Now as the festival is going into its 8th year of production the number of performances has increased to over 15 that span various musical genres and styles. The Festival Committee plans on selling over 1000 tickets this year and strives to find innovative ways to promote the wonders of rural Saskatchewan and the incredible talent pool that they have lined up this year.

Desert Island Classic

Regina, Saskatchewan’s post-rock group Desert Island Classic takes a tried and true pop rock formula and infuses it with the intense musicianship of members whose backgrounds lie in the hardcore, metal and indie genres.

A relatively new band, its inaugural 2015 year together saw the guys play their first-ever gig to a crowd of over 700 with appearances at the Gateway Music Festival, Trifecta Music Festival and SaskTel Summer Invasion. 2016 saw the release of the new single "Too Late" on Regina's Rock Station 104.9 The Wolf, as well as consistent radio play throughout Saskatchewan. In early July the band performed for a second time at SaskTel's Summer Invasion festival, amongst a number of other gigs throughout the summer. Finishing off 2016, Desert Island Classic looks to get back into the studio to write and record its second full-length album to be released in early 2017.
