Heavy Friends
Saturday July 7th, 2018 with Heavy Ben
Hillside festival is almost here, July 13-15! This is my 13th Hillside, and I'll be playing music from artists who will appear at this long-running cultural gathering, held annually outside of Guelph.

Hillside is a great place to check new music and on this program you'll hear many artists new to you and/or making their first appearance. We'll also hear Canadian faves such as Cadence Weapon, A Tribe Called Red, Lido Pimienta, Plants & Animals, Jessica Moss, U.S. Girls, as well as imports like krautrock legends Faust.
