Princess Towers
Princess Towers take their name from a 1970s apartment building widely derided as Kingston’s biggest eyesore. Like their namesake, they aim to make audacious design choices and embrace the awkwardness of things in music. Their 2022 debut “Remastered in Stereo” centers on a humble cast of mundane thoughts and feelings, and presents a scale model of their playful approach to folk and country stylings. Following a release tour in fall 2022 and a soundtrack collaboration with Montreal’s Elkabong Theatre in January, construction continues in 2023 with “Freak Fairy Tales,” a new collection of songs about fantastic ordinary things. This summer, bandleader Arden Rogalsky is joined by the towering talents of Claya Way Brackenbury, Michael Broadhead, Liam Cole, and Grace Dixon.
Funeral Lakes
Funeral Lakes began in the spring of 2018, self-producing music in their apartment. After a well-received debut album and a series of EPs, Funeral Lakes has expanded their blend of shoegaze and folk, finding regular rotation on campus and community radio across Canada.
Piner
Piner is a singer-songwriter based in Kingston, Ontario, and Antigonish, Nova Scotia. At heart, she is an old soul. Piner grew up in a community rife with musicians who modeled the idea of putting thoughts to song and singing to anyone who cared to listen. One of Piner’s inspirations is her childhood neighbourhood. Growing up in the environs of Skeleton Park in Kingston, Ontario, Piner experienced the wealth that comes from community, while witnessing the reality of struggle.
Piner writes songs of empathy and understanding while stepping into the stories of others. Piner hopes that her songs will allow listeners to connect with the complexities of the greater human experience.
For physical events that happen at a specific time. For example a concert, or dance performance. If there are multiple shows, you can still duplicate your event to cover them all.
