Iceage, Milk Music, Grouper, highlights and lowlights from Suoni Per Il Popolo

So I've decided to write about the highlights of my Suoni Per Il Popolo festival this year, where I got to witness some memorable moments alongside boring experiences.

So, it turns out that my original goal of blogging North by Northeast while Team CJLO was situated in Toronto was maybe a wee bit overambitious.

"Piss River" at Rockfest 2013

Today was the 2013 Polaris Music Prize long-list announcement at the PHI Centre in Old Montreal. Members of Radio Radio, Laurel Sprengelmeyer (Little Scream), Ruby Kato Attwood (Yamantaka // Sonic Titan), and Owen Pallett (Final Fantasy) were on hand to quickly read the list. The press conference included a live performance by 2013 long-listers Les Soeurs Boulay.

Hello hello! I'm Lucy ---  you may know me as the voice of CJLO's Community Calendar (every two hours on the odd-numbered hour!), or - more likely - you won't know me from anywhere at all. No matter, because I'll be IN YOUR FACE for the next week bringing you show recaps/updates/assorted nonsense from Team CJLO while we're in Toronto for North by Northeast, from Wednesday June 12th to Sunday the 16th.

Comme promis, la Black Fashion Week a eu lieu à l’eglise Jean-Baptiste, dans un décor religieux. Pour cette première journée de la BFW, nous avons pu apprécier tout les tons de noir, c'est-à-dire  du noir d’ébène au noir décoloré-albinos. Cette entreprise est donc à saluer car !
