Big news today as CMW 2015 reveals an impressive spread of artists for the festival’s 33rd year. Check out every act set to take the stage in Toronto, Ontario from May 1-May 11.
Canadian Music Week has just released their full 2015 lineup for the 10-day festival. Since its start in 1981, CMW has grown into one of Canada’s largest, most talked-about music showcases. Past headliners include Slash, Public Enemy, and Wolfmother. For 2015, CMW has once again not failed to impress.
Among the massive amount of talent set to perform in Toronto this year is Faith No More, whose recent announcements about a new North American tour and a new album in the works have brought on a ton of hype among fans. Other noteworthy acts include The Jesus and Mary Chain, who are currently celebrating the 30th anniversary of their album Psychocandy, and Canadian native Kiesza, who, in addition to an explosive solo career, has been making major noise through recent projects with Jack Ü, Gorgon City, and Loreen just to name a few.
