Mad Chatter with Tim Gilbertson
Hailing from Antigonish, Nova Scotia, Mad Chatter is spending the night wailing in the nightclub at the end of the universe. Their use of dance beats with some rock noise sets a different tone in our domestic indie sounds and aim to make you dance. Tim Gilbertson is a bit reminiscent of Neil Young, bringing a smoother and folkier rock set to the stage.

The Year Dolly Parton was my Mom
Montreal filmmaker Tara Johns’ debut film follows Elizabeth, a geeky girl from the Prairies, who finds out that she was adopted and decides that Dolly Parton must be her real mother. With her mom Marion following her, this coming of age tale turns into a mother-daughter film that’s poignant, funny, and Canadian in the best of ways.
