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.

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.
