The Cat Who Played Guitar - By Liona Boyd 

Those performing at the highly entertaining charity extravaganza to support CAMH Gifts of Light on Dec. 7 at Massey Hall include The Sadies, Broken Social Scene, Metric, Scott Helman, Molly Johnson, Ron Sexsmith, Dan Hill, and High Flyer. A second lineup of artists joining the show will be announced in the coming weeks.

Last Saturday evening in Moncton, the singer wound down the Canadian leg of his world tour. To call the show impressive is pure understatement. His attention to detail, glowing rapport with his audience and the message he carries is nothing if not galvanizing. 

Three veteran artists headed the winners list at the 25th anniversary of the biggest night in Canadian blues, held at Koerner Hall in Toronto on June 20. Pictured: Steve Marriner.

The 2021 Prism Prize for Best Canadian Music Video was awarded to Theo Kapodistrias, for his clip for Haviah Mighty’s Thirteen. We will continue to profile noteworthy Canadian videos that are eligible for the 2022 prize, including this one from an eclectic Vancouver-based artist.
