CJLO's Funding Drive kicks off tomorrow (Wednesday) evening at Casa del Popolo (4873 St Laurent). Come celebrate campus community radio at our On Rotation All-Stars Opening Party- featuring our 2016 artists-in-residence: Joyce N'sana (World), Strange Froots (Hip Hop), Wiklow (RPM) and Po Lazarus (Rock). Doors at 7:30pm with CJLO DJs and show starts at 8:30pm! Proceeds go to keeping CJLO going in 2017!

Another edition of POP Montreal has come to a close, and it was a good 'un, folks. As the CJLO team grapples with things like "sleep debt" and "real life", we thought we'd take a moment to reflect on some of our favourite moments of the festival.

The Power of Alison Mosshart at The Kills

Tune into Ashes to Ashes tomorrow (September 27^th) at 1pm to hear an interview with Winnipeg-based artist Micah Visser!  He’ll discuss his new EP, Forward, touring in support of it across Canada, and perform a couple of the EP’s tracks acoustically!  Catch Visser perform tonight in Montreal at an event hosted by Pointe Saint-Charles collective Bad Lunch.

There are scores of shows at POP Montreal, more rare are the MOMENTS,  when everything is beautiful, everyone is engaged, your throat tightens and you smile to yourself because you know that this is truly special. Leif Vollebekk's Friday night rooftop set was such a moment. Panoramic views over Montreal, gothic rooftops and the Mt Royal cross pushing up into the cloud line, the sun setting golden orange in the Montreal north. On a Persian rug island ringed with electric candelabra, Vollebekk sets up, invites the tiny crowd to pull near. What follows is a deeply intimate hour of music, Vollebekk alternately behind the keyboard and guitar, traffic from Parc Avenue offering the occasional punctuation.
