Headlining the evening is a band who has played a couple of great shows over the years at the Linsmore, Pablo Paddy! Pablo Paddy is an indie rock project formed by singer-songwriter Patrick Beedling. After cutting his teeth as a solo artist in St. Catharines’ downtown music scene, Beedling recruited local players to bring his songs to life. The music—eclectic, and moody— draws from a range of influences, including folk, alternative, art-rock, and indie. With a rotating cast of members the group, called Barbarosa until 2019, has remained active in the Ontario club scene, playing regularly in Toronto, Hamilton, and Niagara.
The Spare Parts is one of our favourite original bands in the country who has headlined a number of great shows over the years at the Linsmore Tavern! Toronto band The Spare Parts are an Indie-Americana band with a Southern inspired Rock n’ Roll flavour. Their debut single Morning Light is a guitar driven bluesy banger of a tune, while their second single Life Moves Fast is a catchy, feel good Country / Rockabilly song. On their debut album Infatuation (June 4th) The Spare Parts show an aptitude for blurring the lines of genre, creating not just a collection of songs; but an album in the truest sense of the word. There is a refreshing earnestness to Toronto born lead singer Phillip Vonesh’s vocals and lyricism that harkens back to the 70’s; think Warren Zevon and Levon Helm. Lead guitarist Bill Dyan was born near Milan, Italy and is affectionately known as The Italian Stallion. He plays with a signature tone and a classic feel. His guitar cascades throughout the album, from blaring solos to catchy licks. Bassist Gavin Quinn (The Tower Of Power) was also born in Toronto, and is the band’s steady hand. While the vocal melodies and electric guitar vie for your attention, Quinn’s smooth and steady bass tones give roots to the melodies and grounds them for the tapping of your toes.
Arih SK is a mostly happy guy writing mostly sad songs about loss, nostalgia, family, and relationships. He spends his workday designing and inspecting bridges. After dinner, he’s at home with his family, likely sitting on the couch with his guitar, thinking about a new song.
