Buy ticketsMoondoggy is an alternative rock band formed in 2019 in Collingwood, Ontario. The band began playing together locally, performing house parties and small shows while developing their live set and recording material independently. In 2020, Moondoggy relocated to Toronto. The move placed the band within a larger live music circuit, where they began playing regularly at DIY spaces and established venues. Over the next several years, the band focused on writing, recording, and releasing music while building an audience through consistent live performances. The band consists of members Jakob Matanowitsch (vocals, guitar), Ben Matanowitsch (saxophone, acoustic guitar), Jonny Contini (lead guitar), Victor Carrillo (drums). In 2023, Moondoggy released their debut full-length album, Mad & Noisy. The album marked the band’s first major release and reached an international audience, accumulating over 14 million streams worldwide. The band followed with a second full-length album, continuing a steady release schedule and expanding their recorded catalogue. Across their first two records, Moondoggy developed a consistent working rhythm centered on collaboration and output rather than long gaps between releases. In 2026, Moondoggy undertakes their first-ever tours, with dates across the United States and Europe in support of their third album, Around The Fire. The album and tours represent the band’s first live appearances outside of Canada and mark a transition into international touring activity.Instagram | Facebook | Spotify | Apple Music•Perth, Australia trio The Stamps (Sofia Hourani, Rubina Bertolini, Scarlett Graham) make coming-of-age indie pop that’s equal parts grit and glow. Built on the raw chemistry of three best friends, their songs turn late-night feelings and half-broken moments into something urgent, melodic, and impossible to ignore. Their single "Maria", produced by Alex Burnett (Thelma Plum, Hockey Dad), shows the band at their most direct: punchy hooks, stacked harmonies, and a spark that feels both dangerous and alive. With a sound that sits between the euphoric shimmer of MUNA and the scrappy cool of Royel Otis, The Stamps are fast building a reputation for shows that are sweaty, unpolished, and electric - proof that pop can hit hard and still feel personal.Instagram | Facebook | Spotify | Apple Music
