Osheaga 2025 is 62 days away!

Our Unofficial Osheaga Podcast is back for 2025! As always, we’re kicking things off chronologically (it just seems the best way to go) so this is our second look at Friday’s lineup!

(More or less) every two weeks Sarah and I will be digging into the entire lineup of this year’s Osheaga to give you music recommendations all summer long. We pick ten acts from each day, we talk about them, play clips of their tunes to give you a feel for their music and tell you why we think they’re worth checking.

We’re having fun and talking about music all summer long, won’t you join us?

But wait – you don’t need us to tell you why you should probably check out The Killers now do you? So (for the purposes of this show) we ruled out the entire top line of each day of the lineup. So yes, that means you will need to decide for yourself if you’re going to see the likes of Dominic Fike or not.

Trust us, if you listen to all of these episodes you might find yourself running back and forth between stages all weekend and discovering your new favourite artist.

Here is our second batch of 5 “non-headline” acts we think are worth checking out for Friday !

Osheaga 2019 Podcast – Sunday Part 1

by on July 18, 2019 at 6:39 pm
Posted In: Homepage, Music, Osheaga, Osheaga Podcast, Other podcasts, Podcast, Podcasting

The Osheaga Arts & Music Festival is absolutely one of the biggest events of the summer in a city that is defined by having a million big events in the summer. And this year, it’s going to be even bigger. The last two editions of Osheaga took place on a temporary site that made the best of re-purposed sections of the Circuit Gilles Villeneuve but 2019 will mark the return of the festival to the original site. By original site I of course mean a newly renovated site that boasts a capacity somewhere over 65,000 people.

So to celebrate Osheaga being even bigger than ever we are making our 9to5.cc podcast specials even bigger than ever. How much bigger? Twice as bigger. That’s right, instead of one episode a day, Sarah and I will be breaking down our picks for each day across two episodes. When are we starting? Right now.

Our fifth episode is all about guys named Sebastian. Or at least partially about guys named Sebastian. There are also a lot of pro tips. Expect our last episode some time next week because we are just two weeks away from Osheaga!

Enjoy the show!

Episode 1 (Friday Part 1) is here.
Episode 2 (Friday Part 2) is here.
Episode 3 (Saturday Part 1) is here.

The Osheaga Arts & Music Festival is absolutely one of the biggest events of the summer in a city that is defined by having a million big events in the summer. And this year, it’s going to be even bigger. The last two editions of Osheaga took place on a temporary site that made the best of re-purposed sections of the Circuit Gilles Villeneuve but 2019 will mark the return of the festival to the original site. By original site I of course mean a newly renovated site that boasts a capacity somewhere over 65,000 people.

So to celebrate Osheaga being even bigger than ever we are making our 9to5.cc podcast specials even bigger than ever. How much bigger? Twice as bigger. That’s right, instead of one episode a day, Sarah and I will be breaking down our picks for each day across two episodes. When are we starting? Right now.

Check out these podcasts:

  • Episode 1: Friday Part 1

    Our first episode is dedicated to “bands” playing on Friday. We’ll be back in two weeks to explore some of our favorite picks with more of a electronic or hip-hop slant. Expect a new episode around the 15th and 30th of each month all summer long right up until the festival.

 

Our second episode is dedicated to  some of our favorite picks with more of a electronic or hip-hop slant. Expect a new episode around the 15th and 30th of each month all summer long right up until the festival.

 

 

 

  • Episode 3: Saturday Part 1

    Our third episode is sadly, as per Sarah, missing a “vibe” but that doesn’t mean it isn’t good fun. Expect a new episode around the 15th and 30th of each month all summer long right up until the festival.

Our fourth episode is all about feeling good about yourself.  Expect a new episode around the 15th and 30th of each month all summer long right up until the festival.

 

Our fifth episode is all about guys named Sebastian. Or at least partially about guys named Sebastian. There are also a lot of pro tips. Expect our last episode some time next week because we are just two weeks away from Osheaga!

 

 

 

Our final preview episode (we’ll have a “Comedown” episode on Monday August 5th) is a little about romance and a little bit about being a badass lady. Also! Check out Go Plug Yourself on Thursday for our full length episode with We Are Monroe!

Osheaga 2017: Day 3

by on August 7, 2017 at 3:28 pm
Posted In: Blogs, Homepage, Keith, Montreal, Osheaga

As the laundry machines spin and spin and the house is slowly getting cleaned up after a weekend of nearly nonstop partying, we reflect on the third and final day of Osheaga.

Sunday did not start well for us. The battery meter on my camera flat-out lied to me and told me that I was going into the day with around 66% power. Somehow on the trip to the festival site it died completely. Stupid lying camera. That meant that all of today’s photos had to be shot on my phone. Fortunately my phone’s camera is pretty sweet. Secondly, the lineup to get into the site was disastrous. Sarah had to wait for over 45 minutes just to get in.

The good news is that it was all up hill from there.

With Sarah still stuck in the never ending line I took the opportunity to bounce around to catch a couple of songs of performers woefully booked at the same time. I managed to catch the tail end of Bishop Briggs set and then head over to the Island Stage to watch some of Weval‘s set as well. The crowds for both acts were a good indication that the Osheaga festival goers had kept something left in the tank for an epic finale to their weekend.

I caught just one song from Phantogram’s set while I got my first beer of the day and honestly, I am glad to report that they’ve upped their energy level from the last time I had seen them play (Osheaga 2014 if my memory serves). Phantogram has always been a band that I have enjoyed in the studio but never really clicked with me live. Either way, it seems like 3 extra years of touring has helped them knock the kinks out of their live performance.20170806_154102 ↓ Read the rest of this entry…
