We all know it’s voting season for our neighbours down south, but you can also exercise your right (if you so choose) by supporting some of Ottawa’s best acts for a session with CBC Bandwidth. This is great because it’s Ontario-wide and could provide one our city’s many talented artists/band with a chance to get a bit more exposure. Loon Choir, Three Little Birds and The Musettes are a few acts from Ottawa who have made it to the final round, with stiff competition. Here’s a rundown of that list from the Bandwidth blog:
