Though October seems to have flown by, it was kind to us. Its kindness took shape in the form of mild weather, beautiful colours and even having our name stamped on the shiny new trophy for Music • Musique NB’s Champion of the Year award. And though we are now nosediving into the harsher months, we can find warmth in knowing we are just that much closer to the coming revolution.
