Canadian music festival season heats up with cool T-shirts for charity


The music festival season is heating up in Canada.  Designer Jeremy Laing has teaming up with Toronto record label Arts and Crafts, along with other visual artists to produce a collection of T-shirts inspired by Canadian groups like Feist, Broken Social Scene and Dan Mangan.  While everyone has their favorite T-shirts, Feist handpicked Sojourner Truth Parsons to create a design representing their music.  The result is a collection of odd looking humanoids.   If you're not familiar, it makes you want to check out Feist.

T-shirts go on sale today (May 7, 2013) for $75 with all proceeds going to the MusicCounts charity which supports musical education across Canada.  (Toronto Life)

I don't see nearly enough people from the music industry getting involved with charities through T-shirt, but when I do, its inspiring.  I really like the choice of the charity.  Very appropriate considering the music talents which they T-shirts were inspired.

Do good things.
