Now Hear This, weekend 2, begins with an outstanding multiple bill featuring some of the most exciting early-career creative voices from the Amiskwaciy-wâskahikan (Edmonton) region. For NME, there is nothing more important than highlighting and supporting creatives from our city in the early stages of their careers. Be prepared to immerse yourself in wild and risky new ideas in music and sound performance covering a mind-blowing, awe-inspiring range of practices, and to come away inspired and ready for more – this is the newest generation of artists from your community!

And, speaking of emerging artists, if you can, why not donate to our Endowment Fund, administered by the Edmonton Community Foundation? Every cent of this fund will be used to support emerging artists!
