Welcome

To River Valley and Field – home to many fine neighbours, good people, and Fishers’ Paradise – home of River & Sky.

Welcome to R&S 2019. We’ve assembled a great team and an amazing lineup. I really hope you enjoy your weekend. I am not sure how many R&S’ I have left in me so I want to thank all who have volunteered, played R&S, crafted and cooked, sat on our board, partnered and sponsored and funded us, helped to spread the word, purchased passes and made donations and provided key essential services.

we still have. The time is now for us to be individual difference makers and constructively push an earth-friendly agenda forward.

Your positive feedback on what we do and how we do it has been the motivating force to continue on despite many challenges.

Sail, Northern Credit Union, High Road Records and Long & McQuade have all helped R&S. Each of these sponsors knows the power of Nature, Community, and Music and I am happy to welcome them (back) to R&S. A special shout out to Max at Northern Lights Festival Boréal for sharing resources and knowledge.

And thanks to Autumnwood Lifestyles for setting us up with office and hall space.

Big thanks go out the Chris and Julie and their family and friends for being such ardent supporters and fans of the festival.

Historically, festivals have been used to mark important calendar events, like harvests and solstices.

Many modern festivals have taken on the corporate reflection of modern society. At R&S we are really celebrating Nature. This past Winter, Nature walloped Fishers’ Paradise but good – have a look at the shoreline. Forest fires last year, record snow falls, and flooding this year are indications that climate change is beginning to really affect life. I know that climate change is affecting the wellbeing of many – physically, mentally, and spiritually. I hope that you will leave R&S renewed and recharged to fight the good fight, and collectively make change, and work to preserve and improve what

This includes your vote. On that note, we are projecting that we may lose access to $20,000 in funding next year. So, in 2019, we have worked hard to develop meaningful sponsorships and we will need to continue to find new allies.

We also hope to offset lost funding through increased individual support and giving. And so with R&S 2019 we are launching a Patreon.com account; Ella and Michael are nearing completion of the R&S book fundraising project; and as usual we are selling t-shirts, posters, and pins.

Thanks to all our 2019 artists for travelling to a small, remote festival to help us remember that we should have things to celebrate in life. Big love to Lara, Sebastian and Quinn – none of this is/was possible without your love, support and hard work.

Who we are R&S IS ART IN THE WOODS

We’re a grassroots not-for-profit arts organization that is heading into our 11th festival. We are member driven, relying on the relentless energy and diverse talents of our member-volunteers to make R&S happen. We are makers – using natural elements like clay, sand, wood, and straw found here or recycled materials to build ovens, yurts, saunas and t-shirts. We are presenters of emerging and post-emerging music.

Our vision To become a leader, early adopter, and innovator in presenting the arts sustainably.

Our mission To present regional, national, and international emerging indie, folk and roots music while showcasing a community-based, simple, and sustainable way of life.

Presenting arts in support of sustainability Reducing waste with plates – in 2017, we introduced 500 reusable blue enamel camping plates for our food vendors to use, and last year we enhanced our dish washing.

You can also bring your own, and wash them in our dish pit. We also encourage you to bring your own cup for coffee or kombucha.

Recycling/Composting Each year, our volunteers comb through bags of trash to make sure everything that can be is recycled. Please help us by sorting your trash into one of four bins: waste; paper; plastics & metals; and alcohol containers. Last year’s empties brought the festival $1,300 in returns!

Last year we introduced composting stations as another way to reduce waste.

Only food matter please!

Volunteer buffs Made in Sudbury by April and Marja at their Sew Local Stitch Lounge with the help of R&S Volunteers, using Canadian made fabrics.

Merch We have a mix of upcycled and new shirts – printed this year using Beam Paints made on Manitoulin Island with local plants and minerals.

R&S would like to thank Matti Lehtelä for this year’s design and Augusta Veno for leading the screening efforts. Also shout-out to Hannah Poole for last year’s red team shirts commemorating 10 years – there are still a few left if you want to join team R&S!

Who we are...

New this year Glampers Last year we built three Glamping sites featuring prospector tents made by Sewn Home in Timmins, and purchased by the festival thanks to Celebrate Ontario funding. This year our three Canada Summer Jobs staff worked to put the finishing touches on them. The prospector tents will also generate revenue through rentals ($95/night) throughout the year for both River & Sky and Fishers’ Paradise.

Celebrating a decade+ of R&S with a book Ella Myers and Michael Scherzinger are spearheading work on a bound book to celebrate the history of R&S. Meet the dream team in the Merch tent on Friday & Saturday 15:00 – 18:00.

They’ll be collecting pre-orders and some favourite moments from you. To contact them: book@riverandsky.ca

Day dancing to DJs In the past, the River & Sky Dance Party Stage only started kicking at 2:00. This year, the folks who like their sleep can also sink into the grooves with day dancing to DJs – music starts mid-afternoon on Friday & Saturday (as well as from 1:00 and beyond for the late night crew).

With afternoons and late nights, we have way more DJs – 16 altogether! Take the Chaganooga Choo Choo trail & follow the glowing mushrooms to the Dance Party Stage. To find out more look for the ‘Zine!

Where the Music Begins

Art in the woods Installations

Heartworks + R&S volunteers As a collective, Heartworks has taken a pause.

However, some Heartworks members, including Kim Schmidt have worked with R&S volunteers to recreate, and in some cases reimagine many of the Heartworks favourite installations such as the mushroom path, the nest, and other magic. It wouldn’t be R&S without the inspiration of this group.

Studio Nude Beach

NORTH BAY, ON

TETRA

During the day, Tetra reflects and refracts the immediate environment. At night, Tetra becomes animated with abstract video projections, mirrored and refracted within the structure’s walls, giving participants the chance to fully immerse themselves into a calming yet mind melting experience. Studio Nude Beach is a new artist collective made up of Hannah Smith, Allison Roberts, Eric Robillard & Ben Herman.

Eric RobiIlard

NORTH BAY, ON

KALEIDA

Working alongside his father Daniel, installation artist and filmmaker Eric Robillard created Kaleida, a kaleidoscope that can be interacted with during the day using various props, as well as at night when it becomes an immersive psychedelic light show. It has been featured at various festivals, such as Ice Follies 2018, Hillside 2018 & 2019, and here at R&S in 2018.

Paul Gould + Noah Hepburn TORONTO, ON FAMILY OF RACCOONS

For Paul Gould & Noah Hepbourn, the raccoon symbolizes “resourcefulness and adaptability, especially in an urban environment, where our gratitude towards nature is fading.” With this installation, a family of raccoons have gathered in a nearby forest to observe the festivities and wish to light the path for those looking for their own inspiration.

Alexandre Aimée

STURGEON FALLS, ON

MAIN STAGE

Métis Franco-Ontarian artist Alexandre Aimée works predominantly with recycled material, dead flowers and acrylic paint.

Q&A

At River and Sky, we take care of each other and watch out for one another.

Try not to overindulge and mind the sun. Stay hydrated. And of course, dance until we can’t anymore!

Fireworks? No. Never. Ever. In fact, we will ask you to leave if you set them off. So please don’t put us, or yourself, in that situation.

They are not safe with so many people around.

Flares? See above.

Burnt your hand, cut your toe or too much sun? LT Event Medical Services are bringing a full range of supplies, an air-conditioned trailer, and golf cart ambulance to help out with any medical mishaps on site. They will also have an AED with them What if I need a hospital?

The closest emergency room is at the West Nipissing Health Centre, 145 Main Street, Sturgeon Falls. Turn right when you leave the property and follow the signs to Sturgeon – it is about a 25 minute drive.

What has “leaves of three” and you’re advised “to let it be”?

Poison ivy. Keep an eye out for this reactive weed and stick to the trails. There is a patch along the trail near Family Camping 2 that is marked with signage.

Wash your skin with soap and a washcloth if you fear that you’ve brushed up against it.

Getting rid of the oil will greatly reduce your chances of a reaction.

Yikes – Is that thunder and lightning?

Follow the 30-30 rule. If there are 30 seconds or less between thunder and lightning take cover in a vehicle, building or low-lying area away from tall trees. Wait until 30 minutes after the last thunder before venturing out. Stay low but never lie down on the ground and keep both feet together to minimize ground current.

Can I start a fire? Fires need to be contained in fire pits. Wood will be provided in drop off areas. MNR fire bans apply to R&S. If you’re planning on cooking, bring a stove.

Be sure to have water standing by if you need to douse the fire in an emergency.

Be careful lighting your camp stove! Always read the instructions that come with your stove and be sure to keep away from the campfire and even full sunlight to prevent explosions. Always securely tighten the fuel tank cap and remove anything that might be flamable from the area. Remember to inspect any hoses or other pieces to prevent dangers from leaks.

Getting around at R&S: When walking, protect and cover your toes. Do not walk the trails or around your campsite in flip flops, as toe injuries from pointy little sticks are common.

A flashlight helps in making your way to the late night campfire stage at the beach.

Bicycles: If you’ve brought your bike, enjoy!

Remember to use your bell when navigating the pathways around pedestrians. If the bike doesn’t belong to you – do not take it. There are a limited number of clearly marked bikes for volunteers to do their work. Bikes are not communal property at the festival.

Can I swim and sauna? Go for it at your own risk and never under the influence!

Note: Our beach area is unsupervised and the Sturgeon River has a current. This year the current is strong due to the higher water levels. You can also feel free to jump in the Oxbow beside Main Stage too. Children must be supervised by their parents in the water and sauna at all times.

I am so thirsty… There is free drinking water available via a fill station near the Main Stage. Bring containers.

19

What about smoking? Cannabis and tobacco are treated the same – don’t smoke by the food vendors, near children, or in the middle of a packed crowd. Clean your butts! Butts don’t biodegrade and we want to keep them out of the river & land. Look for the pots to put them in.

We will recycle then later with TerraCycle.

Woof/neigh? Dogs are awesome but need to be on a leash. Please don’t bring them directly in front of the Main Stage – it is a stressful place for dogs. Same applies to horses.

Where can I wash up? If you want to freshen up, go for a swim and sauna.

Please use only biodegradable soap & shampoo with no phosphates in the river!

Is this a BYOB festival? Open alcohol at campsite is OK. If you are transporting from one campsite to another, please ensure containers remain closed and that alcohol is contained in a carrying device. And please, no glass, ever!

What do I do with my garbage?

Look to sort your stash before you trash – paper recyclables, alcohol containers, and regular waste. Please don’t hang onto your garbage until the end as it is no fun sorting at that point. Your empties go toward keeping R&S rolling – last year we raised more than $1,300!

Sauna etiquette: Make space for everyone on the benches. Stay hydrated and take breaks.

No sleeping in the sauna. Don’t pour beer or other weird stuff on the rocks. Call out & kick out creeps – step up, and be a pal for someone who seems uncomfortable. Nudity or seminudity isn’t an invitation to anything – remember ‘no’ always means ‘no’.

Bullseye bite!? If you have a bulls-eye shaped bite or other strange rash from a bite get it checked out by a medical professional. Better yet, wear light coloured pants tucked into socks and long sleeves with DEET bug repellent to protect from ticks and other bugs. If bitten, never squeeze a tick, but pull out slowly near head with tweezers (saving it for identification).

Slosh area with rubbing alcohol.

Let’s stay safe and play safe!

At R&S, it is our collective responsibility to keep everyone safe. Again we’ve partnered with Réseau ACCESS Network, an organization in Sudbury that is dedicated to promoting wellness, harm and risk reduction, and education. ACCESS staff have offered training for interested R&S volunteers on the use of nasal spray Naloxone kits, which are used to temporarily reverse an opioid overdose.

Every trained participant was given a personal Naloxone kit. We hope that these kits will not be used and that no one puts their life in danger.

A reminder that opioids and alcohol are a particularly dangerous combination.

Take action right away should a friend exhibit the following symptoms: •

Can’t stay awake, walk, or talk

•

Are breathing slowly, or not at all

•

Have a limp body

•

Not responding to noise, or knuckles being rubbed hard on their breastbone

•

Snoring or gurgling sounds

•

Pale or blue skin – especially on their nail beds and lips – and they feel cold

•

Tiny pupils (pinpoint), or their eyes are rolled back

•

Vomiting

We hope that everyone stays safe and enjoys the festival.

Luna Li TORONTO, ON Luna Li has been called the “garage rock princess of Toronto,” performing with her 4-piece femmecentric band at shows and festivals across North America. Luna brings a unique sound; playing both distorted guitar and violin with a looping pedal that results in a “dreamy romp through some beautiful melodies and heartbreaking lyrics” (Deli Magazine).

Orville Peck TORONTO, ON Who’s that masked man with the face tassels?

Orville Peck’s true identity is not known – although he appears to be a cowboy, sometimes living in Toronto, and his new debut album explores the role of the outsider and the internally brokenhearted. The sound? Gravelly country, infused with some compelling Twin Peaks-style bass.

Catch this self-described “psychedelic outlaw cowboy” at the campfire stage Thursday night!

Little Mazarn AUSTIN, TX Little Mazarn, the stage name for Lindsey Verrill, is named after what she calls “an unromantic river” in Arkansas. On her self-titled debut album, she plays a dreamy slowly plucked banjo and in a lilting warble, sings “about precious things, boring things, nature and the garbage that is humanity.”

Named as one of the Toronto musicians to watch in 2018 (NOW magazine), their sound is like Madonna, the Bangles, or Cyndi Lauper.

Welcome back to R&S Maddy!

BEACH STAGE

Little Junior TORONTO, ON Little Junior are an unapologetically upbeat alternative power pop foursome from Toronto. Pop music has had a profound effect on Little Junior, who absolutely love Carly Rae Jepsen, and have been playing together since middle school.

BEACH STAGE

Matt Thibeault NORTH BAY, ON Matt Thibeault continues pushing boundaries since the release of his NOMFA award-winning debut album, Cycles, in 2015.

Jaunt TORONTO, ON Jaunt has been dubbed “Ontario’s Rising Pop Renegades” by Exclaim! for their anti-establishment vibe and the way they slip back and forth between pop, jazz, and R&B. Clash Magazine described their debut EP as combining “infectious pop hooks, off-kilter melody andwavy, synth-laden guitars.”

POTTERY

U.S. Girls. TORONTO, ON Over the pulsating reverberations of disco-era beats and smarmy synthesizers, U.S. Girls’ vocals are strikingly fresh and Debbie Harry-inspired, masking a unified political and personal agenda about the state of working women. The music is hooky, atmospheric, and playful.

23:30

BEACH STAGE

Lovers Touch TORONTO, ON Lovers Touch has one hand in the past and one reaching into the future. Making music that feels like warm summer nights and cold beer, they go for broke in every way, trotting out pulsating synthesizers, playful rhythm guitar and drum machine loops. Get your day-glo jumpsuits and headbands ready – they’ll bring R&S back to the 1980s with style.

00:30

Tommy & the Commies SUDBURY, ON Tommy & the Commies have been exploring beyond the crater they call home in Sudbury; the US, Europe, Puerto Rico, Turkey, and more, impressing audiences with their debut album described by Louder Than War’s website as “a riotous blast of back-to-the-70s mod punk full of swagger and confidence.” They’re coming to R&S via Cali, not bad for northern punks.

Gladys Lazer NEW YORK CITY, NY Gal Lazer played at R&S in 2016. This year he brings his project – Gladys Lazer – percussive music flowing from a nomadic lifestyle. His debut EP was recorded in various countries between tours, featuring eight percussive pathways: sonic vignettes that combust breakbeat, post-jazz, krautrock, and trip-hop in a cycle of pastoral day-dreamscapes and ragged electronic dirges. We’re stoked to have him back!

15:30

Fucked Up TORONTO, ON Fucked Up is at the forefront of a revolution that kicks off in the heart, travels to the brain like a viral infection and sends signals to the feet to jump, kick and thrash, while burning down every concept written about punk.

Their newest release focuses on what happens to aging hipsters and sore scene kids when adulthood rears its ugly head.

MONTRÉAL, QC

Yamantaka // Sonic Titan is a Noh-Wave prog collective, a black-and-white (and sometimes red) theatre company, an operatic psych cult, and the speculative prophets of humanity’s impending doom. Above it all, though, they’re a thunderous rock band, and on their third album, DIRT, they’re the heaviest they’ve ever been.

22:00

BEACH STAGE

Mdou Moctar AGADEZ, NIGER Mdou Moctar is from Agadez, Niger. Secular music was prohibited in his village growing up, so Mdou taught himself to play on a homemade guitar. He was one of the first musicians to perform modern electronic adaptations of Tuareg guitar music – a type of Saharan music that takes the electric guitar into trance territory with its frenetic and hypnotizingly repetitious guitar lines.

MAIN STAGE

Mother Tongues TORONTO, ON Mother Tongues aren’t humans, but wizards surfing in outer space. They descended upon Toronto and began to shred. They shredded with Lido. They shredded with Hooded Fang. They shredded on the rooftops. Nothing could quench their thirst for magic. And now, they’re on a quest for the purest grooves, driven by the legends of the Magic Forest in the north.

20:00

MAIN STAGE

DOOMSQUAD TORONTO, ON Sibling trio DOOMSQUAD released their album on May 10. The record is steeped in the influences of acid house, West African disco, spiritual jazz, NYC no-wave and new-age ambient music. On 2016’s Total Time, the trio issued invitations to free your mind, body and spirit over dirty bass-lines and hypnotic disco jams.

BEACH STAGE

Bad Waitress TORONTO, ON Bad Waitress is a rowdy four piece punk rock outfit from Toronto who strive to create empowering and inclusive environments for everyone around them, just like we do here at R&S. Their heavy licks and intense energy help contribute to their wildly fun brand of punk rock that stays true to who they are.

00:00

BEACH STAGE

Dirty Princes SUDBURY, ON Dirty Princes are more of a rock and roll performance-art-piece than an actual band.

The 5-piece Sudbury act is regarded for their bombastic and almost dangerous live shows.

They’re releasing their new EP at R&S. It’s best to wear knee pads and ear plugs when listening to them; and get ready for some candy.

(Note: hearing protection is encouraged).

Despite now having an explosive live set including multiple members, Jacobs remains a one-man band in the recording studio as he writes, performs, records, and mixes his own music, resulting in a captivating, easy-listening, and untamed combination of lo-fi garage rock and psychedelia.

Coy Haste with Oreku + Spookyfish + Legs Florentine TORONTO, ON Coy Haste is the alter-ego of Brad Weber, the percussive wunderkind sometimes seen driving the rhythms of Caribou and Pick a Piper, who played an unforgettable Dance Party set at last year’s R&S. The Toronto-based producer of experimental electronic music travels on rhythmic and melodic planes with excursions into the ambient.

During his time in the bands Ponctuation, Call Me Poupée, and Érotique PQ, he composed and recorded many love songs between 2008 and 2016, because sometimes a heartbreak takes time to heal. Weatherman, the first result of his collaboration with 15 other musicians, was later re-edited.
