SCENE AND HEARD showcases the independent music scene here in Vancouver. With over 28,000+ artists, boasting more than 140,000+ tracks, the CBC Music/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.

So you might have heard already, I’m a DJ now. Well not really…but for one night only I will be! This Saturday is Glory Days’ 4 Year Anniversary and I get to guest DJ! Remember when the mayor did that last year?

Anyways I’m pretty excited, it’s going to be an epic night and all for a good cause too: raising money and non-perishable food for the Vancouver Food Bank! For every item of food you bring in, you get $1 off cover! So if you bring in 12 items, or bring in a receipt/proof of cash donation to http://www.FOODBANK.BC.CA/ & GET IN FREE!

I’m not the only one guest DJing, check out the list below for some other Vancouverites that’ll be making you dance from 10-12am, and then the party goes all the way til 3am with the regular Glory Days peeps!

It’s not to be missed.

Anyways, I’m still trying to figure out what I’m going to play and I think I can make it an all-Vancouver set (seeing as I’m repping VIA)! Click below to hear some of the bands I’ve been listening to in prep, and if you have any suggestions: hit me up on twitter!
