The RBC Northern Series presents some of the best acts from Northern Ontario in intimate settings between 5 and 7 pm. OCEAN CITY DEFENDER Ocean City Defender is a synthpop duo comprised of multi-instrumentalists K. Preston Merkley and Robin Moss that creates lush, tightly-crafted,‘80s-inspired electro-pop with a distinctly 21st century shimmer. Their highly emotive and danceable synth pop speaks of dreams, love, and memory. Perhaps it’s this fusion of human sentiment and technology that has subsequently lead to his contributions to video game scores. FREE! Thanks RBC!

Here Come Tommy and the Commies! Let's kick-off the festival with good ol' all-ages punk show. It's a record release. It's a party. It's one hell of a way to get this festival started. Enter through the back alley and make your way up to the Durham Hall. TOMMY AND THE COMMIES (Record Release!) If all the greats of power pop got together and raised a boy-child, the result would be Tommy. He’s joined in this endeavour by the hurtin’ boys: the Houle brothers, who play in every single punk band to come out of Sudbury. Tommy and the Commies’ hooligan pop is one of Sudbury’s best exports, and Up Here marks the official release of their album “Here Come” with Slovenly Records. They make it look so easy. Fun fact: they gave their very first show in a back alley at Up Here in 2016, and now, they’re releasing an album internationally. PRIORS PRIORS are a punk band from Montreal that started as a bedroom project for vocalist Chance Hutchison, and has since evolved into something else entirely. The band includes Drew Demers of The Famines, Stuart Buckley of Stegosaurus, Alan Hildebrandt of Le Tabarnak and Sebastian Godin of Sonic Avenues. They released their first full length LP in March 2018 and are prepping the release of their second LP, New Pleasure, in October 2018. GHOST CAT Two Sudbury ex-pats and a local creating “trying-their-best-rock.” Their two albums, Aw Fuck and Fuck Ya, are curse-laden mantras for the modern age on therapy, hook-up culture, and hating people. Their goofy punk rock is youthful in its energy, but their cynicism is patently adult. DJ PETE SLOVENLY Get ready to move with this guy behind your turntables, or behind his own portable turntables (or under them! They've been seen hanging upside-down...
Get ready because we're kicking off Up Here 4 with venetian snares x Daniel Lanois, one of the most unique and captivating musical collaborations ever to come out of Canada. Presented in collaboration with La Slague. VENETIAN SNARES x DANIEL LANOIS This project is an unlikely meeting of musical minds: Aaron Funk (Venetian Snares) from Winnipeg, and Daniel Lanois originally from Hamilton known for working with Brian Eno, U2, Bob Dylan and Emmylou Harris. In this new project, Lanois focuses on creating gorgeous ambient soundscapes with his signature processed lap steel guitar, while Venetian Snares provides vivid contrasting genre-bending drum’n’bass & breakcore beats. When asked about the project, Lanois said : “It’s like playing clarinet with Squarepusher.” The result is one of the most captivating and unique musical collaborations ever to come out of Canada. A melange of gospel and electronics. MCLEAN / ALBUM LAUNCH McLean is a multi-instrumentalist from Sudbury. He spent his childhood travelling the hallways of an abandoned mine, guided by the ghostly voices of his ancestors. It's no surprise that he formed friendships with poet Sylvia Plath, mathematician John Nash, and musician James Taylor, who taught him to play the guitar during a brief stay at a psychiatric institute. In his great artistic heart he holds great ambitions and hopes to one day die in Sudbury. JOANNE POLLOCK Joanne Pollock if forging her unique brand of future-pop. She has released two EPs, one album with her band Poemss (featuring Venetian Snares) and one critically acclaimed solo album, Stranger. Pollock embraces unconventionality. Her music is a satisfying blend of warmth, folk, pop and glitchy electronics. Originally from Toronto, Winnipeg is currently where she calls home.
