First new Art Bergman album since 1995 is ready: ‘The Apostate’ – available on vinyl and CD
Canadian rock singer-songwriter Art Bergmann, who was one of the key figures in Canadian punk rock in the late 1970s, will have a new album out in early May called “The Apostate”. “The Apostate” is Art Bergmann’s first full length of new material since “What Fresh Hell Is This” (1995) and is the follow up to the 2014 EP “Songs For The Underclass”.
Recorded this past September with producer Lorrie Matheson at Arch Audio in Calgary, the album features 8 newly penned songs and a cast of stellar musicians including Paul Rigby (Neko Case, The Sadies). You can order the album on vinyl and on CD right now.

More people read Side-Line than ever, and there is still no paywall and no advertising. Readers pay for it instead - from $5 a month.
Why we ask
Advertising revenues across the media are falling fast. Unlike many news organisations we have not put up a paywall, and we refuse to add annoying advertising, so we need to ask for your help. Side-Line’s independent journalism takes time, money and hard work to produce, and we do it to push the artists we like, who are equally fighting to survive.

Strip out the promo nonsense, verify what’s actually real, and decide which stories make the cut and which get tossed into the digital void.
