The FYI Thanksgiving Holiday Schedule

Team FYI is taking the last long weekend before Christmas off, so our next scheduled newsletter is a week from today. We will, however, be updating the website between if and when important news is breaking.


To our readers, thanks for following us, continue to keep us informed on your news and views, and please take time to relax and embrace family and friends on this long weekend. We know the past year and more have been taxing, and we also know how important it is to set our personal anxieties to one side and celebrate when and where we can with those closest to us.

Music News Digest: National Music Centre Opens OHSOTO’KINO Recording Bursary for Indigenous Artists, Great Lake Swimmers Hit The Road

Also this week: Toronto's Our Music Festival returns for a third edition, Wavemakers: Music Futures Conference & Showcase launches in Halifax.

OHSOTO’KINO is an Indigenous programming initiative from the National Music Centre focusing on three elements: creation of new music in NMC’s recording studios, artist development through a music incubator program and exhibitions via the annually updated Speak Up! gallery. The OHSOTO’KINO Recording Bursary program is open to First Nations, Métis and Inuit artists. Two submissions — one for contemporary music, one for traditional genres — will be awarded a one-week recording session at Studio Bell to produce a commercial release. The deadline to apply here is March 1. Past recipients of the bursary include Juno winner Joel Wood, Twin Flames and PIQSIQ.
