Ottawa Explosion Weekend Announces More Bands: Ton of Local Acts

Ottawa-Explosion-2014

One of the greatest weekends in Ottawa just got even better! Ottawa Explosion Weekend (June 12-15) just announced another round of bands coming to rock the capital, and many of them won’t have to travel to0 far.

Of the many great acts added, some of my favourite local acts such as Average Times, Blue Angel, Roberta Bondar, and The Yips! Also added are some sweet bands traveling from really far such as Dad Jokes from New Zealand and Latex Squad from Germany. Below is the list of the newest additions, and the full list can be found here. Festival passes are on sale for $60 by email transfer or $62 through paypal to ottawaexplosion@gmail.com
