We’re firm supporters of the current flurry of great music coming out of Canada at the moment here at Best Fit. Just have a look back at our Oh, Canada! podcasts.
So we are happy to announce that Canadian Blast (a venture set-up by the Canadian Independent Music Association) are hosting their first-ever showcase at Great Escape, called Canada House.
Stretching over three days, the event will feature the likes of Slow Down, Molasses, Hot Panda and Hooded Fang.
The event will take place at The Blind Tiger Club in Brighton from 10-12 May.
More information can be found on the Canadian Blast website, and tickets can be bought over at the Great Escape homepage.
