F-105—2026 Headliner
F-105 (aka Din) is an unverified mythpunk folk rocker from Toronto, weaving between electric band and solo acoustic music. Ask him why he makes music and he’ll say it’s because he “has a song.” To F-105, rock n roll isn't a product—it's a life-force. F-105 will debut new full-band songs at RFC '26 to be live recorded that night.

Drago—2026 Performer
Drago “Kazooic” is a Serbia-born pop-rock and world music artist who began his musical journey at an early age, building recognition in his homeland with published records and official releases while embracing a path of unity and diversity through sound. Now based in Canada, he champions the kazoo as a serious and magnificent instrument, creating original songs with tracks like “No Love in Mississauga.”

Jody & the Friendzone—2026 Performer
His name is Jody and the Friendzone. He writes songs that your mother, boss or girlfriend would not approve of - blending pop-punk, comedy and geek fandom references references.

Justin de Leon—2026 Performer

Camo Kimono—2026 Headliner
Camo Kimono is a Toronto-based band with an energetic rock sound filtered through an explosive collision of J-Pop urgency, Brit-Rock swagger, and alt rock fury. Their sound is crisp, their original music and lyrics relatable and entertaining, and their infectious style will leave you wanting more.

The Great Infinite—2026 Performer
The Great Infinite creates reflective, soul-centered music rooted in the idea of remedies for the soul. Blending introspective songwriting with themes of growth and self-discovery, the project invites listeners into a deeper inner landscape.

TGM—2026 Performer
TGM, the Great Max has been performing since childhood in musical theatre and breakdancing. Whether his own inner turmoil, or that of the state of the world at large, TGM directly expresses himself with raw rap attitude, catchy hooks, and rhythmic finesse.

Keileigh Lighthouse—2026 Performer
Keileigh entered the Toronto music scene as an a capella singer after a 6 year hiatus from performing live. Dabbling across genres, and after singing countless songs about love, she would be nicknamed "Ms. Lighthouse" because she never changed her Facebook username.
