The setting is West Coast Canadian, forested islands surrounded by emerald ocean.
Music is a key part of the island arts scene.
The island is also home to several recording studios, which are popular with visiting recording artists happy to escape the noise of the city. The arts scene is big too. Galleries and studios are everywhere, drawing visitors from around the world. Salt Spring is a great place for a vacation, and a great place to hear fine music. But if you can't visit the island in person, you can at least sample its music at SaltSpringMusic.
