With 27,139+ artists, boasting 141,075+ 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.

This week's playlist contains a double whammy, in that it was made by The Washboard Union, who are releasing an album this Friday July 6th at the Waldorf, alongside The Crackling, who are ALSO releasing an album. Double Whammy. The boys gave us and AWESOME playlist full of some of my favourites from Vancouver. Click below to check it out, and I'll see you at the Waldorf on the 6th!
