Calgary indie rock band The Ashley Hundred are always an entertaining act to see, so it was great to see them back at the Slice, Saturday, March 10.
They played appealing ambient indie rock with banjo and keyboards adding extra layers of sound. I only caught the very end of their set of music drenched in delay and chorus laden guitars plus ghostly vocals. Though they added a few interesting harmonized guitar.
They had approximately 50 -60 people listening.
Fellow Calgarians Crooked Spies almost stole the show.
They played straight ahead rock and roll with big riffs, an even bigger beat and vocals reminiscent of Bachman Turner Overdrive with a touch of ”90s alternative rock. So they sounded like a mix of BTO meeting Spacehog.
The Utilities played another strong set of music mostly from their new CD.
