Toronto's multi-disciplinary Luminato Festival spans several different mediums including theatre, visual arts, dance, talks and, of course, music. The organizers have now unveiled the event's 2013 program, which runs from June 14 to 23.
The bulk of the music will take place at the Festival Hub, located in downtown Toronto at David Pecaut Square. The Hub will host daily free concerts, with performers throughout the 10-day festival including K-os, Patrick Watson, Amadou & Mariam, Danny Michel, Carolina Chocolate Drops, Laurie Anderson, Rosanne Cash, and Kid Koala's Space Cadet headphone show.
As previously confirmed, Luminato will also stage a two-night tribute to Canadian songwriting great Joni Mitchell featuring Rufus Wainwright, Frames/Swell Season frontman Glen Hansard, jazz veteran Bill Frisell, and more. This will take place on June 18 and 19 at Massey Hall and is in celebration of Joni's impending 70th birthday.
