The Theatre Pub & Grill, a new live music venue in North Sydney–former site of The Deono movie theatre, Mainstreet Lounge or The Phoenix, depending on your vintage–will open its doors on May 6th and the Tom Fun Orchestra is coming out of their cave to help celebrate. You should come too, probably. The recipient of multiple ECMAs and Music Nova Scotia Awards, The Tom Fun Orchestra is a Cape Breton musical institution that has spent years touring around the world on the merit of two critically acclaimed albums, Earthworm Heart (2012) and You Will Land With a Thud (2008). Self-described as the world’s first Cluster Rock Ensemble, an ambiguous title for a sound that embodies the band’s celebratory ethos of camaraderie and nomadic hedonism; The Tom Fun Orchestra offers an uninhibited, wildly energetic live show that is truly a sight to behold.
