Sloan Added as Hillside Festival Headliner
By: Josiah Hughes
Nearly three decades in, Guelph, ON's Hillside Festival continues to be one of Canada's most exciting and unique summer events. This year, the festival runs from July 22 to 24, and as reported, it includes an enormous roster. We didn't think it could get any bigger, in fact, but the organizers have surprised us with the news that Sloan have been added as a headliner.
The legendary Canadian rockers are already having a huge year as they celebrate their 20th anniversary and the release of their tenth album The Double Cross. Now, they'll add to their accomplishments as they close out the Hillside Festival with the headlining slot on July 24.
