::: Line Spectra :::<\/p>\n
Since forming on the West side of Montreal in 2006, Line Spectra\u2019s indie-rock grooves and addictive hooks have warmed the hearts of many. Kathy Perlini, Diana Lalla and Vanessa Morelli make up the power trio, who burst onto the Montreal music scene with their first, independently released, self-titled EP in 2007. The band is as known for their melodic, energetic, and eclectic songs as their infectious bubbly personalities.<\/p>\n

Comprised of Jay Alexander Brown, Schuyler Dunn-Flanagan, Paul Col and Martin Brisebois, People Person combine gritty guitars with haunting harmonies, wildchild bass, and tales of a mysterious funkle named sam. Their first album will be out this May.<\/p>\n http:\/\/www.myspace.com\/peoplepersontunes<\/span><\/a><\/p>\n ::: The Twenty Shoe String Band :::<\/p>\n Ten musicians = twenty pairs of shoes = twenty shoe strings (depending on the shoe) = nine string instruments and one drummer. The Twenty Shoe String Band got together when the leaves fell in 2010 and have been gracing the ears of Montrealers with old-time and new-time folk tunes ever since.<\/p>\n http:\/\/twentyshoestringband.tumblr.com\/<\/span><\/a> *********************<\/p>\n ::: KANATA – Indigenous Studies Community :::<\/p>\n KANATA is a McGill-based student support community that explores, shares, and provides learning opportunities for anyone interested in Indigenous Studies and highlights information on the various organizations, events, and ongoing initiatives that are of interest to the indigenous community. One of KANATA’s primary activities is the development and production of a student-led annual interdisciplinary academic journal. This publication enables students to discuss and explore ways in which knowledge can be manifested and applied in the world outside of the classroom. In essence, KANATA aims to improve relations between Native and non-Native people in North America through research and knowledge advocacy, both in the academic community and in the public realm.<\/p>\n
