Then There was Toronto

On the other hand, Toronto, another place in Canada, is home to the Canadian Music Week (CMW) and NXNE (North by Northeast) music festivals. North by Northeast is based on the more popular SXSW festival in Austin, Texa . The city is also home to indie record label Arts & Crafts and the now defunct Three Gut Records. The awareness of the Toronto indie scene is being publicized by websites such as Toronto Music Scene and the like sites. Toronto is also the hometown of veteran rock legend, Neil Young. Dan Smith of Caribou/Manitoba is also from nearby Dundas, Ontario.
