Music for all: Wavelength Summer Thing 2025

image

The August heat was intermittently broken by the lake’s breeze as Wavelength kicked off its second day. Back for its 25th year, Trillium Park welcomes music spanning different genres and its dedicated fans. With the beautiful Toronto skyline as the backdrop and planes taking off and landing overhead, we were ushered in for a lovely night ahead. Reggae music played on vinyl welcomed audience members in between sets, which felt very cool on a hot day. 

Sunday’s lineup included: Baby O, Le Ren, Ace of Wands, Finom and Charlotte Cornfield. All who are amazing songwriters and performers in their own badass way, each artist deserves a listen.

Baby O

Baby O

For fans of rock music, Baby O, and Ace of Wands should be added to your music roster. Both acts brought in such high energy and just proved to us that rock and roll never died, it just moved to Canada and is thriving.

Charlotte Cornfield

Le Ren and Charlotte Cornfield are perfect for those who love folk and easy listening music; both feel like a nice hug after a long day. Last but certainly not least, Chicago duo Finom are perfect for the indie/alternative fan. They, along with everyone else on the lineup, are so cool, and I am in awe of their talents.

Ace of Wands

 

Wavelength has proven to be a quintessential piece in Toronto’s extensive music scene and making music easily accessible for show goers of all ages. Events like these are so important and are needed to keep our ever-growing music scene alive for years to come. Having an event like this in such an open space is also so nice, as those passing through can stop and listen as they walk through.  Seeing the audience slowly grow as the evening went on and them being so attentive, captivated by all the performers, not to mention seeing other artists in the audience supporting their friends – it warms the heart. 

Here’s to many years of Wavelength! I wonder who will be on the lineup next year…

Le Ren
