Coffee

Arkells — Thu, 28 Mar 2013 21:33:22 +0000

Before we hit the old dusty trail to begin our European tour, we are very happy to share with you our newly finished “Coffee” music video. Shot in Hamilton, ON, last Christmas, this video features not only the chips off the ole’ blocks, but the old blocks themselves. This was our fathers’ first time shooting a music video, and our directors Dave Dunham and Karl Dilpelino, did a great job capturing the senior members of the Arkells family. We had a great time spending the day shooting with our dads, and we all feel that John DeAngelis should be up for plenty of MTV Video Music Awards come June.

Hip Tour Week 1

Arkells — Fri, 25 Jan 2013 22:02:08 +0000

January 25th. Regina Saskatchewan. -20 degrees Celsius, and the Tragically Hip. We are currently in the midst of the quintessential Canadian Winter rock n’ roll experience and couldn’t be happier to be a part of it. Today marks the end of our first week of dates opening for the Tragically Hip. The shows included our first ever trip to Cranbrook BC, our long awaited (at least by us) return to Red Deer, (our first visit since the week Jackson Square was released in 2008), and our first time playing in an NHL arena, Edmonton’s Rexall Place. Personally, I don’t know what the people of Edmonton have been complaining about, seems like a pretty cool rink to me, and they do have one thing that Copps Coliseum doesn’t….

Despite a busy week, we have had the opportunity to have some non-rock related fun as well. This afternoon, Max and Mike went to the MacKenzie Art Gallery in Regina, and last Friday we had a family dinner at the Keg for Tim’s birthday. I know it sounds crazy (assuming you’re not vegetarian), but our sound engineer Chris has never been. Don’t get too mad at him, it’s because he’s an Americano. Next, we plan on introducing him to Swiss Chalet, another of Canada’s corporate culinary delights. This week, we brave the cold, stay the course, and head due east to play shows in the Winnipeg, Brandon, Thunder Bay, Moncton and Halifax. Hope to see some of you at the shows. More updates soon.

Stay warm,
Nick
