A lot of attention was focused on Lollapalooza over the weekend, but Montreal was throwing down the music gauntlet as well, bringing Beck, New Order, the Cure, Vampire Weekend, Phoenix, and others to the French-Canadian city for their annual Osheaga Festival.
Though the lineup ran pretty deep, the unquestioned highlight has already emerged, and it’s an ampersand lover’s dream: Tegan & Sara joining Macklemore & Ryan Lewis on stage to perform the Seattle rapper’s equality anthem “Same Love.”
Every performance of this song is pretty special, but having the Calgary-born Quins up there to add their own sound and personal touch to it sends it off the charts.
Go Canada!
