Summer is a great time to discover new music. Whether you are sitting at a patio or on your way to the beach, there is a good chance the radio is on. Another bonus of the sunny weather – which Vancouver is finally getting, is the outdoor shows that the season brings us. It is a great way to be introduced to local talent, and an even better way to spend an afternoon.
