Strange Brood – Fresh Cream 60th Anniversary Celebration

Strange Brood – Fresh Cream 60th Anniversary Celebration Live in the Green Sanderson Hall at Hugh's Room, 296 Broadview AvenueShow at 8pm, Doors at 7pm$30+ in advance, $37+at the door Featuring a psychedelic light show by The Liquid Crystal Display Released in December 1966, Cream’s debut album Fresh Cream was a startling collision of blues, psychedelia and virtuosity from a trio whose musical chemistry proved as short-lived as it was explosive. Chris Norman , James Scott and Scott Hannigan are longtime fixtures of Toronto’s underground psychedelic rock scene who have honed their craft in a variety of bands around the city’s club circuit. Strange Brood is their beloved occasional side project, paying tribute to the world’s greatest power trio with a mixture of authenticity and playfulness that will delight both casual and hardcore fans . James and Scott are a fluid, formidable rhythm section with remarkable backing vocal prowess, allowing Chris to take flight with his guitar virtuosity and uncanny vocal resemblance to Jack Bruce . The evening will feature Fresh Cream performed front to back, followed by other choice Cream favourites, and because this music deserves more than tasteful stage lighting, The Liquid Crystal Display will be on hand with a full psychedelic light show. So dig out your paisley bell bottoms, loosen your grip on reality by whatever legal means you deem appropriate, and come spend an evening somewhere between 1966 and outer space. Wednesday December 2.
