Experimental-pop project Look Vibrant were formed by Justin Lazarus and Matt Murphy. The band have now expanded, adding more harmonies, and more bounce to their hypnotic pop sound, releasing their Only Qualms EP in September 2015! Look Vibrant came by The Oven during POP Montreal 2015 to share their new sounds!
Marshia Celina is a performing artist & writer. Her latest project Reality Rap: The Digital Tape explores our inner struggles with capitalism, race, gender, and our complicated relationships with rap through a sonic catalogue reminiscent of the nineties. It's not just her content that is intriguing, but her flow & style is consistent and clear throughout her work. It pays homage to classic hip hop sounds that influenced her early years. Mars proves in her work that we can be critical without criticizing and that we all have some self work to do.
