SUMMARY:Joel Plaskett at The Temple Ballroom
LOCATION:Meteor
DESCRIPTION:Joel Plaskett at The Temple Ballroom Friday Oct 23rd / 7pm doo
 rs / 8pm show / $50 \nSupport from Alexander Gallant This is a seated ev
 ent (first come\, first served) \nBrought to you by Luxworks and Happy Li
 ttle Crowd Productions\n \nJoel Plaskett - 30+ years on records and the r
 oad\, still restless & rolling onFor over three decades\, Joel Plaskett ha
 s proven himself a spinning wheel of reinvention. The Nova Scotia songwrit
 er's eclectic body of work reveals a restless and playful spirit\, always 
 transforming and expanding.While continuing to celebrate -- and be celebra
 ted for -- his regional ties and embrace of East Coast musical traditions\
 , Joel’s omnivorous appetite for new sonic horizons is an integral part 
 of his work. His discography includes heavy riff epics\, like Thrush Hermi
 t's now-classic swansong Clayton Park (1999)\; low-fi and wide eyed solo r
 ecords like In Need of Medical Attention (1999) and La De Da (2005)\; lean
 \, loose and lyrical rock and roll with the Emergency on Down at the Khybe
 r (2001) and Truthfully\, Truthfully (2003)\; and a father-and-son nod to 
 English folk traditions with Solidarity (2017). Then there are the endeavo
 urs that push the envelope further: the Emergency’s romantic epic concep
 t album Ashtray Rock (2007)\; the months-long songwriting challenge Scrapp
 y Happiness (2012)\; and Three (2009) and 44 (2020)\, Joel’s sprawling\,
  multi-record ventures exploring love\, loss\, and existential investigati
 on. For his latest release\, the 4-track project One Real Reveal (2024)\, 
 Plaskett strips his songwriting down to its raw materials\, allowing every
 thing in—all the human touches the tape could pick up—and letting (alm
 ost) everything out. Coast-to-coast and the world 'round\, Joel has rocked
  crowds at clubs\, festivals and grand old theatres with longtime Emergenc
 y bandmates Dave Marsh and Chris Pennell as well as drawn audiences close 
 with intimate acoustic shows\, both solo and with his father\, Bill. Then 
 there are the special events that have really allowed Joel to reach the ra
 fters\, like headlining Toronto’s Massey Hall with everyone in tow\, pla
 ying the NAC in Ottawa backed by the national orchestra\, and warming up h
 uge stages for artists like The Tragically Hip and Paul McCartney.Joel and
  the Emergency have also been roundly celebrated within the music industry
  for their work\, racking up awards and nominations from the JUNOs\, the P
 olaris Music Prize\, the East Coast Music Awards\, Music Nova Scotia\, and
  numerous others. While Joel’s songs are beloved far beyond the communit
 y that helped forge his sound\, his creative heart is still found at home 
 in Nova Scotia. At 45 Portland Street in Dartmouth there’s Fang Recordin
 g\, the studio where he’s made many of his albums and produced records f
 or other great artists like Mo Kenney\, Steve Poltz\, Shotgun Jimmie and J
 immy Rankin. And through the door to the front of the building lies Taz Re
 cords\, Morley's Coffee and Friction Books. Since 2023\, Joel has used the
  space to present Window Inn Wednesdays\, a monthly\, no-phones-allowed va
 riety show that pushes back—like most of his projects—against the spee
 d and din of modern life\, making space for real engagement between art\, 
 artist\, and audience.\n \n\nAlexander Gallant\nAlexander Gallant is a fo
 lk singer-songwriter based in Halifax\, Nova Scotia. As a one-of-one perfo
 rmer\, his lush fingerpicking\, refreshingly original poetry\, and unpredi
 ctable yet delightfully sardonic stage banter has earned him his reputatio
 n as one of the best storytellers from the Atlantic provinces. “Your fav
 ourite songwriter's favourite songwriter”\, Gallant is adept at that old
  showbusiness trick - make them laugh and make them cry. Gallant's unique 
 perspective has cemented him as one of the most original voices in folk si
 nger-songwriting in decades. Always a gleeful discovery to the uninitiated
 \, Alexander is often seen perking up the shoulders of an audience\, and w
 inning over any room. From front parlours and folk clubs to theaters and c
 elebrity secret societies\, Alexander Gallant has delighted audiences all 
 around eastern and central Canada.\nAs a part of the growing artists hub a
 nd gathering space at 45 Portland St in Dartmouth\, Alexander has gained n
 otoriety supporting and working with Joel Plaskett on his secret Window In
 n performances\, frequently performing to sold out crowds alongside many n
 otable musicians such as Charlotte Cornfield\, Mo Kenney\, Jenn Grant\, Ro
 se Cousins\, Kim Harris\, Stuart Legere\, and more.\n \n\nBoletos: https:
