Tommy Tallarico talking in Toronto!
That title is an alliteration win if I’ve ever seen one. So I’ve seen Video Games Live three times now, but ironically, none of those times have actually been in the city where I live. So I figured that I’d head down to one of the best live shows I’ve ever seen at Massey Hall [...]
Juno Awards Liveblog
And that’s all she wrote folks! We took to Toronto, and a very high seat at its Air Canada Centre, to report from the 40th Annual Juno Awards! My closing thoughts: Drake did an incredible job. He had about the same success as Russell Peters (the first time around, anyways), but he did it with [...]
Wax Records Showcase
Jesse Labelle. Emily Osment. Both of those names have been on Eggplante a couple of times each. Now, you can add Alyssa Reid to the list. Known for her song Alone Again, she joined Jesse and Emily on stage at a Wax Records showcase for Canadian Music Week in Toronto last week. I want to [...]
Canadian Music Week 2011
It’s the first ever event Eggplante attended (even before this site was in existence, actually!), and we’re about to heading into our third week on the Canadian Music Week circuit! We’ve been graced by performances from Lights, The Midway State, The Artist Life, Stereos, and seen countless more stars. Hedley, Karl Wolf, Girlicious, and Daughtry [...]
Uncontrollable by Stereos
Stereos were the Summer Girl hitmakers of 2009, and they returned in 2010 with their latest album, Uncontrollable. A bit more dance, a bit less refined (but in the best way possible), this album still has that DNA of any hit Stereos song. In our playlist, we’ve got the original Stereos album back to back, [...]

Emily Osment’s Fight or Flight
Her first studio full-length album is what I’d call a techno-mix of LIGHTS, Metric, and Shania Twain. She started as an actress, gracefully moved into the music space, and as of tomorrow, will be launching Fight or Flight in the USA. The album has been in Canada for a week now – a tribute to [...]
MMVA 2010
There is no bigger event in the Canadian Music Landscape when it comes to pop stars, live shows, and audience participation. This is the 2010 Much Music Video Awards. And the show this year was big. How big? Well, as if Miley Cyrus and Justin Bieber wasn’t enough, how about Ke$ha and Hedley? No? Hmmm, [...]
WINNER!
A few weeks ago, I threw up a Twitter contest in which people who followed Eggplante had the chance to win some awesome prizes. If you’re anything of a pop music fan, you’d probably be pretty thrilled about this bunch. I’m talking Autographed STEREOS, The Midway State, and The Artist Life CDs to one lucky [...]
The next few…
We’re getting closer and closer to two huge events: the first, which you’ve all heard about rambled on here many times before, but also Eggplante’s 1st Birthday! To celebrate, well, we’re not doing anything special really, except for a SUPER HUGE EXTRAVAGANZA! Okay, but seriously, no we’re not doing anything. I thought this post would [...]
