Matt Robbie McLean (of the Wicks), will be opening for the Victoria based experimental prog-rock/jazz band Wooler at the Norway House on April 27th, performing songs from his upcoming album. Tickets are available through Eventbrite. Hope to see you there!

What better to do on a Thursday night than to venture out of your cramped living space to check out some real music played by real people?

"We wanted to send an unequivocal thank you for the kind words these past couple weeks, for listening to the record, for sharing it, for writing us, and for supporting new independent music in general. For those who are buying it, and especially those who are generously paying more, your support goes a long way. Every penny from the sales of this record is going towards the purchase a 1/2" tape machine, to do future projects on. So none of it will be spent on beer, or fuzzy hats. We also wanted to mention, the record is available at https://highandlonelyrecords.com, and anyone who is able to pay $25 or more will be sent two B-sides from this record, as an additional thank you. But of course we appreciate all of it!
Much love,
the Wicks"

"At long last, we're incredibly excited to present to you our new record 'Leaning In The Sun'. This record began while we were living in Montreal, was finished in Victoria, and we're super proud of the hard work everyone put in to it. We're grateful to be able to play music with such kind, talented people. So pour some wine, open a beer, and celebrate with us tonight! Hope you guys enjoy.
Much love,
the Wicks"
