The Beaches are announcing another NXNE surprise.

After the last girls have left the party for their special DJ set on June 12, The Beaches will play a special concert at a well-known Toronto venue on June 15.


It's a big summer for the breakout Canadian band, with a recent festival set at Coachella and another big one this summer at Osheaga in Montreal. Their new album No Hard Feelings comes out August 29 on AWAL, and its early singles are already rock radio staples. Their latest, "Did I Say Too Much" is coming soon.

The June 15 concert, in partnership with Billboard Canada and NXNE, will be a special intimate all-ages event. The only way to get in is with an NXNE wristband (for a lucky 100 festival-goers) or by winning tickets. To enter, comment on the below Instagram post and RSVP at this link. Winners will be drawn and notified on June 9, with the venue to be revealed later this week.

How This Agent’s ‘Superpower’ Propelled Gracie Abrams, Tate McRae and More Into Arenas

CAA's Shirin Nury's intuitive understanding of young fans informs her approach to advising the pop's next generation of headliners.

Shirin Nury can still remember how she felt going to concerts as a teen in the San Fernando Valley — and
today, she calls those memories her “superpower.”

“I understand fandom and have a very strong barometer for what young women are looking at as fans,” she says. “I can still access a part of me that is that young 16-year-old, going to the Roxy [in Los Angeles], and have that guide a lot of my decision-making.”
