Bad Magic with Myles From Home at The Effie

Vancouver based Modern Alt Rock/Dark R&B band Bad Magic is an explosive combination of deep grooves, thoughtful lyrical content and headbanger approved riffs. Helmed by lead singer and songwriter Eric Novak, the band has been described as “if Prince could scream, wrote songs for Arctic Monkeys and grew up going to punk shows”. With a ferocious appetite for connection and living in the moment at their live shows, the band implores the audience to feel your way through the darkness and get you dancing with your shadow.Myles From Home is an offspring from the “classic” era of rock when amps were stacked on amps and the louder you sang, the harder you rocked. Though the Linden, Manitoba native channels his inner rock god, as heard from the songs in his [recordings], he does so quietly amongst folk-rock instrumentation. After studying engineering and frontmaning the band Café Racer in Montreal, Myles is now based in Vancouver, BC. He released his second album “Reading, Riting and Rithmetic” in 2019, a collection of songs about love and math, which he self-recorded and produced while finishing his masters thesis on an implosion driven launcher.The Effie Arts Collective is fast becoming recognized as one of the best venues in Western Canada with a great vibe and great talent. The Effie is proud to serve Phillips Brewing alcohol and de-alcoholised beverages as well as a selection of wines and spirits with various snacks.
