Winnipeg playas Ultra Mega like it raw


Nothing terribly exciting planned for Canada Day? Why not head over to Mitzi's Sister (1554 Queen West) where Winnipeg knuckleheads Ultra Mega will be headlining a celebratory triple bill with Toys Are Just and Sunbear starting at 10 pm.
If you've heard about Ultra Mega before and can't recall where or why, it's probably in connection with their indie-rock revisions of Wu Tang Clan classics issued on their limited-run Black Wu Jackets release. The video clip of their radical waltz-time reworking of ODB's Shimmy Shimmy Ya  never really turned out to be an internet sensation but it's still pretty darn entertaining nonetheless. If you can't make it to Mitzi's, Ultra Mega will be dropping by the Tranzac (292 Brunswick) for a show with the Storytellin' Liars on Friday (July 2). Jorts optional.
