About this Event



Friday Bands
Drunk Cat

Info: Drunk Cat is a Montreal-based music collective that doesn’t play by the rules. Composed of vocalists Gogey Boy and LUIS SAINT ROSE, producer/vocalist bennyisjack, and video director/visual coordinator Gabe from hunam.io, their sound and vision come straight from the heart—and they do it all in-house. With gritty, genre-blending production and unapologetically raw visuals, Drunk Cat flips the script on what it means to be an artist. It’s all about embracing flaws, breaking boundaries, and keeping it real. No filters. Just fire.


Faiyaz and the Wasted Chances

Info: Faiyaz and the Wasted Chances are a Toronto Based DIY Garage Punk thriller.
With a no holds bar virtuosic vintage vibe, This goofy yet intense 3 piece intends on leaving show goers stunned, with their catchy, shredded brand of rock n roll.


Weekend Goodbye

Info: Not punk. Not indie. Not anything. Fuck you. Weekend Goodbye will make you feel again. Let Dylan’s raw unfiltered hooks pierce your soul, they’ll be stuck in your head forever. Their performance will leave you screaming, shaking, and shitting. Dylan sings, shreds, and sparkles, Brandon beats the drums as hard as his mom used to, Mandy’s bass lines are as gross as she is, and Richard plays guitar... You’ll never come across another band like this. With talent to match their untameable egos you’ll fall in love with the show they put on but hate running into them when you run out for a smoke (also can I bum one?). Hold on to your tote bags, Weekend Goodbye’s going to put on one hell of a show.


Problem Dog

Info: Problem Dog is a Toronto-based grunge band that draws inspiration from Pavement, Nirvana, Flylead, and Paramore. The band is passionate about having their own unique sound and supporting the music scene through their originality. They are a young band that’s committed to bringing high energy and bangers everywhere they go.


Saturday Bands
Roach

Info: Roach is a four-piece alternative rock band based in Toronto, Canada. They describe their sound as “multifarious”, having influences in emo rock, power pop, grunge, and psych. Their most notable performances include opening for Canadian rock icon Bif Naked and Massachusetts’ indie legends Speedy Ortiz.


Amelia Maxwell

Info: An Amelia Maxwell song is a jolt of raw intimacy. Their lyrical poeticism slices through you, while the melodies gently piece you back together. Rooted in folk-rock, Amelia Maxwell's music navigates themes of grief, queerness, nostalgia, and disaffection. Drummer Robyn Bond fuels the energy, driving rock ballads with relentless intensity, while bassist Steven Noronha digs deeper with intricate, thought-provoking basslines. The band has performed across Toronto and Southern Ontario and was featured in the Exclaim! Mag's Class of 2025 showcase. Amelia's debut EP, Lap Dog was released in April.


Spins

Info: Spins are a Toronto 5-piece that blends rock energy with punchy hip-hop flair, fusing riffs, rhythm, and lyrics that hit from left field. Weaving into a sound that defies genre— this is a high-voltage show made to move crowds. A controlled detonation: raw, dynamic, and impossible to ignore.


Romeo Romeo

Info: Romeo Romeo is a raw and evocative Toronto-based four-piece founded in 2018. Blending grunge, indie rock, and art pop, Romeo's lyrics offer blunt poetic prowess emphasized by a bold presence on stage. After co-writing two albums with her previous band, Pins & Needles, Nastasia PK joined forced with drummer Max Bornstein (Goodbye Honolulu), guitar hero Duncan Briggs (BBQ Pope, Fade Awaays), and her real-life cousin Elia Pappas (Lia Pappas-Kemps), to bring this super group to fruition.
