We pretty much kept to the main stage and watched some of our all time favourites, and some heavy hitters, knock it out of the park. Check out our photos and stay […]

Riot Fest Toronto 2015 Day 2: Photo Review

September 22nd, 2015 by Trish Cassling

What a spectacular day of music! The sun was out, the mud from day 1 was cleared up, the music was loud and everyone was all in. My biggest regret from Riot Fest Day 2… missing Andrew W.K But, the rest of the day was awesome, and to prove it I’m going to let the […]

High Valley Boots and Hearts 2015She’s With Me: High Valley at Boots & Hearts 2015!

August 14th, 2015 by Joshua Murray

High Valley loves Boots & Hearts. It’s the only possible explanation for their appearance 4 years in a row – and they pretty much told us as much when we sat down with them after their Friday set on the main stage. Brad and Curtis Rempel gave a crowd all the energy they had as […]

For the third year in a row, Stuart and Jenna Walker were up on the Boots & Hearts stage doing their thing in front of the crowd. But this year was different. In 2013 The Reklaws won the Emerging Artist Showcase and in 2014 they returned to play for the crowd… but in 2015 they […]

Boys of Summer: Emerson Drive, Wes Mack, and Dylan Scott at Boots & Hearts 2015!

August 12th, 2015 by Joshua Murray

There’s no argument about the talent that showed up at Boots & Hearts 2015… and while we have put a lot of focus on the ladies leading up to, during, and following the festival, the men didn’t disappoint. Between 2 stages and 2 days, Dylan Scott, Wes Mack, and Emerson Drive played their sets for […]

August 10th, 2015 by Joshua Murray

A year ago I sat on a bale of straw backstage with Trinity Bradshaw after she competed in the Emerging Artist Showcase… not long after that she was announced as a finalist, and the next day she won the whole damn thing. Fast forward 12 months and Trinity has a great single, performed on Canada […]

With the sun still shining, the headline crowd rolling in, and a blue solo cup in his hand, Thomas Rhett took advantage of his time on the Boots & Hearts main stage by putting on a show that definitely made him some new fans. After having seen Thomas play an acoustic show at Toronto’s Rock […]

Florida Georgia Line Boots and Hearts 2015Anything Goes: Florida Georgia Line at Boots & Hearts 2015!

August 10th, 2015 by Joshua Murray

On a Sunday night, after 4 days of country music and beer and dancing and sweat and fried food and new friends and old friends, Florida Georgia Line took over the Boots & Hearts main stage and brought the energy we expected… There was perhaps more anticipation for the start of this set than any […]

Saturday at Boots & Hearts we got a double shot of Canadian country music talent when Chad Brownlee and Dallas Smith took over the main stage back-to-back. First up was Chad Brownlee, who we just saw at the Blue Jays pre-game – and who we are happy we saw again. This guy puts on a […]
