STARS & MUSCLES 10 MIXXY

Dudes & dudettes, we are back once again, on March 26th, and as always, we are super stoked to bring you another night where we get to jam hard to our favorite party in town with our favorite peoples. It's been a crazy year so far. Lately, we've been busy doing the damn thing from constantly being on the road touring to spending many hours in the studio making the perfect tune (Stars & Muscles EP. coming soon), so there are lots of exciting things to get aroused about, and of course you're all part of it.

In the meantime, Let's celebrate episode 10. Stars & Muscles jammy jam is a fun party, you better ask somebody! We deliver nothing but the goods right where it counts and by that we mean the real schitt, no gimmicks - strictly gems from boogie-funk, disco, house and all the classics, new & old. We don't have to explain this all the time, just come, bring your hormones & a good crew and come dance with a cutie or two. Fuck a TigerBlood, we got that Williams Blood.

Come before 11pm or a meet and greet with our pal, The Joker. Can't wait to see you again. Let's Get Gooey! B.Y.O.S.**
**Bring Your Own Sweat

Sammy Bananas - Move Your Body

Our great buddy Sam has just released his first original track on Fool's Gold Records and it's so good. He asked us to do a Smalltown Romeo remix which is cool - and there are also remixes by Cassian and Toy Selectah. The Cassian mix is great. Anyways - check out the release and support great independent music.

Jackie Shane

The CBC Radio's Inside the Music aired this great feature documentary on the underrated R&B legend, Jackie Shane. Although he was American born, he made a notable contribution to the 1960’s Canadian music scene. Aside from being a seriously talented performer, Jackie attracted attention for his cross-dressing, openly gay ways.

This doc sheds some light on the otherwise very mysterious figure (he doesn’t even have a Wikipedia page!) There are still many unknowns about what happened to Jackie in the end, but he left behind some sick tunes.

Here is the only known footage of Jackie, singing Rufus Thomas’ Walking the Dog.

I Got Mine: The story of Jackie Shane Produced & narrated by Elaine Banks (via the CBC).
