Jesse Speed

Behind the scenes of today’s hyper-social conventions, Jesse is a lone wolf. Subtly enigmatic, on stage he is intriguingly comfortable yet remains strikingly honest. His lyrics may sound bleak yet are a liberating display of the archetypes in modern life. He’s been compared to Bonnie Prince Billy and Father John Misty. Jesse is based in Montreal and is originally from the rustic South-West of Quebec.

Joey Penner

Joey Penner has been writing songs since age fifteen. He studied jazz and classical bass in university and was a member of Juno-nominated band The Waking Eyes, as well Royal Canoe, Jicah, and French Press. His influences include Neil Young, Leonard Cohen, and Donovan.

Haitia

HAITIA is Dana Waldie and Emma Lytle. Newport 1959: long skirts, long hair and plenty of love. They bring old-fashioned harmonies and honest lyrics, with a touch of the prairies. A flash back of your first summer festival, bottled into a sister-love folk duo. Their influences include Laura Marling, Fleet Foxes, and Chic Gamine.
