Ottawa’s Hidden Gig

OLM covers a lot of events — gigs, fests, bashes, shin digs — but we have a solemn duty to tell you when a night is actually fantastic. You already know Clocktower Brew Pub and their sensational list of in house craft beer, but did you know they start serving sound on Wednesday nights? On Richmond Road at 9pm, the Clocktower pub with the biggest patio in Westboro holds their Acoustic Open Mic Nights in their back room. We stopped by this week and you definitely should too — some of the city’s most talented musicians step gracefully out of hiding just to put on an awesome and relaxed show. With wings and appetizers at half price, and pints of beer going for just $5, does it get any better?
