Where: Tapestry, 224 Augusta Ave.
From: Morocco
Genre: Rock
If you like: Red Hot Chilli Peppers
Why you should go: The beauty of a festival like NXNE is that it showcases local talent from Canada but also exposes people to a diverse mix of music from across the world. This is certainly the case with this Moroccan band as they produce songs in their mother tongue, Tamazight, and perform Amazigh rock — which has themes related to Amazigh history, values and customs.
