Frank Turner, Andrew Jackson Jihad and Into It. Over It. at the Republik, Calgary, Alberta [Concert]

The show at The Republik on Thursday, October 20^th in Calgary, Alberta shared many similarities with a three-layer cake. In a three-layer cake, each level brings its own attributes to the table. Each level is delicious, but in its own unique way, and as a whole is enjoyable. The same can be said for the three musical acts that graced the intimate stage of the Republik. Each of the artists brought a distinct flavor to the night’s events, and as a whole, the show was very enjoyable. Evan Weiss/Into It. Over It (the soft and delicious angel food cake layer) started off the night. The smooth chocolaty inside of the cake, Andrew Jackson Jihad, played second.
