As a member of bands like Terminal Sunglasses and Tha Retail Simps, Chris Burns has perfected his punk swagger and noisy improvisation. Now, His Growing Concerns deliver burnzoid anthems right‑this‑minute with ferocious musicianship and unhinged joy. Sounds like a good time to us! Circling Girl Drawing inspiration from dream pop icons such as Cocteau Twins and The Sundays, and modern indie favourites Beach House and Alvvays, Circling Girl crafts glimmering harmonies and spaced-out guitars that walk the line between familiar and fresh. Their latest album, Only My Veins Know, unfolds as a lush dreamscape and a medium for self-exploration. Sea of Lettuce Always bringing the sunny vibes with their beachy brand of indie rock, Sea of Lettuce blends components of reflective lyricism with catchy upbeat instrumentation. With four albums released and a history of exciting live performances, the band’s catalogue is full of summer soundtracks that’ll warm you right up. TANGINGUGUN Psychedelic, dreamy pop duo TANGINGUGUN features wavering guitars, driving bass, percussive electronic beats, and pitch-shifting synths that shimmer at the edges. Male and female vocals intertwine with emotionally rich melodies, blending Japanese pop nostalgia with surreal, experimental psychedelia. It’s a sound that feels both intimate and otherworldly. Brock Geiger With his debut LP Some Nights, Brock Geiger takes a bold step out from the shadows of the sideman role, shining a spotlight on his refined chameleon-like songcraft and indie rock sensibilities. The record has garnered attention from NPR and Rolling Stone and serves as a perfectly distilled introduction to the mind of a Calgary indie-pop auteur. Hip Hip Thursday Working to honour the traditions of jazz and hip-hop while charting new creative territories with influences of funk, indie, and rock, Hip Hip Thursday’s music is not just about sound, but about storytelling, emotion, and connection to the important realities of the world around us. Just wait and see where these six musicians can take you. Important info: Start and running times are subject to change. Please check the Sled Island schedule in June for exact set times.
