The Blue Stones brought their North America Metro tour to Winnipeg on May 29, with support from The Darcys. The Ontario-based duo of Tarek Jafar and Justin Tessie left The Park Theatre with a distinct taste of indie-rock and a night to remember. With their first show being sold out, they had added a second Winnipeg show the day before.

Before the show started, the duo brought one VIP ticket holder cake as special gesture. That commitment and closeness sums up why The Blue Stones is going places.

First, The Darcys took the stage opening with “Dreaming.” The Toronto/ LA duo did a phenomenal performance. Vocalist Jason Couse kept the crowd locked in, entertaining the crowd and making them laugh. The fans responded by changing his name “Couse” to “Booooos” as a joke! Still, songs like “1986,” and “Talking” took the spotlight.

Then it was time for the main event, The Blue Stones. Before they hit the stage, they played “Metro 47” and as soon as it ended they played “Your Master.” The smooth transition was seamless, very similar to listening to the album. Some of the songs from Metro instantly hit it off to the crowd such as “Come Apart,” “Happy Cry.” Obviously, the set leaned hard on newer tracks, but for the encore they performed some of their OG songs like “Black Holes,” “Let it Ride,” and “Don’t Miss.”

Before the show, they brought one VIP ticket holder cake as special gesture. That commitment and closeness sums up why this duo is going places.

The Metro album now stands as one of their greatest releases. The sold-out show is proof of how hard they’ve worked to connect with fans. Catch them live if you want to experience a Canadian indie-rock duo.
