I was really glad to see that Hey Rosetta! made it onto he short list for the Polaris Prize this year. So it was quite a treat to be able to catch them at a free show at Harbourfront Centre. I admit before the show started I was worried there weren't too many people at the Sirius Stage for the show. Not too fear by the time the band got started into "There's An Arc" there was already a good size crowd on their feet enjoying the show.

Hey Rosetta! went on to play some of my favourite tracks off the album including, "I've Been Asleep for a long, long time", "Red Heart" on which I felt the strings really sounded great this night, "Holy S**t What A Relief", and "New Goodbye"

As a big fan of the band it would have been nicer to hear more from them perhaps a lengthier show like the one they played at Lee's Palace a few months ago. In any case they are always fun to watch.

The show was recorded by the CBC and can be found and heard on the CBC radio 3 website so go check it out!
