NxEW

If you're a fan of music in Canada you've probably had difficulty at times scrolling from sea to shining sea in order to be a part of the scenes that lay scattered across our great land. That was of course before the emergence of NxEW (you guessed it, North by East West). This "geographically impossible blog for a geographically impossible country" is something like the BSS of blogs; that is to say it is a collective of bloggers who each claim to be involved in their local scene and all contribute to the same source in order to shine multiple spotlights on Canadian music. It is a daunting task and my thanks to Justin Beach (Editor/Producer of NxEW) for taking it on and allowing me to join as a contributor.

Not to worry - Vernacular will endure, but some select posts from here may worm their way onto NxEW as well. All in all it should be a win-win for the who's who. (huh?)
