BreakOut West announced their 2015 Festival line-up this morning, which they call a "multi-genre set of showcases spanning the very best of up and coming western Canadian talent." 

The showcases will run alongside the Rifflandia Festival (which itself has a pretty great lineup) at venues across Victoria from September 17- 20, and you can find artists like Bend Sinister, BESTiE, Boreal Sons, Gay Nineties, JPNSGRLS, Leeroy Stagger, Rococode, SAVVIE, Shred Kelly, The Matinee, The Wet Secrets, and a whole ton more! 

As well as the festival, the West Coast Music Awards Gala, hosted by Grant Lawrence, will take place on the Sunday at the McPherson Playhouse, with performances from Tanya Tagaq, The Harpoonist & The Axe Murderer, Annette, Sarah MacDougall, and the 2015 Hall of Fame inductees NoMeansNo!

So head over to Vancouver Island this September to check it out!
