NXNE 2013 Day 2

Similarly to Thursday, Friday was spent mostly in one place.

I started at The Mod Club (lovely venue!) for Wildlife and then local (Winnipeg) favourites Imaginary Cities. I was very pleased to see people around me in the front singing along. I truly enjoy seeing how bands fare in other cities, and it's clear that Toronto loves Imaginary Cities.

Next stop was Cameron House for the Manitoba Music showcase. Sweet Alibi were already on stage when I arrived, but I did not miss my favourite song, "I'll Wait".

Next up was Federal Lights, who have been a favourite of mine since the first time I saw them live a couple of years ago at the Park Theatre. Their sound has grown since Carbon, and I can't wait to hear the new CD.

The Revival played next, and brought the same energy as the night before. Hopefully their new record will get them the attention they deserve with a wider audience.

Ingrid Gatin closed out the night. It was nice to end off with an acoustic set after all the bands.
