Twitter: @PeteHatesMusic We’ve attended the last 2 Osheaga festivals in Montreal (2014 reviews, 2013 reviews), and they’ve gotten better in each year. 2015 is the 10th anniversary, and they have unveiled a fantastic line up with a few cool treats....
Osheaga 2014 Day 3: Arctic Monkeys show they deserve to be festival headliners in North America, too. The first two days of Osheaga were great. The crowd was fun, and they even had cool signs and objects. One guy had...
Last year, PeteHatesMusic attended our first Osheaga after years of neglecting it for its older brother, Lollapalooza. We enjoyed ourselves, and wrote some words on Day 1, Day 2, and Day 3 to prove it. The 2014 edition is upon...
Last year at the Osheaga festival was a blast – check out our Day 1, Day 2, and Day 3 reviews if you don’t believe me. I think the organizers have topped it this year. Check out the poster below...
Day 3: Conflicting interests – British banjos vs. British dance music Be sure to check out our cover of Friday (Day 1) and Saturday (Day 2) to see our thoughts, which are not really important, but might help you kill...

Day 1: Side by side show stealers (Vampire Weekend and Phoenix), and a one song disappointment (k-os) Osheaga had 5 stages set up in their 2013 edition, which was their first ever complete sell-out. Two of the stages are side...
…and won’t be seeing Frank Ocean or Azealia Banks – who have both dropped out of this year’s festival because of throat infections. Miguel has been added in place of Frank Ocean. To keep track of everything happening @ Osheaga follow...
Despite living a (mere) 5 hour drive away from Montreal, I have never been to the August weekend long festival that is Osheaga. Part of this is because I’ve been to Lollapalooza 4 times over the past several years, and...
Osheaga is the same weekend as Lollapalooza, which is both a gift and a curse (like my superior intelligence over you dumb readers. Wait, come back!). They managed to etch out a pretty good initial line up. But wait –...
Osheaga Announces 2013 Line Up, Didn’t Invite “Pete Sings in the Shower” Act It’s one of the best times of the year – shower time. Summer is almost here, which means summer festivals. That means right now is the time...
Osheaga 2012 Line Up Announced for Montreal Festival Osheaga, also known as “The festival with the exact same dates as Chicago’s Lollapalooza”, has announced their line up for this August 3-5. Taking place in Parc Jean-Drapeau in Montreal, the line...
