Rock band Go For the Eyes “swam 14 hours” from Calgary to return to the Owl Acoustic Lounge, June 22.
They were in high spirits as they played a variety of original music full of catchy blues influenced riffs which gave them a Black Keys feel, except with more instrumentation.
Keyboardist Elise Roller’s keyboard was harmonizing with guitarist Jeff Turner while bassist Scott Perrin laid down an innovative groove. Elise Roller also sang solo on a couple numbers giving the songs a more of a pop feel.
They wound up their set with Turner fiddling with gadgets on the floor while Elise Roller picked up his guitar and played a noisy slide solo with a shot glass.
