Saturday night at NXNE is always a panicked evening of venue hopping as festival goers attempt to see as many acts as possible and not spend too long in a cab or waiting for a streetcar.

Trisha Evelyn probably writes more than she sleeps. Most often a sneaky ghost blogger for both businesses and publications around Toronto, Trisha founded a writing agency that covers everything from website content to rock band bios. Writing in many difference voices has kept Trisha on her toes, but her most natural subject will always be music.
