OH NO! YOKO! Pau Pau pt 2

We effed up and labelled Oh No Yoko’s new song incorrectly. argh. It was late (4am). I was last minute packing / leaving for Calgary / Sled Island. SORRY.
Here is a brand new song from Pau Pau, GO ALIEN (not Alien Womb, although that does have a nice ring to it) + an interview with the gents. Purchase / listen to Pau Pau here.
1)what do fans need to know about oh no yoko?
That we are touring this summer with Teen Daze to Edmonton and back starting July 1st (at the Cobalt)!
2) what inspired the name?
Liam was watching a documentary on John Lennon and she came up. Basically nothing.
3) yoko ono is a controversial figure in muisc history because she broke up a brotherhood. what kind of woman would it take to cause you guys to fight with each other?
We all had a crush on our friend’s mother when we were ten. We all slept in her suede bed. None of us ended up with her. Maybe her, she could do the trick.
3) how did you come together?
We met in kindergarden and showed each other our butt holes.
4) you guys are from Abby and do a lot of gigs in Vancouver. that can be quite a ride. what do you do to pass the time when you drive together?
We have like 3 mix cds that we made years ago and we just cycle between those. They consist of Don Henley and Punk Rock 101.
5) you guys have played with a lot of other local bands. which older band member from the scene do you admire and why?
You Say Party come from our town and we got to play a show with them before they split and now thankfully we are good friends with Stephen and Becky and they give great advice.

June 29th @ The Waldorf
Pat Jordache is coming all the way over from Montreal. His latest album has just been rereleased. The original version was one of the best Canadian albums of last year and in Winnie’s own words, they might be one of Canada’s best kept secrets.
Pat Jordache – Get It (I Know You’re Going To)
Slam Dunk is Western Canada’s best kept secret and their album THE SHIVERS is one of the best Canadian records from last year. They are still giving it away for free so sniff that out here.
My Friend Wallis. Do you like reverb drenched tropical pop. Of course you do.

July 1st we are doing a MEGA show because we wanted to see how many chill bros we can fit into one place at a time.
Our sweet little darlings, have just graduated high school and it’s summer break. Their brand new EP Pau Pau (pron: paw paw) comes out tomorrow. Look at their silly promo video. It’s so silly just like you, how can you not want to hear it RIGHT now? ugh, can’t wait.
Playing with them the mighty Humans who have a brand new set they just debuted at their much talked about Music Waste show and NXNE this past week.
TEEN DAZE. Playing new material from his upcoming recordddddd.
This is my favourite TEEN DAZE SONG
Teen Daze – Let’s Fall Asleep Together
Kingdom Cloud have been on my radar for a “long ass time”. We have been exchanging flirtatious emails but it took seeing them at Music Waste to realize how rad these guys are. They will literally make you feel euphoric with how energetic and excited they are playing their indie pop songs in matching outfits.

Oh No! Yoko+Teen Daze+Young Liars=PICZ
Hey folks, I busted my neck so the photos are a tad latez. Sooooo lemme remind you of how much fun we had 2 weeks ago! The small but mighty band, Oh No! Yoko kicked the night off followed by Teen Daze who, after getting a great review on pitchfork, just got a new bass player and recently left for their mini tour around western Canada. And last but definitely not least to light up the stage, is Young Liars, with their psychedelic light show and light up mirror masks, seeing this band live is not for the faint of heart, or epileptics.
