sceneandheard SCENE AND HEARD showcases the independent music scene here in Vancouver. With 27,662+ artists, boasting 128,868+ tracks, the CBC Radio 3 web site is the absolute ultimate authority, and the home, of independent music in Canada. With that massive library along with tools for members (free to join!), we’re taking advantage of what they’ve set up by bringing you a fresh batch of music every week featuring local groups who have tracks (entire albums, even!) on the R3 site.

...and by show tunes I don't mean songs from plays...moreso a big collection of tunes from SOME of the artists that are having shows this week in Vancouver. ((A list of where and when you can find tomorrow in the Last Week In Music post!)) We were going to have a guest playlist this week but unfortunate circumstances occurred...but I think I made up for it. There is something for everyone in here... hard rock, soft rock, folk, electro/pop/dance, a bit of punk...I'm really only missing rap. So here is one that I've had stuck in my head for days.

ANYWAYS, come back tomorrow and find out what is happening in Van, OR you could probably tell by some of the artists in the playlist...starting with The Pack A.D. and the Polaris Prize Listening Salon which is FREE and happening tomorrow!!!
