The Beaches
The evening promises to be electric with The Beaches, the Toronto-based band made up of sisters Jordan and Kylie Miller, along with Leandra Earl and Eliza Enman-McDaniel. Propelled by the runaway success of their single “Blame Brett”—which has racked up over 100 million streams and dominated the charts for 13 consecutive weeks—the quartet, winner of Billboard Canada’s “Woman of the Year” award and “Group of the Year” at the JUNO Awards 2025, has established itself as one of the most powerful voices in Canadian alternative rock. Following a sold-out world tour, The Beaches return with No Hard Feelings, a blazing album where melancholy, humor, and infectious riffs intertwine, confirming their status as leading figures of today’s alt-rock scene.
Walk off the Earth
A celebrated Canadian musical phenomenon, Walk off the Earth captivates audiences with their boundless creativity and infectious energy. Driven by the undeniable chemistry between Gianni, Sarah, and Joel, the group continually pushes the limits of independent music while inspiring an ever-growing global fan base. Their original songs — includingRed Hands and My Stupid Heart — have garnered billions of streams and views worldwide, while their inventive covers have earned them numerous awards and the admiration of an international audience.
SYML
Brian Fennell’s solo project, SYML, which means “simple” in Welsh, reflects the depth of his music, exploring the instincts that drive us to places of refuge. After studying piano and teaching himself production, programming, and guitar, he made his debut in 2019 with his self-titled album, which includes the multiplatinum hit “Where’s My Love” and the single “Girl.” In 2023, his second album The Day My Father Died, described by NPR as “euphoric,” was recorded in Seattle with Phil Ek and features collaborations with Guy Garvey (Elbow), Lucius, and Sara Watkins (Nickel Creek). SYML has also worked with Lana Del Rey, George Fitzgerald, and Elsa Y Elmar, and his songs have been featured in films and TV shows, including Teen Wolf, where “Where’s My Love” charted on Billboard for over 20 weeks.

Half Moon Run
Fifteen years after their formation, Half Moon Run continues to ascend. The longevity and creative chemistry of its founding trio — Devon Portielje, Conner Molander, and Dylan Phillips – is as bottomless as the ever-growing spectrum of their influences. Most recently, the Juno-award winning band delivered a series of sold out and highly-acclaimed performances with the Montreal Symphony Orchestra, lauded for their emotional scope and technical mastery. Since the release of their first LP, Dark Eyes(2012), the band has performed nearly a thousand shows across dozens of countries, consistently being praised for their singular blend of primal intensity and subtle sensitivity. Half Moon Run is currently working on their fifth LP, tantalizing previews of which have made their way into recent setlists, offering a thrilling window into the band’s energetic future – which appears to be exceedingly bright.
Lou-Adriane Cassidy
After marking the first half of 2025 with Journal d’un loup-garou — an album and a show unanimously praised by both critics and audiences, for which she won twelve Félix awards at ADISQ 2025 — Lou-Adriane Cassidy begins a new chapter with Triste Animal. Taken from her fourth album of the same name, this performance reveals an artist who is both more vulnerable and more assertive than ever. Surrounded by five musicians, she brings to the stage the full richness of her universe: a performance of striking sobriety, interspersed with bursts of raw energy, which solidifies her unique place among the great voices of the region.
Ariane Roy
Everyone agrees that Ariane Roy, a prominent figure in Quebec’s music scene, is emerging as one of Quebec’s rising stars. Nominated in several categories, including Album of the Year – Alternative at ADISQ 2025, winner of the 2025 Collegiate Song of the Year, the 2022 Revelation of the Year Award at ADISQ, and twice nominated for the JUNO Awards, she won over the public with her debut album medium plaisir (2022) and her fiery performances across Quebec. The singer-songwriter returns with Dogue, a second album co-produced with Félix Petit, which is both bold and biting, confirming the full power of her musical universe.
