Music from Ottawa; and happening in Ottawa. Updated weekly by apt613.ca music writers.
This inaugural edition of #ottmusic weekly is a playlist of would’ve-beens: Apt613 music writers select their favourite tracks by artists whose Ottawa-Gatineau shows were cancelled in respect of COVID-19 emergency measures.
Tickets are being refunded, tours cut short, and a lot of musicians don’t know when they’ll perform next… So if you are saving money by staying in—and not everybody is—then please consider purchasing downloads and ordering merch as a direct form of support for the music makers whose work you enjoy streaming.
Updated weekly with new releases and greatest hits. Subscribe on Spotify.
