Project Bookmark Canada is pleased to announce a Bookmark for Sudbury, ON for a contemporary novel, The City Still Breathing, by Matthew Heiti, published by Coach House Books in 2013. Everyone is warmly invited to the free event celebrating Sudbury's literature and writers at the official launch of the plaque monument on Thursday, May 3, 4 - 5 p.m., Townehouse Tavern, 206 Elgin Road, Sudbury. “Heiti, a playwright and Genie-nominated screenwriter, tells the story from the alternating points of view of each of these characters over the course of a single day…. The City Still Breathing is set firmly in the early ’80s, with cues that range from a Men Without Hats poster to references to the Donahue show…. In the shadow of the Big Nickel, the city’s inhabitants are presented as survivors, still breathing against a backdrop of slag heaps, hopelessness and boredom…. Heiti’s Sudbury is a dark place, his characters caught between the desire to stay and the urge to flee.” – Shawn Syms (http://nationalpost.com/entertainment/books/book-reviews/book-review-the-city-still-breathing-by-matthew-heiti) "Matthew Heiti is a writer and theatre creator living it rough in Northern Ontario. His fiction has been published in many journals and anthologies. He is a past winner of Grain Magazine’s prize for short fiction, a CBC “Writer to Watch” and the winner of the 2016 Carter V. Cooper Award for Best Emerging Writer. His novel The City Still Breathing is published by Coach House Books, 2013. A proud advocate for developing voices in neglected landscapes, he writes at harkback.org and explores new work in strange places at www.crestfallentheatre.com." -- Wordstock 2016 Poet Laureate Kim Fahner, and City Librarian Jessica Watts, first spoke about their Heiti Bookmark idea with Project Bookmark Canada's founder Miranda Hill, and are delighted their submission has been selected for development.

CKLU Presents Friday June 1st at The Asylum THE BOO RADLEY PROJECT (Elora) https://www.facebook.com/BooRadleyProject/ https://thebooradleyproject.bandcamp.com/releases Hailing from Elora/Guelph ON, The Boo Radley Project is an eight piece (and sometimes larger depending on who is in town) genre-bending collective that fuses funk, indie, jazz and literary prowess. They've been likened to everyone from Tower of Power and Mr. Bungle to The Cat Empire and Wilco. But really, they're just Boo, a ragtag group of brothers serving up a quirky, fresh approach to music. Their live shows are high energy featuring an eclectic mix of instrumentation from electric mandolin to a three piece brass section. In addition to the music, the band uses projections to compliment the live performance, creating an immersive, sensory experience. The band has extensively toured in Ontario, Quebec, the Maritimes and Newfoundland and has played festival stages at Hillside Festival, Halifax Pop Explosion and Riverfest Elora. Their long-awaited debut LP Bred To Be Loyal was released in June 2017 and featured on CBC Radio 1. They also want you to know they had a baby dolphin named after them. It's called Boo and is swimming somewhere off the shores of Hawaii. “I HAVE A HARD TIME PUTTING MY FINGER ON WHAT THIS BAND IS … IT’S DEFINITELY ECLECTIC, BUT IT’S ALSO REALLY INTERESTING.” - CBC Radio THE CELEBRATION ARMY (Toronto) http://www.thecelebrationarmy.com/ https://www.facebook.com/TheCelebrationArmy/ Ever wonder where the groove went? It enlisted in The Celebration Army....All of it. The Celebration Army's music strongly harkens to the golden ages of classic rock and R n B (and even to a raw, dirty sort of funk that people tend to keep a naughty secret). Listen to songs like "Black Blue Jeans" and you'll experience a stylistic breadth that takes listeners all the way from frenetic rock to ingenious hooks to driving funk...
