The luminous festival of wonders that is POP Montréal (Montréal itself is basically a wonder in the first place) has added some new names to its 2015 fest lineup. From September 16-20, attendees will be able to breathe the same musical air as Tim Hecker, Jerusalem in My Heart, Arto Lindsay, Cannibal Ox, Giorgio Moroder, Babes in Toyland, Vieux Farka Touré, Uncle Acid & The Deadbeats, Suuns, Micachu & The Shapes, Fanfaraï, The Barr Brothers, The Besnard Lakes, Viet Cong, Braids, and loads of other artists.
Just shy of 400 total artists, in fact. Basically, this thing takes over the city of Montréal like a rainbow of musical events with a pot of gold hidden somewhere mysterious within the city.
