Photos and Videos: Solo Night at The Smiling Buddha, April 13th

On april 13th, the Smiling Buddha hosted a solo, mostly acoustic night. After Gunk performed sad spoken word accompanied by his guitar, Organ Thieves member Chuck Coles mesmerized the audience with several original songs, as well as a cover of Sorrow by Bad Religion that left those listening with chills.

Drew Thomson of Single Mothers closed out the night- though before playing music, he started by reading two short stories he’s written in zines about a summer spent with family in Swastika, Ontario (yes, as he grimly assured us, there is unfortunately still a place of that name).

Below the cut are some photos and (shaky) videos from the night.
