    Just a reminder that the Starling Effect will be live on the air on Co-op Radio on Saturday, September 13.

  • The Starling Effect on Unsigned BC

    I’m pretty excited that my band, the Starling Effect, will be on the Unsigned BC radio program, which airs on Saturday (September 13) at 4 pm on Vancouver Co-op Radio (CFRO-FM 100.5 for local listeners, but you can also listen live on the Co-op Radio website). Because we will be there to promote our September 19 show…

  • Come see my band play live on September 19

    I already noted in my last blog post that my band has new music out soon. Well, it’s my blog and I can mention it as many times as I want! Come see the Starling Effect play live on September 19 at LanaLou’s in Vancouver.

  • My band has a new single out in September

    We are super excited about the fact that we have a new single, featuring the songs “Pile of Ash” and “Memory Palace”, coming out on September 19 via our label, Submerged Records.

  • The starling effect live at the Fox Cabaret

    Those outside of Vancouver may not know the history of the Fox, which started as an adult cinema in 1983. This was long after the so-called “Golden Age of Porn” and right around the start of the VHS era, which seems like an inauspicious time to open such an establishment.

  • Am I posting about my band again? Why, yes. Yes, I am

    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…

  • New music from the starling effect

    This week my band celebrates the release of a new two-song single, featuring the tracks “A Strange Habit of Disappearing” and “Blueskiesgrey”. We would appreciate it if you would give the new tunes a listen. And if you happen to live in a city with a college radio station, please request the Starling Effect. We…

  • the starling effect rides again
