The Sour Patch Men www.sourpatchmen.bandcamp.com Calgary’s indie-folk outfit The Sour Patch Men blends sharp modern songwriting with the warmth of traditional arrangements, creating a sound that feels both timeless and daring. Beloved for their disarming stage presence, quick wit, and high-voltage energy, the band has carved out a reputation as fearless innovators in the folk and bluegrass scene. Their recently released debut album,"The Second Best Band In Bowness," was the #1 folk album on CJSW for 4 weeks straight and hit #18 on the National Earshot Charts.

Night Howl www.nighthowl.ca Powerful, dynamic, theatrical, and dusted with glitter, Night Howl is a 6-piece festival dance band from Edmonton, Alberta. With a heavy helping of swing and Latin, their genre-bending music is written for the dance floor and tells fantastical tales of love, murder, and creatures of the night. Their unique cocktail of instruments feature haunting cello, blazing trumpet, groovy percussion, psychedelic electric guitar, and powerful lead vocals.
