Canadian Blast

"EVERY SO OFTEN, a town, city or country inexplicably comes alive, seizes its amount, and spews forth a whole load of great new music. We've seen it in Manchester, Seattle and Sunderland, and in Australia, Scotland and Brazil. And now? Now, all ears are on Canada. From the jittery art punk of Tokyo Police Club to the glorious gloom of The Besnard Lakes, right through to the thrilling, agitated noise of Holy F*** and the spellbinding croon of Patrick Watson. From Montreal to Toronto, Halifax to Vancouver, Canadian Blast is your definitive taster of one of the most exciting new music scenes in the world" says James Jam, New Music Editor, NME.
