This new addition to our brand is a column dedicated to the night life (and some days) in the great city of Toronto, featuring live event photos. Tracey Savein brings an incredible eye (of the lens) capturing special moments in time. Because as the saying goes – A picture is worth a thousand words.

Any kind of photography, as I see it, is all about capturing motion and emotion. Whether the subject is raucous and rockin’ or the location is silent and still, if you can transport the viewer into a moment in time with an image and relay the energy of that moment, well, there’s your photograph – Tracey Savein

Tyler Ellis

Toronto singer-songwriter Tyler Ellis is one of the unsung heroes of folk-roots music on the scene, but his peculiar poetry brilliantly shines in this apropos LIVE album GREATER-THAN, recorded at the ever-popular, intimate Free Times Café in downtown Toronto. Ellis’ seventh album to date, Greater-Than – dedicated to his father who passed away in December of last year – is set to be released at a concert on June 21st at the New Hugh’s Room Live, 296 Broadview Ave., Toronto, ON.

With opening sets by two of Toronto’s most prolific and dynamic singer-songwriters, Lynn Harrison, Noah Zacharin, and a special performance from Tranzitionz Jazz, the doors are open at 7:00 pm and the music starts at 8:00 pm. Tickets are $30 Advance + Tax & Fees at www.Hughsroomlive.com.

Tyler Ellis's Greater-Than album offers a portrait of a near-perfect folksinger (he admits, in song, to being a “John Prine wannabe”) doing what he does best: a lone man with an acoustic guitar, leading singalongs and relentlessly charming a full house of fans, with his expert songcraft and a fine sense of humour, live onstage at Toronto's renowned Free Times Cafe.
