"I created the FestEvil to celebrate women in metal. Their contribution is essential to our national metal scene and should not be looked over. This is the first concert of many to come that is all fronted by women and is to show the world out there that the Canadian metal scene is alive. I also decided to produce the show 2 days before International Women’s Day so that all the best of the best female musicians from Quebec's metal scene are all under the same venue for us all to celebrate, this is 'The Beauty of The FestEvil' and the women in our metal scene making a difference."
