The Montreal-based singer-songwriter breaks down her fresh double single ahead of her debut LP, Nothing Dazzled.
Pique, Ottawa’s forward-thinking music and arts festival, returns on March 7 to 8, 2025, with its biggest spring edition yet. Taking over Arts Court for two days, the festival continues its tradition of curatorial eclecticism, blending club futurism, jazz-hop, leftfield pop, experimental drag, and large-scale installations.
This year’s edition coincides with International Women’s Day, emphasizing women and gender-nonconforming artists who are pushing creative boundaries. The lineup includes international and Canadian acts such as modular synth innovator Arushi Jain, genre-melding DJ BAMBII, jazz-meets-hip-hop artist Witch Prophet, and alt-pop savant Sarah Feldman. Local talent, including FIAMMA and experimental rap duo jules filmhouse and Infatuation, will also take the stage.
Beyond performances, Pique fosters dialogue through its Topique Forum, a space for artist talks and workshops focused on equitable music futures. With a pay-what-you-can model and all-ages access, Pique remains a vital incubator for artistic experimentation and community engagement.
