On Thursday, Jenn and I will be headed to Vancouver for New Music West, which is one of the biggest indie music festival on the west coast. Conveniently set in one of my favorite parts of the world, it should be a fantastic time with oodles of yummy new music (don’t you just love this time of year?).

If you’re going to be there (or, if you can’t make it, but still want to learn more about the 200 bands showcasing there this weekend), check out the NMW Playground, powered by us, MusicIP.

This is our second festival Playground - the first was for NEMO last year in Boston. You can learn about their Playground here, and check it out here.

For this Playground, we’ve done a couple of things differently. First, you’ll notice that when you click on the “Play” button, you’ll hear an entire song by that artist or band (instead of just a thirty second sample).

Next, click on “Venue”, which will show you the date, time, and venue of that artist’s show. Now, attendees not only have everything they need to listen to some great new music, but can also grab the necessary information to catch them live in Vancouver.

Sweeeeeet.
