May is a musical month of contrasts with everything from violin virtuoso Gil Shaham to grindcore godfathers Napalm Death. We've got cheek with Lady Sovereign, shamelessness signed Peaches, the underexposed Ève Cournoyer, soulful poet K'naan, local songster Alexandre Désilets, I've got a soft spot for Montreal's Dee, I'm particularly excited about the return of Piknic Electronik and MUTEK!
