Blind Commentary is a hardcore emo and alternative-rock band based in Saskatoon, Saskatchewan, Canada. The band's signature sound is best described as a dynamic fusion of shoegaze, emogaze, grungegaze—essentially any and all variations of 'gaze,' infused with hardcore elements.

The Last Prairie Waltz: A Tribute to The Band and Canadian Made All Star Lineup
50th Anniversary Live Concert and Screening  (Winterruption YXE 2026)

2026 marks the 50th anniversary of critically acclaimed musical documentary “The Last Waltz” . This 2-part evening will include a live concert curated by Heidi Munro, featuring some of Saskatchewan's finest and most prominent musicians  in various performances of songs from the original concert.  These unique performances will be followed by a screening of the film.

The Last Prairie Waltz celebrates the timeless and brilliant music of The Band, while shining a spotlight on the rich tradition of Canadian-made songs that continue to shape our culture. This powerful show brings together an all-star lineup of professional touring artists, songwriters, and legendary musicians who proudly call Saskatoon home. Spanning generations and crossing the boundaries of genres, this cast is united by a common bond: the music itself—the magic it creates, the mountains it moves, and the unforgettable songs it inspires. With deep respect and reverence for The Band, their spirit, and the era they embodied, this homegrown, world-class lineup brings the songs of The Band to life with authenticity, passion, and their own prairie artistry. The vision of The Last Prairie Waltz is to carry this production across Canada, inviting great artists and musicians from every corner of the country to join the cast and celebrate our shared musical legacy.

Open Mike Eagle found comedy in contemporary American horrors on albums like 2014’s Dark Comedy and catharsis in exposing his past on 2020’s Anime, Trauma, and Divorce. Now, the incisive, hilarious, and idiosyncratic purveyor of art rap praised by The New York Times, Pitchfork, and The New Yorker manipulates time like Dr. Strange on his new album, Component System with the Auto Reverse.

Factor Chandelier’s production combines melodic moods and live instruments over immaculate drums put together seemingly effortlessly to create a distinct sound. Factor is always trying to create original, thought-provoking music that pushes the envelope of traditional hip-hop and has drawn attention to this innovative Canadian artist.

Eekwol aka Lindsay Knight is an award-winning hip-hop performing artist and activist who has dedicated years to the culture and craft of hip-hop to create something unique and astounding to give back to the community. She is half nehiyaw (a status member of Muskoday First Nation) and half immigrant (Russian/Polish) with lived experience as an urban Indigenous person in Saskatoon, Treaty Six Territory. Eekwol uses her music and words to spread messages of resistance and revolution and keep Indigenous language, land, and culture alive for the next generations. 

Along with her own creative work, she is a mom of two, a PhD Candidate and lecturer at the University of Saskatchewan and is frequently invited to work with young people across Turtle Island as a mentor and helper. She achieves this through performances, workshops, speaking events, conferences and programs. In 2024, Eekwol released her 9th studio album titled, TMRWS, which is on all streaming sites.

In the beginning, there was THUMP.  Spontaneously combusting into creation at some point along the space-time-dance continuum, the musical group known as THUMPASAURUS has entertained, appetized, terrified and satisfied international audiences with their high production live shows, cinematic music videos, theatrical collaborations, late-night TV performances, and energy-packed albums, EPs, and singles ever since their big bang origin.

Jane Inc. is the solo moniker of Carlyn Bezic, forged after years spent building bona fides in the Toronto music scene with groups like U.S. Girls, Darlene Shrugg and dance-pop duo Ice Cream. Pitchfork called Number One, "dazzling... [Bezic] proves herself a musical Swiss Army knife, capable of anything and revelling in her multiplicity." Faster Than I Can Take was covered by SPIN, FADER, Pitchfork, Bandcamp Daily, and Stereogum, to name a few. In her live show, Bezic takes the conceptual edges of her work and pushes them with a physical abandon and “incredible presence, keeping the audience rapt even when she was justdancing hypnotically” (Brooklyn Vegan).

Shrimp fuelled party band with ADHD, and too many sequins. Fancy Diamonds plays moderately extravagant music for singles, couples, thrupples, and cults. Featuring fun songs with whimsical guitar licks, warm organ tones, and catchy beats.

Maia Sinaiko and Susanna Thomson like to joke that they are delusional about Sour Widows, the Bay Area band they started seven years ago that is just now releasing its entrancing and powerful debut LP, ‘Revival of a Friend’. In those seven years, Sinaiko and Thomson each endured losses and hardships that at times required putting bigger plans on hold; looking back, they can only laugh at these hurdles and wonder if they should have taken them as signs—to stop, to start over, to succumb to the hardship.

PISS is a noisy, genre-bending 4-piece punk band from Vancouver B.C. The band combines music, poetry, sound collage, performance art, and various mediums of visual art to address complex themes that blur the line between personal and political.

Yarbo is an aggressive rock band from Saskatoon, Saskatchewan. Bouncing between inspirations in ‘heavy music’ with an indifference towards classification, Yarbo’s music is consistently fast, catchy and punishing. Their debut album ‘Husband’ showcases this and it's pretty alright.

Proudly presented by The Ness Creek Cultural and Recreational Society, Inc. 

Annie-Claude Deschênes embraces multidisciplinarity in her quest to merge music and performance art, challenging stage conventions. A prominent figure in Montreal's independent music scene for over twenty years, she gained recognition as the frontwoman of the cult bands Duchess Says and PyPy. Annie's solo project marks a shift from aggression to dystopian disco vibes. Inspired by minimal pop and electronic pioneers, her debut album, LES MANIÈRES DE TABLE, is both danceable and disquieting, reexamining social codes of politeness

New York/Berlin based musician and multimedia artist JJ Weihl makes music under the moniker Discovery Zone. Growing up in Manhattan, JJ listened to a lot of 90s pop and oldies as a kid before discovering jazz and alternative rock as a teen. Spending most of her free time reading, writing stories and engaging with modern dance and theater — she started writing songs on the guitar in high school. Dance and choreography fueled her interest in music, leading her to touchstones like Art of Noise and Aphex Twin whose music often accompanied dance performances.

Mart Avi is known for making spiky and mysterious music for the feet and heart, for living and loving. He grew up in a pint-sized Estonian village named Vara ("Treasure" in English), toying around with rusty remnants from its industrious past that informed his aesthetics in creating another space, using topographies close at hand. Mapping uncharted territories between modern pop and timeless grandeur, Avi, as a sound master and singer-songwriter, is simultaneously suave and slippery. His shimmering melodies, crackling rhythms and off-kilter mindgames tend to seduce the unawares. A consummate performer, he presents a fascinating paradox of soulful tenderness pulsing beneath commanding arm thrusts and menacing high kicks.

Venue: Green Room

With the western Canadian badlands as a backdrop, Direwind's chief inspiration lies in the past; The fundamental spark of being which connects historical humanity to all current lives, through the earth and sun and everything experienced in between.

Combining dissonant metal influence with stripped-down coldwave and industrial, all entwined with the tremulous voice of Saskatoon's own Taylor Jade, a deep well of influence produces music curious enough that it takes a moment to dissect just which comes from where. New Altrive Tales, the groups initial full-length, and its themes of consciousness, morality and antagonism, remain at home with aggressive tracks like bludgeoning opener "Auld"; but Direwind has no fear of ambience. The cold, elemental "Spire's Curse" closes the record with similar ease, reminding listeners not only of the past as a musical catalog of the 1980s, but the past as the lives of those who've come before and the spark that connects us all

Formed in 2013 and promptly getting to work on a split tape and two successive demos, Goathammer have been a study of staunch underground ethics from the very beginning. Theirs is a sound that's steeped in decades of arcane black/death wisdom, canvassing an array of eras and international flavors whilst being finessed into foul, filthy form by true fanatics. Their debut release for Hell’s Handbanger’s records, Ceremony of Morbid Destruction is the grand, garish culmination of Goathammer's noble work thus far. There’s a sulfurous aura and true dungeon-bound darkness that bespeak the ancient ways of the 1990s, but completely unselfconsciously so. Goathammer possess the unique elan to conjure a sensation that evokes both nostalgia and newness, and above all, put forth an identity that's theirs alone and offering boundless exploration of those depths for the future.

Saturday, January 24, 2026

Venue: Broadway Theatre

 Kevin McDonald’s “Superstar” is the rock and roll, true story of a bad relationship, Kevin had in the 90s - which led to an evening of misadventure, one evening in New York with Dave Foley. 

Kevin and his talented cast (they need to be talented because Kevin isn't) sing and act out this traumatic story with catchy melodies. It's trauma that rhymes. Oh and it's also a comedy - so it's funny trauma. Funny musical, trauma.

Comedian, actor, writer and director Kevin McDonald founded “The Kids in the Hall” with friend Dave Foley, after they met in Toronto at Second City, and the television series ran from 1988-1995. In the troupe's television series and stage shows, he portrays several popular recurring characters, such as the King of Empty Promises, Sir Simon Milligan, and Jerry Sizzler. McDonald went on to appear in a variety of films including Boy Meets GirlLilo & Stitch, “Lilo & Stitch: The Series”, and Epic Movie

On television, he has appeared on “The Martin Short Show,” “Ellen,” “That '70s Show,” “Seinfeld,” “Friends,” “NewsRadio,”  “MADtv,” “Arrested Development,” and “Corner Gas.” McDonald has also done voice work for various animated series, including Nickelodeon's “Invader Zim,” “The Angry Beavers,” “Catscratch,” and “Clerks: The Animated Series.” He also played an imaginary friend named Ivan in the episode ‘Sight For Sore Eyes’ on “Foster's Home for Imaginary Friends,” appeared in the music video for "Roses" by Outkast, and made an appearance in “Tim and Eric's Awesome Show.”

In 2006 McDonald hosted a CBC Television special, featuring several of Canada's best-known sketch comedy troupes. "Sketch with Kevin McDonald" won a Canadian Comedy Award (Best Taped Live Performance - The Minnesota Wrecking Crew). He was recently at the Just for Laughs Festival with the reunion of Kids in the Hall, and also with his show "Hammy and the Kids" with Craig Northey, based on his two dysfunctional families, his father ("Hammy") and the Kids in the Hall, as well as “Death Comes to Town” on CBC.

Along the way, Kevin was also in the movies, Sky High and Galaxy Quest. He did his podcast from 2016 to 2020. Just recently, he and the Kids in the Hall did another season of their sketch show for Amazon Prime.  He has also done a bunch of things that he forgets. And the world is better off for that.

Bahay Kubo is more than just a drag collective, it’s a movement. We are rooted in Treaty Six territory, and we carry the name Bahay Kubo which translates to Nipa Hut - a symbol of Filipinx identity, resilience, and courage. Through performance, artistry, and unapologetic queerness, we weave a love letter to the Filipinx diaspora - to those, like us, who left the homeland in pursuit of a better future. We are brown and Asian joy incarnate, honouring culture and heritage, through the power of drag. 

From the relentless heat of the Philippines to the unforgiving chill of the prairies, Filipinx resilience endures - Just like Bahay Kubo, standing strong, unshaken, and ready for whatever lies ahead!

Ivana Beer is Saskatchewan's elite clown hooker. Don't be fooled by her good looks though because she quite literally is a jack of ALL trades. You never really know what you're going to get with her but she can guarantee it will be funny and shocking in the best way possible. She has a love for bringing creativity to people in ways you've never seen before and she'll never leave you unsatisfied but you'll definitely be wanting more!

Playwright, director and singer songwriter Sean Nicholas Savage has returned to a pop palette with his most brilliant batch of classic ballads to date. His new album, “The Knowing” is a pivot; at once more subversive and yet more fashionable than ever before.

Savage engaged several collaborators on this record. Longtime accomplice Pascal Chenard recorded and produced the record with Savage in London, England, where Savage was born. The lead single, “Your Drug”, a reflective duet with Arbutus Records label mate Marci, both familiar and yet with an edgy bareness that allows it to recontextualize its nostalgic trope. Belgian singer songwriter David Numwami played guitar on the songs “Stranger Than Fiction” and “Wild Things” and artist JJ Weihl aka Discovery Zone co-wrote “Pink Bouquet”.

The Shivas have been called “the hardest working band in show business”. While that is impossible to measure, it’s also not far from the truth. Since their humble beginnings as high-school best friends almost two decades ago (the band formed in 2006), they have been grinding away tour after tour - visiting over 25 countries - and album after album - this is their 10th LP. Their sound has always evolved as they have grown, and worked with different labels and producers, but it has always stayed true to the psychedelic vision those kids had years ago at the very beginning.

WUT are three friends from Vancouver making jangly pop music with a punk rock heart. Being in love with craft and the handmade, they love to create- and have together released a cassette, a full length record, and 12 homemade music videos. Their heart-felt live shows will have you hugging your friend while raising your fist at “The Man”.

Blue Fantasy began as a recording project (and an excuse to get together and hang out) for Saskatoon musicians Shelby Gaudet (the Radiation Flowers, Lucy’s Seduction) and Christopher Laramee (Runway, Wasted Cathedral) and Regina musician Christopher Sleightholm (Snake River). After recording on and off for a few years they completed their debut album in 2024, which is a homespun jangly garage folk kaleidoscope daydream. They added drummer Charles Lamire to play live, with the full lineup they can take the songs to new places. In 2025 they released a split LP with Chicago legends Plastic Crimewave Syndicate.

Disciplined ASYLUM wardens WIL MASCHINE and ZOO MUSIC GIRL will provide the requisite Goth, Industrial, and Darkwave sorcery that have been Asylum cornerstones since it’s inception, while Saskatoon miserabalist SKOT HAMILTON (KEN mode, Adolyne, etc) unveils his new solo entity, DEEP INFIRMARY.

DEEP INFIRMARY:
As a life-long devotee and architect of all things aurally caustic, it was only a matter of time before an experiment like DEEP INFIRMARY opened its glassy inhuman eyes, gained something approximating sentience and flung itself from the desk of stalwart noise-monger Skot Hamilton (KEN mode, Adolyne, et all...). A new solo undertaking intended to parade the industrial leanings that Hamilton has long alluded to on so many of his past efforts, this violently oscillating body of work evokes the vivid, whirring dystopias and charnel atmosphere of industrial's early phases and compels them to fresh animation. Fierce Tactility, thick grime and godless waves of manipulated racket collide with Hamilton's pre-existing notoriety for damaged, atonal noise-metal in a veritable vortex of ill tidings.

DJ sets from:
WIL MASCHINE – (Industrial strength authority from the Founder of ASYLUM)
ZOO MUSIC GIRL – (live DJ set from the host of CFCR's RELEASE THE BATS)

Proudly presented by The Ness Creek Cultural and Recreational Society, Inc. 

Playful as a puppy but smart as a whip, New Brunswick, Canada’s MOTHERHOOD has a knack for  packing deeply conceptual art rock into a delightfully unpretentious package. Equal parts complex and unpredictable, the trio has assembled a bold body of work that blends the ferocity of punk, the finesse of surf, and the raw energy of garage into something riffy, rhythmic, and categorically ‘other’.   Oft-described as “Evil Beach Boys”, Motherhood’s live show is as intense as it is endearing, with chemistry borne of a longstanding best-friends-first mentality. The Fredericton-via-Belleisle Bay trio oozes small-town charm, their rural roots showing in the hillbilly colloquialisms that have become their signature style.

French Class is an electronic synth pop project from Winnipeg. Megumi Kimata works in collaboration with Tiana Garcia on vocals, Gabriela Ocejo on guitar and vocals, Lindsay Woolgar on bass, Kevin Waters on drums and Nolan Gottfried on saxophone.
