Hey, have you ever thought to yourself: “It’s Saturday, and I feel like some local culture, awesome food, and free music”? Are you sick of sitting around your apartment thinking about how you’re slowly roasting? Do you hanker to see some music and entertainment that is too often overlooked by the other summer festivals?

If so, The Stormalongs, Toronto’s most rocking of indie rock bands, have got an event for you.

We have been invited once again to play at The New Bloor Festival, on Saturday July 24th, 2010. This is an annual family-style street festival, organized by the Bloordale BIA. We played the event last year when it was known as the BIG Festival, and our set was caught in the rain (which we documented in the ‘Watersong’ video that you can see here). But we played anyway, braving the possibility of electrocution in order to bring our music to the good people of Toronto.

This year we will be performing at 5 PM on the Margueretta Street Stage.

Not sure where that is? Check out the event map below, or go on their website (www.newbloorfestival.com) to see the full schedule of events.

There are many cool acts performing this year, all of the entertainment at the festival is free, and it’s a great event to help support the Bloordale community in general. Maybe we’ll even play songs from our upcoming album 2nd, ‘Raise Up Your Head’! Two things that go well together: new music and food eaten while standing.

And since you’re alreading reading our website, jump over to the ‘Single’ page and download our new digital single ‘Cadence’ b/w ‘Equinox’ for free, with some beautiful artwork. If you like the songs, send ‘em to your friends!
