Big Mouth by Necking - As Seen On Yellowjackets!

Spoiler Alert!

If you are one of the millions of people watching Yellowjackets right now, you may have already spotted Necking playing the song "Big Mouth" off their debut record Cut Your Teeth at the 8:19 mark of Episode 205: Two Truths and a Lie. 

Shot at Grandview Lanes on Commercial Drive, our very own Necking grabbed a few moments of screen time, appearing as the performing act at a bowling alley while their song played through the entirety of the scene. 

Rodeo Clown

Nora Kelly Band’s first full-length album Rodeo Clown roams the range of country-inflected styles–slow burners to foot stompers–but a theme ties it together. The painted smile of the clown, says band leader Kelly, is something she can relate to in some ways she likes–and others she is working to overcome.

Nora Kelly Band

Nora Kelly Band was born of friends jamming by the train tracks of Montreal’s Mile End neighbourhood. People flocked to listen and sing along–until the cops chased them off. NKB’s twist on alt-country delivers haunting harmonies, rambunctious twang, and wry lyrics–the perfect backdrop for your next tussle in the hay.
