I'm working with the boys at http://low-life.ca/ to put on an event here in Toronto. On Wednesday November 9th we're bringing in electronic and hiphop heavyweight JonWayne to do a show at Rainbow Palace in Kensington. Here's a write up about JonWayne and a link to the Facebook event! If you're into it, I look forward to seeing you there and make sure you find me and say hi.

Down the Alley, between Rosa's Bakery and the Fish & Chips place, a nefarious congregation is taking place. We at LOW-LIFE.CA have been cooking up something truly delicious for those of you in the Toronto vicinity.
So Cal native Jonwayne is an integral member of the LA beat scene's second generation whose music has been bouncing between the walls of Low End Theory for months.
Originally involved in the local underground music community as a spoken word artist and rapper, Jonwayne soon found himself at the Airliner on Wednesday evening for Low End Theory. After experiencing a mind-blowing night at the club, the young artist discovered new creative inspiration and started making music. A tape of his raw, sticky and blunted beats made their way into the hands of Daddy Kev, and soon Jonwayne's debut full-length album Bowser was born.
After playing along side mavericks Shlohmo, The Gaslamp Killer, Flying Lotus, and other members of the Brainfeeder label and the Wedidit collective, he finds himself on his first ever Canadian visit as he travels the Eastern seaboard promoting his latest release, Death To Andrew.
