Happy Hipster Holidays ! POP MTL Is Coming to Town!

Interview by Alain Brunet

Additional Information

Beverly Glenn-Copeland, Juana Molina, Patrick Watson, The Dears, Barr Brothers or The Fleshtones are the “well known” artists among the 150 sets that will be presented at the 23rd Pop Montreal festival, from September 25th to 29th – Wednesday to Sunday. And that’s saying a lot! In fact, what is so cool again with POP MTL is not about comford food but about discovering the live sets of so many underground artists, from the local scene to the international scene. Presented in a lot of venues including unusual ones, those artists may remain confidential but there are always some who will reach a much bigger status for the best reasons. Most definitely, POP Montreal is staying the course and submitting the results of its researches over 12 months. “This is Hipster Christmas time ! ” laughes Dan Seligman founder and still main artistic seeker of this great Montreal happening. So let’s get his picks before customising our schedules! Alain Brunet met him for PAN M 350, they spoke English and French. Montreal way, of course.
