There's a new festival coming to town. It's called WayHome and it's taking place north of Toronto, near Barrie, in Oro-Medonte, at Burl's Creek, July 24 through 26. All the details are on the festival site. It's put together by Republic Live and AC Entertainment who just happen to be the co-founders and producers of Bonnaroo Music & Arts Festival, so you know this is going to be a well-run festival. Tickets go on sale today, so check out the great bands that are playing, get excited, choose your camping options, and break out your credit card!
Here are a bunch of the bands that I want to catch at the festival:
Modest Mouse
The Decembrists
Passion Pit
St. Vincent
Vance Joy
Future Islands
The Gaslight Anthem
Walk the Moon
Hey Rosetta!
July Talk
Metz
Alvvays
Yukon Blonde
Broods
Viet Cong
Lowell
Just for starters.
Looking forward to this new addition to the Toronto area festival season.
