I (Christine) am heading into Toronto once again for the annual NXNE Festival! Lots of Canadian bands performing this year (including a few missing from this preview playlist above) but I'm really excited for the Saturday at the Port Lands.

It's been forever since I've seen Land Of Talk, I'm excited to see HIGHS live again so soon, and tons of Vancouver bands will be performing for the masses (The Zolas, Dan Mangan, Mother Mother).

Over in Club Land, east coaster Adam Baldwin will be playing his solo work (hopefully lots of the new stuff too), Shred Kelly is going to be lighting up the Horseshoe with their stoke folk on Friday, and on Saturday, the supremely talented Kandle will be on the same stage.

Have a listen above to the play list and let us know if you're going to be attending/what you're looking forward to! Full schedule is up here, and be sure to check our instagram & twitter for coverage!
