Apple Music Picks Up Toronto's 'House of Strombo' Concert Series

"This remarkable and very personal experience that you’ve been building over time with artists bringing them into your world, getting performance, getting conversation, doing what you do best... coming to Apple Music," said Lowe, Apple Music's creative director and L.A. anchor of Beats 1.

  "The bands set-up right in my living room, with a live audience packing the place," Stroumboulopoulos explained in a statement. "Lights, smoke machines and amplifiers stacked high -- it's every gig in a small space that you've ever loved, with the best bands in the world."

The first episode features Canadian First Nations DJ group A Tribe Called Red but future guests will be revealed at a later date. Stroumboulopoulos recently had Dinosaur Jr. and Against Me! perform for his House of Strombo show, but no word if they will be part of the Apple Music series.

He currently also does a Sunday night CBC Radio 2 broadcast called The Strombo Show. For almost 10 years, the well-known personality interviewed a who's who of musicians, actors, athletes, authors, politicians and more on CBC television (until 2014) and added a brief stint on CNN in 2013. He then did two seasons at Hockey Night in Canada for Rogers Media.
