The FYI Holiday Calendar

By David Farrell

From us to you, the very best over the holiday season and beyond. Please note that this is the final newsletter for 2019 and that we return reinvigorated and ready to champion the music and the business of music starting Friday, January 3. In between there may be an occasional post on the website as necessity calls.


From team FYI and a big thank you to our supportive readers and sponsors, chief among them being Gary Slaight, as well as Music Canada and CIMA Music.
