Ruby Slippers Indie Week November 10 2017 7-8 pm

Hey hey everybody!

It is Indie Week and boy is there a lot of stuff going on. Frankly my head is in a spin and I only went out to two events. Just to let you know, CIUT is sponsoring a show at the Horseshoe called Taste of Iceland on Saturday and it's free, but you will have to get a ticket online.
https://www.ticketfly.com/event/1574115-taste-iceland-in-toronto-toronto/
Hurry as this event fills up very quickly!

Anyhow, the playlist this week includes a good number of artists from Indie Week and also some indie artists who are not part of the festival. You may notice there is more metal than I normally include. Was a judge at Cherry Cola's and the showcase was, you guessed it, metal. Pretty intense and impressive! Had to share some of that with you this time around. (Always invest in good hearing protection, it's so worth it)

Enjoy

Too Close For Comfort ...The Ocean Cure * (Indie Week)
Brother ... Grown Up Avenger Stuff  (Indie Week)
Irresistible ... Velvet Supersloths * (Indie Week)
Plastic Gold ... Fufanu (Indie Week) (Taste of Iceland showcase)
Playing God ... Vinyl Hero * (Indie Week)
Thumbsucker ... Double Experience * (Indie Week)
Wardrobe Malfunction ... The Empty Page (Indie Week) (winner of the UK Indie Week)
The Moon Will Never Turn on Me ... Mannut (Indie Week) (Taste of Iceland showcase)
Breathe Me In ... ash.OK (new)
Friends Don't Lie (Stranger Things theme) ... Septembryo * (new)
This Is Now ... The Knife (just wanted to play this)
Punk Shadows ... Blood and Glass * (Indie Week)
Abaddon ... Hunting Owls * (Indie Week)
Ghost I Know ... Anthems in Ashes  * (Indie Week)
Father Pray ... Pat Robitaille * (Indie Week)

Next week is Membership time. Will be onair Monday at 7 and then again Friday for Ruby Slippers.
Please consider supporting community radio with a donation, much appreciated (www.ciut.fm)

Thanks for listening
