FREE EVENT. No ticket required. Priority given to passholders.
knitting
knitting weaves languid melodies over slow guitars and catchy lyrics. This is perfectly captured on their self-titled debut album. Somewhere between being wistful and jubilant, the group’s lo-fi indie rock and dream-pop sensibility conjure a hazy trip down lanes of nostalgia.
Heaven For Real
Like a brooding Vampire Weekend, Heaven for Real’s light-hearted, jumpy string work gives way to heavy distortion, almost glitchy guitar work, and an intentionally undertoned synth melody. With softly crooned vocals harkening back to the indie sleaze of the early aughts, this is groovy noise for those who want to dance all night.
Miesha & The Spanks
Brawny two-piece Miesha and The Spanks are not only local heroes – they are stylish purveyors of snarky classic rock snarl. There is a certain playful energy to their snotty punk anthems that lends itself best to the atmosphere of a Sled Island rager.
Rebel Grrrlz
Rebel Grrrlz are a five-piece Canadian riot grrrl/punk band from Calgary, Alberta. The band formed in 2022 from a collection of girls who met at Girls Rock Camp, now known as BAM Camp. Their unique style fuses loud and fast music, with gang vocals with a punk sound that will make you want to dance. Rebel Grrrlz have played Sled Island’s inaugural “All-Ager Rager'' as well as opened for the Avengers at Sloth Records 30th Anniversary at the Palomino.
Nora Kelly Band
You'll find Nora Kelly Band somewhere on the corner of soothing bedroom rock and soulful rancher twang. The band cuts through country tradition to bring youth-charged energy to the forefront on their debut album, Rodeo Clown. If you’re looking for the intersection of Waylon Jennings and City and Colour, you’ve come to the right place.
