Legal Age 19+ (Valid Photo I.D. Required)BBQ pope:Toronto based garage psych punk trio BBQ Pope have been rocking the Canadian music scene since 2015, starting out playing backyard parties, DIY basement shows and many packed club rooms. The bands dynamic songwriting and exciting performances have led them to become a staple of the citys underground garage rock scene. Upon returning from a 3-year hiatus in December, 2023 the band found themselves reinvigorated with a sense of joy for performing again, a matured sound, and a humbled appreciation for connection through their music. wakelee: Formed in Brooklyn in 2019, wakelee consists of identical twins Alex and David Bulmer, and Elliot Shiang. They met at a friends party and immediately bonded over Halal food and music. Singles from their debut album and upcoming EP have landed them on BBC radio and Spotifys All New Punk and Fresh Finds playlists. Heavy Sweater:Heavy Sweater is a rock band from Toronto that blends power pop, indie and emo into an energetic and always-catchy sound. Weekend Goodbye:Not punk. Not indie. Not anything. Fuck you. Weekend Goodbye will make you feel again. Let Dylans raw unfiltered hooks pierce your soul, theyll 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, Mandys bass lines are as gross as she is, and Richard plays guitar. Youll never come across another band like this. With talent to match their untameable egos youll 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 Goodbyes going to put on one hell of a show. Separator:separator is a band with a great and terrible destiny. on their new EP, they explore the depths of alternative and indie rock to make their most focused statement yet. they have only just begun.meeting at arts camp as teenagers, the band cut their teeth in the small but far-reaching durham music scene, before establishing themselves as a bold, fresh voice in the toronto indie community. separators dynamic and unpredictable live shows are entirely unique, and have to be seen to be believed.
