Ahead of Hozier taking to the Sommo Festival mainstage on Day 2, the Nova 7 stage had to be closed out first.

While we were able to capture a few snaps of PVRIS's main stage performance, the rain started to fall and only picked up pace, so we retreated back to the safety of the Media Tent to dry out our gear and listen to the remainder of the set. PVRIS (aka Lyndsey Gunn) brought a… Read More

It's funny what it takes sometimes to catch a band. Sometimes it's happenstance, other times it's a planned outing, and then sometimes the universe steps in, and with a last-minute schedule change, you get to see a local band on a stage out of province.
