Once again there is a large Canadian contingent in Austin for SXSW this year. Indeed, two venues will see an entire Canadian takeover, becoming Canada House ( Friends Bar, 208 E 6th) and Planet Québec ( Swan Dive, 615 Red River Street) respectively.

Now, we can’t all be in Texas for a week – but that is no reason to miss out! As well as hosting their BBQ in Brush Square today, Canadian Blast have put together a sampler featuring over 4 hours of new music.

You can enjoy it below or head to Canadian Blast to download it all for the price of an email address.
