This past weekend marks ONE YEAR since the big reunion weekender was supposed to go down! While we’ve lost a lot in the last year, we’re here to assure you there’s still plenty to look forward to. 1/2

Ultra rare feel the bern pressing of the jerk chicken ep... #supportlocalmusic #winnipegmusic #mittens

What kind of world do you want to live in? It's time for the music and arts community to step up and do what's right. We can't let fear win. #solidarity #winnipeg #treatyone #blacklivesmatter #TakeAStand #IndigenousLivesMatter

Today was supposed to be our day. We have a few surprises until we can solidify a new reunion date. We can’t wait to have our night together. Our sweaty exchange of energy. Our bond over the love of all that is reggae, soul, ska & rock’n’roll. Until then, say safe and healthy.

Stay home. It doesn’t matter that the weekend’s almost here - if you choose to gather in groups or hang out with your friends, you’re putting yourself, those around you, and our health care workers at risk. So take this seriously. Do the right thing and stay home this weekend.

Darryl from SubCity with a little taste of The End of the Bottle. We'll see you all real soon for a night of music and dancing. We can't wait!

Thanks Sam! Witchpolice Radio has been an adamant supporter of local music since day one and we appreciate everything you do for our scene.

Man, this live @SubCity204 record is so good. I dig their studio albums too, but they were (are, I guess, now that they're reuniting) always a must-see live band.

Shoutout to those guys. It's a classic.

[SubCity Dwellers 2020 @SubCity204]

It’s with a heavy heart that we postpone our reunion gigs. But it’s necessary to do our part in our city’s public health & safety.
Rest assured, we WILL share a beautiful night of sweaty reggae, soul, ska & rock’n’roll!
Til then, let’s look out for each other.

Things are changing quickly. Be well and take care of each other. Together we will get through this. #OneWorld

Sure felt good to be back in the studio this week... @UMFM #winnipeg #winnipegmusic #localmusic #liverecording #liveoffthefloor

Imagine some people from impoverished or war torn countries have only ever know this level of panic. How humbling to be reminded we are all just guests here. Take care of each other out there.❤️

Feeling for my boot-strappin', touring musician homies at this time.

So much work goes into planning and preparation, I hope things normalize quickly, because the world needs your art.

#3 - Camping
We were always a camping band. Connect with nature, save a few bucks and get away from the city hustle. These times really broke up the monotony of touring and brought the - then octet - a lot closer....and dirtier. dirt under your fingernails, smelling of campfire!

[SubCity Dwellers 2020 @SubCity204]

#2 - Ah. Our sister city of Edmonton, Alberta. We made lifelong friends in the Operators, Our Mercury, 40 Thieves, The Falklands... We played (the old) New City before it shut down. Then (the new) New City before it shut down and many others. Love you, E-town.

#1 - Kmac's Black Eye
We decided to capture our image on film for the very first time. Kevin rolls up with the cherry on top - a freshly awarded black-eye from a mugging near Osborne St. the night before. Thank you, random thug of the Village.
