START YOUR WEEK RIGHT WITH THE V.I.A. WEEKLY PLAYLIST WEEK 228: Copilots

With over 36,000+ artists, boasting more than 150,000+ tracks, the CBC Music/CBC Radio 3 web site is the absolute ultimate authority, and the home, of independent music in Canada. With that massive library along with tools for members (free to join!), we’re taking advantage of what they’ve set up by bringing you a fresh batch of music every week featuring local groups who have tracks (entire albums, even!) on the R3 site.

		SCENE AND HEARD showcases the independent music scene here in Vancouver.

The Vancouver International Jazz Festival is upon us once again and there are so many shows happening in the city (including free ones! - check out the schedule). Royal Canoe is coming back to town, performing at Fortune with Vancouver's own Copilots opening up the night. We asked Skye Brooks and the rest of the Copilots gang to create this week's playlist, which you can hear by clicking the images below. And then head over to the Jazz Fest site and get your tickets for this sure to be awesome show!
