N2M2L @ Northern Lights Festival Boréal: Canadian Singer-Songwriter Challenge
10 songwriters. 5 demos. 3 days… 1 festival.
For this year’s Canadian Songwriter Challenge, MFM is partnering with the Northern Lights Festival Boréal (NLFB), the Near North Mobile Media Lab (N2M2L) and l’Association des professionels de la chanson et de la musique (APCM) to bring you a co-writing and demo recording adventure on the beautiful shores of Sudbury’s Ramsey Lake, July 8-10.
10 Northern Ontario-based participants will be chosen to take part the free event where they will be paired up, and, with the help of mentors Fred Squire, Serge Brideau (Les Hôtesses d’Hilaire), and ShoShona Kish (Digging Roots), be challenged to write and record a brand new song in the span of the festival’s 3 days. The whole weekend wraps up with a demo listening party aboard the famed Cortina Cruise boat.
