The Trews @ Mercury Lounge, NYC 18-Jan-2012

Canadian rock band The Trews stopped at New York City's Mercury Lounge on The Big Night Out Tour. Led by Colin MacDonald on vocals and guitar, with his brother John-Angus MacDonald on lead guitar, their cousin Sean Dalton on drums, and long-time friend Jack Syperek on bass, The Trews entertained the mid-week Lower East Side crowd with a solid set of their good-time rock'n'roll. It was easy to hear why The Trews have now had twelve Top 10 rock radio singles in Canada (including two chart-toppers), sold over 300,000 albums, and performed over 850 shows worldwide since 2003.
