I’ve been a Treelines fan for awhile now. Even before we met properly, before we played shows and hung out in Vancouver and Victoria, before were in the Peak Performance Project together. I’ve seen them play many times, and they even played at our most recent album release show at Sugar Nightclub in Victoria last month on September 10th, and I gotta say, thursday night at The Red Room in Vancouver, Peak Performance Project showcase #4, featuring all great bands, “The Matinee,” “Redgy Blackout,” “Behind Sapphire,” all bands I love to death and would play a show with any day, “Treelines” shone so bright, I couldn’t even believe it.

What a perfect night! This year, our 4th year in a row playing the Rifflandia Festival, a festival that has grown tremendously with the creativity, time and effort put into it, we played a show to an amazing crowd on September 24th, a Saturday night in Victoria at The Events Center, a MusicBC showcase with heartthrobs “The Belle Game,” “Beekeeper” and “Young Liars.” It was finally Autumn, it was exciting, the room was full of our friends and fans, the sound was excellent, Jeff had strep-throat, Dan had been recently shaved, all good things. A wonderful night, followed by two nights of great acts, Redbird, Library Voices, Braids, Vince Vaccaro, Jets Overhead, Broken Social Scene to name a few, and really, just some solid times with people we love.
