Canuck Congratulations

With the wrap-up of another epic Bonnaroo, I just wanted to take a quick post to congratulate all those Canadian artists who have made enough of a name for themselves and who rock hard enough to get invited to play at the world's premier jam fest. There may be some lineups you like more, and some locales that arent quite as physically demanding, but at the end of the day Bonnaroo is pretty much the be-all and end-all of jam band music festivals. So, without further ado, mazel tov to: Feist, City and Colour (Dallas Green), Kathleen Edwards, who will be returning to Canada for shows later this summer, and Hey Rosetta!, who have a pretty killer US festival tour lined up. Apologies to anyone ive missed but, if i have, thats because ive never heard of you.

I look forward to talking about more awesome Canadian bands in this space and, hopefully, seeing many more gigs by Canucks down south for years to come!
