SUMMARY:Hannah Vig Album Release Show
DESCRIPTION:Join Hannah Vig\, Salmon Ella\, and Dark Room to celebrate the release of Hannah Vig’s debut album “What a Way to Pass the Time”. Semi formal dress code encouraged! \n\n\n\nSince her onstage debut in 2022\, Hannah Vig has been making waves in Ottawa’s music scene. Releasing a debut single and E.P. in 2023 and winning OMIC’s Capital Music Award for Newcomer of the Year in 2024\, Vig has made a name for herself as Ottawa’s sensitive\, sapphic\, singer-songwriter. Originally known for intimate and emotive acoustic performances\, Vig has been joined by a backing band since August 2023. Bringing her rock influences to the fore\, Vig’s soulful voice soars on songs evoking the likes of Boygenius and Olivia Rodrigo. Currently consisting of Eric Montpool (lead guitar)\, Matthew Scharfe (bass)\, and Brendan Vandepol (drums)\, the band adds an exciting energy to her already dynamic sound and hard-hitting lyrics. \n\n\n\nSalmon Ella is a result of the 2017 Girls+ Rock Ottawa’s Rock Camp for Women+. Since that June weekend\, Cynthia\, Delta\, Hannah\, and Katie have been writing music with quirky melodies and uncomfortably honest lyrics to get to the heart of their experiences. Influenced by Warpaint\, Bikini Kill\, Courtney Barnett\, and Fiona Apple\, they played their first show in October 2018 and are quickly making a mark on the Ottawa music scene. Sometimes absurd\, sometimes ethereal\, their music will have you saying “I don’t know what I just listened to\, but I think I liked it!”. \n\n\n\nDark Room is a 3-piece indie/alternative rock band with Middle Eastern and North African roots. Recently formed in Ottawa\, the band features Alya on lead vocals\, Raph on guitar\, and Zanou on drums. With each member bringing their style to the mix\, they take inspiration from artists like Arctic Monkeys\, Towa Bird\, and Briston Maroney. Blending their distinct feelings and experiences\, Dark Room is quickly developing their craft and unique sound. \n\n\n\nOnline + Door Price: $15 adv plus HST\, $20 @ door Doors: 7:00 Show: 8:00

SUMMARY:TVOD\, CDSM & KAY-fayb
DESCRIPTION:First Crush and Side By Side Weekend present…\n\n\n\nTVOD (Brooklyn\, NY) \n\n\n\nBrooklyn-based rockers TVOD stand out with emotional\, sometimes juvenile lyrics\, paired with driving\, catchy songs that never fail to get a crowd moving/moshing. Influenced by post-punk\, egg punk and krautrock\, TVOD effortlessly weave musical genres in a way that comes off seamlessly. “More than anything\, their sound is engineered to make you move” (Creem Magazine). The brainchild of singer-songwriter Tyler Wright\, the project draws from personal and external inspirations like the nightlife/music scene\, heartaches\, World War II\, the untimely death of a beloved pet fish\, and so on. TVOD’s vivid storytelling paints a gritty tongue-in-cheek picture of being a D.I.Y. artist grinding it out in NYC\, complete with fabled tales about the degenerate lifestyle and all the good and the bad that comes with it. \n\n\n\nCDSM (Atlanta\, GA) \n\n\n\nCSDM a.k.a. Celebrity Death Slot Machine is a “freakout post-punk group” (FLOOD Magazine) based in Atlanta\, GA. Their stylish sonic onslaught is anchored around dancey rhythms\, atypical synthesizer work\, timely saxophone growls\, as well as goth rock-esque melodies that serve to recount bizarre humor-laden tales from a derelict parallel universe. The death disco purveyors – featuring past and current members from Material Girls\, Neighbor Lady\, Mothers and Rose Hotel – are to unearth their debut full-length album entitled Convertible Hearse on May 23rd\, 2025 via Mothland & EXAG’ Records. \n\n\n\nKAY-fayb (Gatineau\, Quebec) \n\n\n\nKAY-fayb is sound art trio Yolande Laroche\, Pierre-Luc Clément and Linsey Wellman – exploring while engaging with the performative limits and/or/without potential of orchestral dissonance\, deceptiveness\, technologies\, mantras and evasive concepts such as obsessions and make beliefs through structured improvised performances.  \n\n\n\nEvent Information \n\n\n\nJuly 6th\, 2025 \n\n\n\nHouse of Targ – 1077 Bank Street\, Ottawa ON  \n\n\n\nDoors at 8:00pm | 19+   \n\n\n\n$20 advance / $25 at the door  \n\n\n\nFirst Crush Safer Spaces Policy\n\n\n\nAttendees\, artists and staff are expected to respect one another and the space. Zero tolerance for any form of violence\, aggression\, oppressive behaviour & language\, or bullying. If you are currently implicated in an accountability process\, please ensure you are respecting the well-being of others. \n\n\n\nFree masks and hand sanitizer will be available at the door. Ticket refunds can be issued due to illness. \n\n\n\nHouse of Targ Accessibility  \n\n\n\nUnfortunately\, House of Targ is not accessible for everyone. The venue is located in a basement with a steep staircase\, and its bathrooms are too small to accommodate most wheelchairs.
