John Travoltron have released their debut EP, a 3 song compilation entitled Quarantine Sessions 2020.
All three songs were written and recorded in isolation during 2020. There’s also a third music video for the song Tentin Quarantino which can be seen on the band’s youtube channel.
Sadly bc magazine has learned that local music legend Davie Colquhoun unexpectedly passed away on New Years Day.
Davie was a long time stalwart of the local music scene performing both in bands, including Soul Commotion, Hattrick, and his famed solo acoustic sessions.
While many of you might remember Davie for his musical covers, he was also a talented songwriter releasing several solo albums including Strapped and Short and Sweet.
Davie your smile and smokey vocals entertained so many of us over the years in good times and bad, thank you!
