Edmonton, AB

Known best as the songwriter/lead performer behind Mint Records act Wares, Cassia Hardy will be performing as a solo act at Sled Island this year. Hardy is a fearsome performer whether with band or solo, and has a back catalogue of tunes ranging from quiet and acoustic to utterly rollicking. Hardy’s most recent album as Wares, Survival, received a glowing review from Pitchfork and was longlisted for the 2020 Polaris Prize.
