Canadian Music Week has already roped in some big-name performers for its 2014 instalment, and now we've got the names of some more artists who will be appearing at venues around Toronto during the festival from May 6 to 10.
The latest batch of artists includes Mastodon, Owen Pallett, Little Dragon, Travi$ Scott, Born Ruffians, Mounties, Hidden Cameras, Hollerado, Brendan Canning, Nothing, Matt Pond PA, Kongos, Diana, the Operators (with Dan Boeckner), the Flatliners, the Glorious Sons, High Dials, Wildlife, the Balconies, No Sinner, the Strumbellas, Biblical, Nikki Yanofsky, Grey Kingdom, Flash Lighnin', Poncutation, the BB Guns, Grounders, the Motorleague, Pat Jordache, the Slackers, PyPy, Red Mass and many more.
They join previously announced acts like M.I.A., City and Colour, Tegan and Sara, Television, Neko Case, Ellie Goulding, OFF! and No Age.
To help fans gain access to some of the larger shows, CMW is introducing a concert lottery. This will allow fans to RSVP for select shows when the lotteries are announced daily through social media, with those who are quick on the draw getting guaranteed spots on the list. Lottery contenders must be wristband holders, and they will guarantee a place for them plus a friend, so long as both have wristbands.
The lottery shows are: City and Colour, Neko Case, the 1975, Owen Pallett, Mastodon and the Canadian Radio Music Awards
Tickets and wristbands can be purchased at CMW's website, where you can also see the festival's full lineup.
