I would like to issue a big thank you to the organizers of this event – their diligence and persistence ensures that those lucky enough to know about these nights can share in this ideal communal experience. Urban spaces, electric guitars, torches, and violins combine to form an event that is as beautiful on a whole as any one performance or band. This may very well be one of the best parts of Toronto - or rather - the fact that events like this happen.

As a monthly event, No Face continues to surprise me with its dynamic locations. Hosted in unassuming spots around Toronto, this event has taken me from an evening at the train tracks to a early morning swim at a local pool. The location isn’t even the best part though – it’s the entire vibe of a grassroots poetry and performance event. The readings range in discipline and content, but are always a pleasure to witness. To find out about the next one, do yourself a favour and dig a bit.
