Lots to like in this year's Wayhome line-up!

After a couple of mind-bending 360-degree YouTube videos, the actual line-up for this summer's Wayhome Music & Arts Festival has been unveiled. The festival takes place in Oro-Medonte Ontario on July 22, 23 and 24 and tickets go on sale February 16. Last year's fest got overwhelmingly positive reviews. I hope to be there this year to capture and share the bands and the experience.

As the headline reads, there's lots to like in this year's line-up. Here are a bunch of the bands that I'll be looking the most forward to seeing, starting from the top. As usual, I expect to make some great new discoveries further down the list. I've helpfully linked to my pics of any of the bands I've shot before.

The Killers "All These Things That I've Done"

M83 "Midnight City"

Haim "Don't Save Me"

Song from Dan Auerbach's The Arcs called Stay In My Corner

The Black Keys' Dan Auerbach promised a "weird" album from his side project The Arcs. Their album Yours, Dreamily, comes out September 4 but we get to hear the laid back, retro sounding "Stay In My Corner" now. Doesn't sound too weird to me, but what the what.
