\u201cAs one of Wavelength\u2019s co-founders, I\u2019m grateful and elated to be celebrating this momentous milestone of reaching our series\u2019 20th anniversary,\u201d says Jonny Dovercourt (Jonathan Bunce), Wavelength Artistic Director. \u201cWhen our original collective of independent musicians came together two decades ago to find new ways to build excitement and a sense of community in the Toronto music scene, we never expected it to have this longevity – or grow into an institution that continues to champion grassroots artists.\u201d\u00a0<\/em><\/p>\n\n\n\n

Despite including a glance back at the past 20 years, Wavelength\u2019s winter festival programming is future-forward, a \u201clive curated mixtape\u201d line-up of the newest, freshest and most exciting sounds in the Canadian independent music scene. Guest Co-Curator, Ian Steaman (Different Kitchen, CBC<\/em>), brings a fresh new voice to the programming mix with the inclusion of more acts from the worlds of hip-hop, R&B, electronica and art-pop, as Wavelength continues to expand the boundaries of \u201cindie\u201d music.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Winter Festival highlights include: Global electro-soul pioneers LAL in a 20th Anniversary Performance of their debut album \u2018Corners\u2019, a reunion of Owen Pallett\u2019s manic art-folk trio Les Mouches, indie folk-pop collectivists The Hidden Cameras performing their first Toronto show in four years, talented woman rapper and 2019 Polaris Prize Winner Haviah Mighty, and special guest from Los Angeles, hip-hop meets avant-pop artist Torii Wolf, who has collaborated with DJ Premier and Mike Zombie (Drake\u2019s OVO Sound).
