Crushing the musical honour system
Toronto-based band Crush Luther will be releasing their album on iTunes for a pay-what-you-can price from Sept. 29-Oct. 13. The Charlatan’s Larissa Robyn Johnston sat down with the band’s lead singer, Luther Mallory, to discuss the new album, stealing music and the Jonas Brothers.

Review: Russell Peters
Heading into the Civic Centre for Russell Peters live in Ottawa, scepticism was in the air.
Could Peters drum up that much new material for his 20th anniversary tour, "RPXX"?
He could.
The evening started off with a hilarious, self-deprecating opening act from Jean Paul, a Trinidad-born but Canada-bred comedian.
With jokes mostly poking fun at his relationship with his wife and her Caribbean accent, he kept the audience in stitches and had the crowd perfectly warmed up for Peters to take the stage.
