Though local noisemakers METZ just played a hometown show this past weekend headlining the Saturday night edition of Do West Fest, this evening finds singer and guitarist Alex Edkins returning to the Toronto stage in his other guise as frontman for Weird Nightmare.

With their recently released self-titled debut album, Weird Nightmare takes a more melodic approach than Edkins’ main gig, with a sound that hearkens back to ’90s indie rock. Check out the video for “Lusitania” below.

Irish quintet Just Mustard released their latest album Heart Under late last month. On that album, the band offers up an intriguing mix of noisy post-punk and shoegaze influenced sounds behind singer Katie Ball’s soothing yet also somewhat haunting vocals.

“Mirrors” is the latest single off of the album. Check it out below.

Earlier this year Punch Brothers released Hell on Church Street, their track by track re-imagining of iconic bluegrass guitarist Tony Rice’s 1983 album Church Street Blues. The album serves as a fitting tribute to the late Rice, whose pioneering style and willingness to incorporate influences from other genres into bluegrass has clearly been a great influence on Punch Brothers.
