A new year to find out what artist or bands will make a splash in 2016.

You should definitely check out this (very) small band from Montreal. They’re called White Dads At A BBQ. I had the opportunity to attend one of their recording sessions and I have to admit, I kinda got excited what the record was gonna sound like. I guess you could think of them as Mtl’s Antarctigo Vespuci.
Hope you enjoy their stuff as much as I did,
Steve
P.S : it seems that they’ve only released a few demos,which is kind of a shame,but im guessing we’ll get more soon
Love Tennyson! Been listening to them since they were in last year’s mixtape. Just heard their new e.p. today and it’s sickkkkk
