Thanks to everyone who came to see Two Apple Tobacco LIVE Sunday night at The Penthouse! We rocked the place for a third time and had an incredible show.
It was pouring rain outside, but inside we steamed the place up with our most exciting Sunday Spectacular yet. We opened with one of our Zappa favs Flakes, and capped things off with a blistering 15-minute version of our latest tune Wealth Ain’t Money.
Thanks to Special Guests Malleus Trio and Brandon Burke for their extraordinary sets, Gwyn, Kay, Will, Courtney, Spencer, and of course Jon an Alex for their hilarious bring-the-walls-down Dylan and Bowie impersonations…
Check out some Photos, and

First off, a huge thanks to everyone who came out to see TAT at Nyala! By the time we hit the stage last Friday, there wasn’t a seat left in the place – but don’t be too bummed if you missed it…
TAT returns to the stage this Sunday, May 2nd at The Penthouse (1019 Seymour) for our THIRD Two Apple Sunday Spectacular!
The evening will be our most exciting and eclectic yet, featuring special guests Malleus Trio and Brandon Burke, new TAT material, prizes, surprises, a David Bowie sing-a-like contest (it’s no game!) – and more. The tunes’ll be sweet, beer is on special and pole-or-no we’ll be turning on the funky light gizmos!
Doors at 7:30 pm. Show at 8 pm

That’s right! We’ve just uploaded 12 new tracks from our holiday concert at the Penthouse in December 2009!
Also – Thanks to all of you who came to see Two Apple Tobacco perform live on January 9th as part of ‘Purple Crab goes Megagenta for Fushian’ – the place was PACKED and the audience was fantastic.
Thanks to A Wake Human for inviting us to perform (and of course for their delightful insanity), and to Evan Symons and The Stolen Organ Family Band for their awesome, high-energy and creative performances. The evening was a blast!

Last night, Two Apple Tobacco rocked The Penthouse for the second time in two months! We had an awesome holiday concert, featuring wonderfully executed versions of our favourite originals, and a host of exciting new covers – Frank Zappa’s I’m The Slime, David Bowie’s Up The Hill Backwards and Tom Waits’ Christmas Card from a Hooker in Minneapolis.
In the spirit of the ‘holiday season’ we played a wall-shaking version of The Pogues’ Fairytale of New York and a funkified Hanukkah classic that we had to play twice because people wouldn’t stop dancing.
Our audience also enjoyed the crazy and completely distinct stylings of Flags (featuring lampshade hat) and A-Slam (English-Punjabi Hip Hop with DJ and live drummer). Three lucky audience members went home with door prizes! (Congratulations!)
We dedicated our set to the Climate Change summit in Copenhagen, and to continuing efforts to solve our global crisis. The audience was wonderfully supportive and involved, shouting out ideas and talking with us afterwards about their personal initiatives.
Thanks to Gwyn, Jay, Quinten, Courtney, Jon, Flags, A-Slam and everyone who came out to see Two Apple Tobacco!
Happy Holidays! See you at the next show…

Thanks to Gwyn, Eddie, Waiting for Sunday and everyone who helped make the evening possible. And most of all, thanks to everyone who came out to see Two Apple Tobacco!
See you at the next show!
