Get Outside: Stay inside and watch City Sonic on Aux TV

November 6, 2009

This Sunday night, after your weekend of dancing and live music, come home and dial up channel 107 on Rogers cable to watch the national TV premiere of City Sonic TV.

Our half-hour programme airs on the AUX network Sundays throughout November, starting November 8 at 11pm EST. You’ll get to see 5 short films about Toronto’s music landmarks – like Maple Leaf Gardens, The El Mocambo, Massey Hall and more. You’ll learn more about these places and these films from me, your humble host. And you’ll be reminded that yes, music television can be about music again.

City Sonic. Aux TV. Sundays nights. See you there.

Win swell swag with City Sonic and Aux.tv

November 2, 2009

Is it November already? It feels like we just started digging around for City Sonic stories and yet here we are with 20 finished filmsauxLogoHome and a brand new TV show.

November is City Sonic month on www.aux.tv our broadcast partner in crime. AUX is a newfangled TV channel with old-school ideas. Like that music TV should have actual music on it, for one. And so Sunday nights starting November 8, AUX will air City Sonic, the series. Hosted by Liisa Ladouceur (uh, that’s me), each 1/2 hour episode will showcase a different theme. We’re starting with films about Toronto’s musical landmarks and will go from there. More details on all of that to come but right now we want to tell you how you can score something for nothing.

To celebrate the premiere of City Sonic on Aux, we’re having a contest. To win prizes like PlayStation 3 with the new Beatles edition of Rock Band, Bose speakers and Monster Beats by Dre headphones, watch AUX this month (Rogers Cable, channel 107) and look for the City Sonic “word of the day.” Then, after you’ve enjoyed your moment of Pee Wee’s Playhouse nostalgia, enter it at www.aux.tv/contests. Voila! Smart phone/smartphone users will then notice a second code to enter for even more swag on our mobile site at m.citysonic.tv.

Cue monster truck voice: Watch City Sonic on Sunday nights at 11pm EST on AUX, Rogers cable channel 107!
