http://torontolife.com/culture/toronto­events­january­2017­kent­monkman­ripleys­beach­party­last­wife/ 1/6 1/25/2017 What to do in Toronto this week: January 23 to 29, 2017 first 150 years. The sprawling show begins in the present, with scenes of prison brawls, and divine visitations on the streets of northern Winnipeg and modern reserves. Those images hang next to depictions of Monkman’s drag queen alter ego, Miss Chief Eagle Testickle, reigning over fur traders in New France. Together, the works are meant to trace—and rewrite—the history of Canadian colonialism and highlight Indigenous resilience. Thursday, January 26 to Saturday, March 4.
