KC Roberts & the Live Rev @ The Horseshoe: Apr 6th

KC Roberts & The Live Revolution team up with The Morning Thieves to give you a night of unstoppable original funk and rock music. With DJ Kenny Bounce spinning some deep-ass grooves between sets, there is no way to prevent yourself from having a silly good night. We dare you to come and not have a smile on your face after ten minutes of music….

Join us on Fri, Apr 6th at the Horseshoe Tavern where KCLR will be unleashing their signature funk sound with some of our classic tunes, a couple never-heard-before tracks that will be on the upcoming album and perhaps a song from one of our YouTube cover videos.

Morning Thieves, fresh off their new EP “Wrongside”, are a fantastic guitar based alt-rock band that have become known for their powerful live performances and infectious songs. They will be hitting the stage at 10pm followed by KCLR at 11:30pm.

DJ Kenny Bounce is not just a DJ but an amazing musician, multi-instrumentalist and producer. It’s always a wicked vibe to have Kenny spinning the night. Kenny starts spinning at 9:30pm!

So tell everyone you know and spread the word.  Let’s have a party, let’s dance, let’s drink, let’s do this . . . PROPER!!!!

Doors open at 9:30 and cover is $10

Two Weeks left & Moxy Früvous’ River Valley

Hey guys, please check out our latest video. This is a cover of a song by a great Canadian band called Moxy Früvous. We tried to shift it around a bit and interpret it with a different kind of soul vibe. The message of loving this planet and being aware of the environment around us is a powerful one so it was easy to get lost inside the tune. We hope you enjoy our version. If you dig, please spread the word and check out www.parkdalefunk2.com. We are $5,000 away from our goal with exactly 2 weeks left. We need your help! Our deepest thanks!

Our version of Never Surrender by Triumph & Fri, Dec 16th @ The Lionheart British Pub

So this cover is a homage to a great Canadian rock band by the name of Triumph. We got the chance to play for them at an event in summer where a street was named after the group, “Triumph Lane”. We were invited to choose one of their songs and do our own interpretive cover. A lot of the obvious singles were taken, so I decided to go a little deeper into the catalog and find something that spoke to me lyrically and something the band could have some fun with musically. Hope you dig our funk spin on this Canadian progressive rock gem.

On another note, we’re going to be touching down this Friday, Dec 16th at the same venue where the “Triumph Lane” event was held. The Lionheart British Pub (3221 Derry Rd. West, just west of Winston Churchill Blvd in Mississauga) has invited us back to perform as part of our fundraising campaign. We’ll be dropping some serious funk starting at 9:30pm! If you’re in the area, we’d love to see you!

If you dig what we’re doing please go check out www.parkdalefunk2.com and help us make our next double length original record. All you have to do is pre-order a copy of the CD and you will have been a part of the Live Revolution!
