How about that Kanye West? He says something really important<\/a> is going to happen on June 18. We’re hoping it’s similar to when another great entertainer, WWE’s Kane, helped the world understand him better by explaining the relevance<\/a> of May 19 to his life.<\/p>\n

But on to better things. Like our favourite people, the Polaris People.<\/p>\n

Let’s see what some of them have been up to recently.<\/p>\n

Fans of whattheheckwasthatnoise? are celebrating 2011 Short Lister Colin Stetson<\/strong>‘s newest release, New History Warfare Vol. 3: To See More Light<\/em>. Jury member Stephen Carlick wrote<\/a> a Polaris Pick about the album this week, and that was just one of many investigations into Stetson’s fascinating honks and skronks. Rolling Stone<\/a>, Exclaim<\/a>, Consequence Of Sound<\/a> and Seven Days<\/a>, \u00ab\u00a0Vermont’s Independent Voice,\u00a0\u00bb were among the outlets to speak with Stetson recently.<\/p>\n

Braids<\/strong>, another 2011 Short List act, appear ready to move into that deluxe apartment in the sky with their latest news<\/p>\n

We’re very proud and happy to announce we’re releasing our next record on @arbutusrecords<\/a> – US @fulltimehobby<\/a> EU\/UK @flemisheye<\/a> CDN<\/p>\n
