New Music Night at The Out Back Shack is like the X Factor of Fanshawe College. You don't want to miss it.

Headlining on October 4 is The Nicest, a local rap duo making the final round of their provincial tour by coming back home to perform right here at the school.

The group — emcees Tim Tansy (Shanktooth), and Kyle O'Rourke (KyleKanevil) — love nothing more than to perform live, and even go as far as including a personal guarantee for those interested in attending.

“Our shows are not like regular shows. It doesn't matter if you hate our music, or love it; you are going to have a good time at our show,” O'Rourke said. “We are in Kingston, Toronto and Hamilton before we hit Fanshawe, because live shows are much better than listening to us on your iPod. We get pretty weird.”

And the two will be the first to tell you how “weird” they can get. O'Rourke said he thinks their personality is what makes their music so relatable but fun to listen to. “I think that is because we are just average people.Maybe even below average people,” he joked. “We just write about what floats into our weird little brains. I hope people remember us as regular dudes who like to party and have a good time.”

The Nicest are all about uptempo beats underneath fun but catchy vocals. Like A-Fos, who are set to open for the group, Tansy said he hopes people pick up on what he and his partner have to say. “I love that people dig listening to us but the shows are where the party is.

Only then can you unlock the true secrets of The Nicest and fully comprehend our inspiriting messages.”

New Music Night at The Out Back Shack starts at 9:30 p.m. on October 4.
