Oddeline Known for weaving dreamy vintage sounds into thoughtful, carefully crafted songs, Oddeline is a musical project based in Ottawa, Ontario. Heavily influenced by 1960s jazz-folk like Nick Drake and Fairport Convention, with a DIY attitude rooted in a love of post punk and early indie bands, Oddeline started out playing live shows in Ottawa at 18 years old, and released her self-produced debut EP Fated to Drown three years later. Since then, she's been busy carving a unique path as an artist: from recording and performing original music, to co-organizing community initiatives like Tunnelfest (a renegade folk festival held in pedestrian tunnels), to producing for other artists (such as Mars Aspen’s 2023 folk-pop single overgrown).

Willy Nilly
An alt(ish)-rock(ish) band pulling from contemporary alternative and some early 2010s, Willy Nilly's influences don't just end there. Similar bands become harder and harder to point to the more you listen to Willy Nilly's wide ranging and growing discography. Members have changed around singer/songwriter Owen Fullerton since the band's birth in 2019, but the lyrically dense, vulnerable songwriting has remained at the center of the band's upbeat but laid back sound. They released their debut album in 2021 and are looking to release the newest full length in 2023.
Willy Nilly's combination of sounds always seems to invoke a sense of nostalgia and wanderlust. Their live sets are electrifying on the account of each member's unending commitment to their craft and their passionate musical delivery. https://kingstonlive.ca/willy_nilly

February Hate Club
February Hate Club: February Hate Club is a four piece indie rock group hailing from Ottawa. Initially formed in early 2023 for a one-off performance, they decided to keep writing original music as a band - drawing from each member’s unique backgrounds and experience in music to create a powerful blend of rock and indie with punchy elements of pop-punk and more. FHC prides themselves on their flexibility to dabble across many genres, with a core sound akin to the likes of Soccer Mommy, Måneskin, My Chemical Romance, and Paramore.
