Just a quick note to let you know that after another successful year, we have set the dates for Coldsnap 2014. You can expect musicians, workshops and more from January 24 to February 1.

Once again, thank you to all our sponsors, supporters and vounteers who keep on making Coldsnap such a great event. It would be literally impossible to do this without you.

If you’d like to be a part of Coldsnap 2014, here’s where to go:

• Sponsor the festival
• Perform at the festival
• Volunteer with the festival

Make sure to stay tuned to our Twitter and Facebook pages for all the latest updates.

Coldsnap 2013 may be over, but Coldsnap artists keep on going. First off, congratulations to Hey Ocean and Don Amero for their Juno nods (Hey Ocean’s up for “Breakthrough Group of the Year” and Amero’s in the category “Aboriginal Recording of the Year.”) Meanwhile, CBC Music is holding a search to find Canada’s Best New Artist and a few of our local talents are in the running. You can vote for Rosewood’s Diary, King Crow & the Ladies From Hell, or Shred Kelly by heading over to the northern B.C. branch of the Searchlight contest.

Congratulations to all our artists’ continued success.
