Here is some more information about the winners...

Les Handclaps

Ever wonder what the secret language of bubble gum is? Les Handclaps aren't out to enlighten anyone but they do know a secret about cacti and they're only going to share it with you if you promise to meet them on the dancefloor and learn these words: "Un, Deux, Trois, Quatre!" 

The Craft Economy

The Craft Economy were dared into bandhood by Art Brut singer Eddie Argos after he once told everyone at a show to go home and start a band. Six people took him seriously. Introducing one of the most promising new wave, post-punk boy/girl vocal bands Canada has seen in a while. Their album All On C is a tight little package.

Lucy & the Popsonics

Brazil's indie scene and festival circuit is exploding with life. Dynamic electro-rock duo Lucy and the Popsonics are similarly poised to blow up. We're lucky to have them here in Montreal, so don't miss out. Dance, sweat, rock the fuck out, then learn about Brazil's scene at POP Montreal's Symposium.
