For this week’s Mixtape playlist, we went looking for Canadian musicians singing the “blues.” We’ve searched as far west as B.C., to find Vancouver’s Dan Mangan, and stopped by Toronto for New Country Rehab. Then onto Montreal for Leif Vollebekk and Kid Koala, and all the way east, to find Halifax’s The Modern Grass. And, we made sure, despite what the theme might suggest, that the list would be an upbeat one to help you leave the weekday “blues” behind. Have an awesome weekend, happy listening!
