(Unofficial) Osheaga Podcast 2023: The Comedown

And just like that… it’s over.

Osheaga hit a record attendance of over 155,000 over this past weekend. I’ll be the first to admit that Friday started off a little rough as everyone (organizers and fans alike) adjusted to the new layout but then from there on it was pretty damn smooth. We’ve got so much to say about this year’s edition that this might be the longest “Comedown” episode we’ve ever done.

We saw a LOT of bands you guys. We talk about the shows we saw, the friends we made and then do a little speculative fan booking for who might be popping up at next year’s Osheaga. Mark your calendars for August 2nd to 4th in 2024 folks, because at this point you already know it’s going to be lit. Actually, you can buy your tickets right now if you’re adventurous.

See you next year!

Osheaga Podcast 2023 (Unofficial) – Sunday Part 2

Osheaga is in a week!

Hope you’ve got your outfits picked out.

That means it’s time for the last episode in our podcast series, where we take a look at 5 more bands from Sunday’s lineup to help you build your schedule. Sunday is SOLD OUT so if you don’t have your tickets by now well – too bad for you. A lot of people probably bought their tickets to enjoy Kendrick and Fred Again but there’s a whole lineup worth checking out folks. Listen – normally I would have more to say here but 3 Day Passes are sold out, Sunday is sold out – I’m pretty sure by next week Saturday will be sold out too.

Obviously this podcast has really pushed ticket sales over the edge this year so thanks to all of you getting pumped up with Sarah and I once again. Can’t wait to see you all at Osheaga people – maximum hype mode go go go!

Here are 5 more “non-headline” acts we think are worth checking out:

Sunday can seem to be top-heavy at first glance. With Kendrick Lamar, Fred Again.. and Rezz closing out the festivities – but the full lineup is also great and makes me wonder just how much time I’m going to need to recover from Osheaga weekend. Oh, also, if you haven’t had the chance you should really check out the local artists that have been added to the Backyard Sessions stage. Looks like a great little sample of some of the amazing home-grown music coming out of Montreal.

Osheaga runs from August 4th to 6th at Parc Jean Drapeau, music starts at 14h each day. Check out osheaga.com for more info and tickets.

(Unofficial) Osheaga Podcast: Patrick Guay (GPYS 281)

15 days until Osheaga 2023!

We’re super excited to present this episode as we were lucky enough to sit down with the Senior talent buyer from Osheaga: Patrick Guay!

This is an extra long episode since Patrick was gracious enough to come over to our house for the episode and we may or may not have opened several bottles of wines over the course of recording. Patrick talks about getting into the business, some of his favorite shows in history and what makes booking Osheaga so different from many other festivals out.

If you want the full experience I really recommend opening up a bottle of wine, pouring yourself a glass and just sitting back and really just soaking it all in. Or go for a two hour run. One or the other.

Note: I actually cut a good chunk of this episode out where we were talking about the Gathering of the Juggalos, so you can thank me later for that one.

26 days until Osheaga 2023!

As always,  to get ourselves (and you!) hyped up for one of our favorite weekends of the year Sarah and I do what we do every year: listen to the whole dang lineup and make an impossible to follow schedule for all 3 days by falling in love with a dozen artists each day! This episode we are finally taking a look at Day 3 Sunday’s lineup to choose some of our favorite non-headline acts.

I can’t believe it’s already July and Osheaga is really starting to feel like its just around the corner.

Our picks for this episode:

Sunday can seem to be top-heavy at first glance. With Kendrick Lamar, Fred Again.. and Rezz closing out the festivities – but the full lineup is also great and makes me wonder just how much time I’m going to need to recover from Osheaga weekend.

It’s here! It’s finally here! Not Osheaga. Not yet anyways. But warm weather! Warm weather is here and I’m wearing a sleeveless shirt while I type this up!

To get ourselves (and you!) hyped up for one of our favorite weekends of the year Sarah and I do what we do every year: listen to the whole dang lineup and make an impossible to follow schedule for all 3 days by falling in love with a dozen artists each day! This episode we take a look once again at Saturday’s lineup and choose some of our favorite non-headline acts.

Our picks for this episode:

I think I mentioned last episode that Saturday is quickly shaping up to be my most anticipated day of the festival. There is a definite summer vibe and there so many multicultural artists that are normally outside of my wheelhouse. I’m hyped. Hyped I say. Oh, also, if you haven’t had the chance you should really check out the local artists that have been added to the Backyard Sessions stage. Looks like a great little sample of some of the amazing home-grown music coming out of Montreal.

Why is the weather always terrible when we record these? It’s June! It’s cold and raining! That means it’s time for another Osheaga podcast!

To get ourselves (and you!) hyped up for one of our favorite weekends of the year Sarah and I do what we do every year: listen to the whole dang lineup and make an impossible to follow schedule for all 3 days by falling in love with a dozen artists each day! This episode we starting looking into Saturday’s lineup and choose some of our favorite non-headline acts.

Our picks:

Not going to lie – when I first glanced at the Saturday lineup I was a little less enthusiastic than I was about Friday. However, after digging in to the Saturday lineup I am very excited for it. The vibe is a lot more laid back but for Day 2 of a festival I think just hanging out and listening to some of these artists is going to be amazing.

Anyhow, it’s June which means Sarah and I are currently hitting up the Montreal Fringe Festival pretty hard. See you in two weeks!

Sure it snowed last week but that doesn’t mean that summer isn’t around the corner, does it? And one of the best parts of summer in Montreal is Osheaga weekend. That means it’s time for another Osheaga podcast!

To get ourselves (and you!) hyped up for one of our favorite weekends of the year Sarah and I do what we do every year: listen to the whole dang lineup and make an impossible to follow schedule for all 3 days by falling in love with a dozen artists each day! This episode we take a look once again at Friday’s lineup and choose some of our favorite non-headline acts:

Our picks:

This year’s Friday lineup has to be one of our favorites since limiting ourselves to “just” 10 bands was actually pretty difficult. Some artists who we love on Friday include: Two Feet, Rina Sawayama, bbno$ and Kora. Suffice it to say we’re probably getting to the festival pretty early on Friday.

Anyhow, June is right around the corner so that means that we’re about to dive into Saturday’s lineup. See you in two weeks!

Our Unofficial Osheaga Podcast is back for 2023! We’re kicking things off with our first look at Friday’s lineup!

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’ll be picking ten acts from each day, talking about them and playing clips of their songs to give you a feel for their music and why we think they’ll be an amazing show.

But wait – you don’t need us to tell you why you should probably check out Kendrick Lamar 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 Billie Eilish 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 favorite artist.

Osheaga Podcast 2022 (Unofficial) – The Comedown

Posted In: Homepage, Montreal, Osheaga, Osheaga Podcast, Other podcasts, Podcast, Podcasting

Wait… Osheaga is over already?

After months of getting hype it’s hard to accept that this Osheaga weekend is already in the past.

Honestly I think Sarah and I may have set a personal best this year having checked out all or some of at least 29 different acts. We’ve spent the last 2 days trying to let our bodies and brains recover and now we’re ready to break down our thoughts on the first Osheaga since 2019.

We talk about acts that met expectations, exceeded expectations and a few little disappointments (BIA?). We’ve got a few stories to share (like bumping into Sad Night Dynamite and finding out Josh has a crush on Dua Lipa… but who doesn’t?) so if you’re looking to relive Osheaga 2022 with us do yourself a favour and check out this episode.

We also spend a little bit of time doing some fantasy booking for the 2023 edition – look, I’m just saying that Björk has an album coming out pretty soon…

We would obviously love to hear your favorite stories about the festival, so drop us a line on on Instagram, Twitter, or wherever. Oh, and if you enjoy our little show we would love for you to subscribe on Spotify, Google Podcasts, Apple Podcasts or just about anywhere else you get your podcasts. And if you’re feeling extra generous drop us a rating or review. We <3 U.

Our Osheaga Podcast series is almost over, which means it’s almost time for Osheaga!

For our 7th episode we picked five artists that should energize and get you dancing after a full weekend of Osheaga: Royal Blood, Wet Leg, The Halluci Nation, La Doña and Apashe.

Osheaga is coming back in full force from July 29th the 31st at Parc Jean Drapeau and that means our Osheaga podcast series is back too! All summer long Sarah and I will be listening to music from every band featured at all 3 days of Osheaga and sharing some of our favorites with you every two weeks as part of this podcast. 5 bands per episode, 2 episodes devoted to each day of the festival and just to make things a little more interesting we stayed away from the headlining bands of each day, great as they are. If you like the show be sure to subscribe on Spotify, Google Podcasts, Apple Podcasts or just about anywhere else you get your podcasts. So sit back, relax, enjoy the show, enjoy the summer, and see you Osheaga!
