The night of music at Montreal's MTelus continued with our second band of the night, Skinny Lister. Having formed in the UK about ten years ago, they describe themselves as a Folk Punk Rock band. That's quite the contrast of styles, but they certainly live up to the billing as the usual electric guitars are accompanied by a standing bass, accordian and ukulele are also thrown into the mix. The wrestling fan in me also got a kick out of their 'Listermania' guitar. Skinny Lister found themselves a place on the list of opening acts that I've never heard of but definitely caught my attention by the end of their set. The first photograph was taken at f/2.8, 1/320sec, ISO 3200 at 59mm. Here are several more photographs that I took of their performance.

They were touring to support their latest album, The Story Is..., which was released earlier this year. They also have a pretty loyal fanbase as if several members of the crowd are to be believed, they had been following them over this latest Canadian tour. To find out more about Skinny Lister, don't forget to visit their website. You can also see the photographs I took of Sharp/Shock and The Interrupters by following the respective links.
