Fly In Formation - Big Tones

Big Tones exudes a classic boom bap vibe, and brings a lot of social justice issues to the forefront in his music. He’s based in Saskatoon and I learned a lot about him as we talked for this episode of FiF. I sort of wish I had the chance to hear his album in advance to talking, because since we spoke, “Existence” dropped, and I would have had a lot of more pointed questions and topics to talk about if I knew how substantive and important the commentary in his new project was going to be. Tap in and learn more about Tones and his OTO movement.

Through June, Fly in Formation is doubling down and I’ll be talking with artists twice a week. I’ve lined up 9 artists through the course of the month, every Tuesday and Saturday. The full schedule is posted below, make sure you take a look and mark the calendar for the artists you don’t want to miss, or go over to Twitch and hit follow and click the bell to get alerts when I go live! Everyone is welcome, come through and say hi or ask a question for the guest - if it makes sense I’ll pretend I thought of it myself.
