Nice to meet you! NxEW.ca (North by East West) is a group blog covering Canadian music. At this point we have 125 writers covering 42å Canadian cities in 10 provinces and 1 territory and even a few people outside of Canada (still covering Canadian music). We hope to add many, many more contributors in our ongoing effort to bring together Canada's varied music scenes in one place to share ideas and information, to talk about what's going on locally and what's going on nationally. For details on who should join us visit nxew.ca/join.html. If you think you might want to contribute read this. Even if you are involved in the 'music business' (musicians, managers, promters etc.,) you are more than welcome. (details here.)
We also have a weekly Mixtape Podcast - if you have music that you'd like to submit for that, get in touch.
Heyup lucabear! Nice pickin'... I'll let ye know about that date in a few days. Cheers, Patrick. P.S. You're into the sparse & slidey stuff: check out my old outfit Bare Bones (on the SY page)!
And you rocked more than I remembered. I kept telling everyone around me how much I loved your songs, I think I may have kept them from actually listening to them!
