It’s been a relatively quiet start to the New Year for the Starling Effect, but we’re gearing up for a couple of shows that I want to tell you about. Because it’s exciting. For me. (Your mileage may vary.)

On March 21, we return to our old stomping grounds, the Princeton Pub, for a gig with China Syndrome and Moonfoil. There’s no cover charge for this one.

Then, on April 18, we hit the stage at Green Auto for the very first time to support Abel Collective, who will be doing so for the last time. (It’s their farewell show.) Rounding out the bill is the Cold Lake, which features former members of long-time local faves Perfume Tree and Veloce.

Seriously, Perfume Tree is legendary. I was listening to their ground-breaking mix of dream-pop and trip-hop in high school, I kid you not!

Tickets for the Green Auto show are available via Eventbrite.

Both of these shows are happening in Vancouver, in case that’s not obvious.

Also: I recently answered some questions for Support the Scene, and I really hope I didn’t come off sounding too obnoxious, but you be the judge.
