Music Monday: Carmen Townsend, Red Cedar, West Coast Pop!
bySince I profiled In Medias Res last week I have received wonderful leads and information about some upcoming shows to check out around Vancouver. This has prompted a return of my shamefully underused ‘Music Monday‘ series.
Carmen Townsend
Fresh off her Australian tour and prior to returning home to the East Coast, Carmen will be playing a free showcase at The Railway Club tomorrow, January 11th, 2011 from 7:00pm until 8:00pm. Her forthcoming album Waitin’ and Seein’ will be available January 25th, 2011.

West Coast Pop!
