A passion project of local luminaries Machado Mijiga, Mike Gamble and Garrett Baxter, Neighbors is as much a community-building exercise as it is an expert-level musical collaboration, or a once-a-month garage band bro hang. “The name is very literal,” Mijiga says. “We are actually neighbors in the Alberta neighborhood. We’re all professional musicians who play in all kinds of bands and projects, of our own and with friends. We’re always in the same neighborhood, so we thought why not get together more often, just to play and hang out? So we do that. Every month, we meet up and record new music.”
