The Barrie Earth Hour Music Festival, presented by title sponsor PowerStream, is pleased to announce the roster of artists who will be performing at this exciting event taking place in downtown Barrie on Saturday, March 26 in support of Earth Hour 2011.
We are proud to present our 2011 artist line up:
Headliner: Bleeker Ridge
Orillia, Ontario’s Bleeker Ridge had a good seven years of dedicated rehearsals, songwriting and gigs before landing a dream record deal with Roadrunner Records Canada and cutting an album, Small Town Dead, with legendary producer Bob Marlette (Shinedown, Default, Seether, Airbourne), chockfull of hooky hard rock anthems. That kind of woodshedding might not seem unusual, except the band formed when they were kids.

Atlantis Blueprint
Steeped in that hard rock spirit, Atlantis Blueprint delivers a sharp-edged set of riff-savvy anthems coloured by funk-jazz overtones, reggae-tinged stomps, and power-ballads. This three piece is busy selling out venues like The Legendary Horseshoe Tavern in Toronto, headlining major festivals like Earth Hour at Barrie’s City Hall all while promoting their debut album!
