Canadian Blast is the showcase and export brand coordinated and operated by CIMA, the Canadian Independent Music Association.  Canadian Blast presents showcases around the world, from SXSW in Texas to Music Matters in Tokyo, featuring a diverse range of Canadian talent, both up-and-coming and established.  In addition, Canadian Blast is an import/export tool for anyone interested in finding out about Canadian music.  We are compiling a listings area on our site of all Canadian artist activities around the world.
