BDM and London Calling presents a summer series featuring all of our favourite highlights from this summer’s antics with the Musicians, Comedians and Artists we’ve run into. We put together a few short clips with some memorable moments in London, and at NXNE 2011. Tune into London Calling Season 5 (LCV) this winter to see more of what you didn’t.
LAUREN MANN AND THE FAIRLY ODD FOLK @ CRAVEN COTTAGE
JULY 4 2011
The experience of Craven Cottage is not that of a bar, nor a pub patio. I wouldn't extend a resemblance to a house party either, (from what I've seen in my 'college years'). No, Craven Cottage was a true feature this summer; a place to gather round friends, and friends-of-friends to have drinks, conversations, and watch live music.
Located pretty well out-of-sight (if you're not a frequent bike trail'er), on the outskirts of the downtown core, Craven Cottage hosted a few get-togethers. I placed myself there for a show July 4th 2011, to see Lauren Mann and the Fairly Odd Folk, feat. Reeves, and took some pictures, and captured some songs. Here's one.

LCV SUMMER FEATURE | PAT does NXNE

Pat does Comedy @ NXNE 2011
P adds comedic element to NXNE - Awkward street report Pat the 'riff'in' Tiffin might not have a local comedy bar to test his latest jokes, but he's got this segment and its pretty good. NXNE welcomes comedy to their historically music dominated festival and, in the process, Pat snuck his way into the festival - accredited and all.

METZ @ APKlive April 2011
If you haven't seen Metz play, well then na-na-na-na-boo-boo. Get out, throw your shoulder into someone and watch how three of the most talented artists (one formally of Moneen) in Canada thrash for real deal. METZ drummer, Hayden (he says it), tunes about the best way to learn the drums. Just play along yo.

LCV SUMMER FEATURE | HANDSOME FURS

Handsome Furs in Trinity Bellwoods @ NXNE 2011
The band may have thought that we were from London, England [London Calling, Joe Strummer = misleading] but we got the dang interview. Dan and wife/band mate, Alexei, clearly enjoy cigarettes, big beats, and they are also the hottest couple I've ever seen. And, with the release of their third full length Sound Kapital [2011], Handsome Furs are more relevant than ever before.
In the clip, the couple/band talk about where they find the inspiration for their music; from the UK, to Beijing. Been-there-done-that, and bringing it home.

TWIN SHADOW @ NXNE 2011
Pat and I got to chat with lead man, George Lewis Jr. of Twin Shadow blocks away from Lee's Palace just a few hours before the bands NXNE performance. Everything about this man stands out. His calm energy and careful focus balancing his musical talents and obvious love of women. George Lewis Jr. breaks down the romantic setting in Greenwich Village, which spawned the track Yellow Balloon off his first release Forget [2011]. The follow up to Forget might be one of the most anticipated releases of this year.
