So I have not been reading my feeds for the past few weeks. Did not miss nearly as much as I thought I would – which is all kinds of nice – but there were a few things that did slip past. Starting with one of the more recent misses just from earlier this month was i (heart) music’s annual Hottest Bands in Canada list!

Two Hours Traffic and stretching it a bit Holy Fuck – were the only bands from the east coast to make it on the list this year.

On the following Monday Matthew followed up with the “Also receiving votes…” list.
Locals i see rowboats showed up there as did Ghost Bees [see his recent post Ghost-ly fun for more Ghost Bees], Hey Rosetta!, Jenn Grant, Julie Doiron, Eric’s Trip, and Wintersleep were just a few of the other east coast acts to get at least one vote.

Always a good read and gives me something new to consider and check out.
