La Sécurité (Montréal/Tiohtià:ke) is a collective whose art punk is equal parts: jumpy beats, off-kilter arrangements, and minimalistic melodic hooks. After years of writing earworms for the pleasure of beautiful weirdos, all the while strutting their style on tour with their many different projects (Choses Sauvages, Laurence-Anne, Silver Dapple, etc.), the motley bunch now meanders the fringes of punk, new wave and krautrock. Since coming together, the five-piece has been invited to perform at Reeperbahn, SXSW, Sled Island and FME, also sharing the stage with the likes of Automatic, Orchestre Tout Puissant Marcel Duchamp and Annie-Claude Deschênes (Duchess Says). The band recently offered Stay Safe! (June 16th, 2023 via Mothland), a first full-length that is manic, yet surprisingly laid-back, and should no doubt strike a chord with fans of Le Tigre, Automatic, Wet Leg, Devo, E.S.G. or The B-52’s.

Fold Paper is a post punk project started by Chell Osuntade in Winnipeg, MB. After playing in a plethora of Winnipeg bands, Chell started his own music project to further hone into his love of the post punk genre as well as to show his ability to thrive in the genre as a POC. Fold Paper takes inspiration from other post punk power houses, such as Blessed, Stuck, Unschooling, Palm, etc. Fold Paper may be on route to be one of the best post punk projects in Winnipeg.

Deep Archive is a four piece band from Treaty 6 Territory.  Longtime Saskatoon music scene contributors: Chad Munson (guitar), Darren Miller (bass), Jeff Pederson (drums), and Will Robbins (guitar) have been quietly working away on some very loud and strange music for over half a decade.  Following the departure of founding member Aaron Scholz (guitar), Deep Archive have focused ever more tightly on the purely instrumental aspects of the project. The past and ongoing: punk, noise, metal, grunge, ambient, and experimental sound art activities of the members are refracted through a sound that is loud, textural, and complex.
