Hailing from Montreal, The Dears rocketed to prominence back in the early 2000s after releasing a number of hook-heavy indie rock albums that swayed as much as they swooned. Now they’re back, with a Saskatoon ex-pat now handling bass duties no less, with a live show that’s as strong as anything you may remember. You can catch The Dears this Friday at The Broadway Theatre. Also, don’t miss Wake, Adolyne and pals ripping up the stage on Saturday, and the Girls Rock Camp All Grown Up Showcase on Sunday, both taking place at Amigos.
