If you managed to snag a ticket for Strawberry Festival, good on you. For the rest of us, there’s still plenty to dig your teeth into, from heartfelt math-rock anthems to adventurous club music that ll have your head reeling. So without further ado, the music scene’s finest offerings this holiday!

While Qingming Festival and Easter duke it out for our attention – wicker baskets, fire bins, and all – the music scene has other plans and could care less about who’s grave we’ll be sweeping or where your chocolate eggs are hiding. And I’m okay with that. More tunes to soak in over the long weekend, more opportunities to check out some new bands, and plenty of time to recover from whatever it was you ingested the previous night. It’s a whirlwind of a weekend – one full of reggae, noise rock, post-rock, metal, indie pop, and punk music in all shades of black. Happy holidays!

Welcome back live music! For a good while there it was touch and go. Shows being canceled, venues shuttering, and an air of uncertainty as the city teetered on the edge of lockdown and shifting regulations. But with spring comes life, and nowhere is that more true than deep inside the music scene which has once again opened the floodgates – with touring bands descending, mammoth platters materializing, and all your favorite stages finally getting a nice coating of sloshed beer and sweat. Oh, how we’ve missed you…
