If you haven't heard of Wine Lips, they're from Toronto and fresh off touring Europe and who knows where else. They've been playing for over a decade and have numerous great albums... including their latest (and one of my favourites) Super Mega Ultra.
Over 20 million (!!!!) Spotify listeners can't be wrong! This is one of the biggest bands Ive had the pleasure of working with to make this show one for the ages.
Opening the night will 2 of Cumberland favourite punk acts.
Mean Bikini will be having a homecoming of sorts after a summer of touring and festivals. They alway bring their all. They are a headliner in and of themselves! They just released their debut album so bring some extra cash and get a copy. It rips!
Bad State is back! After an extended hiatus Bad State is finally ready to re-emerge! This is a band I've been super excited about and can't wait to hear what they've up to. Oh, and they always start on time.

It’s been one hell of a wild ride for Wine Lips.
Originally formed in Toronto back in 2015 as a part-time project between Cam Hilborn (vox, songwriter, guitar) and drummer extraordinaire Aurora Evans, Wine Lips quickly escalated into a full-blown, full-time, full-on international phenomenon. Their debut album took them across North America followed immediately by an intensive and unexpected tour of Hong Kong and China in 2018. They released their massive “Stressor” album the very next year (2019) to rave reviews and massive critical acclaim. Multiple tracks from Stressor charted across North American and European radio, while several songs ended up being featured in broadcast and Netflix series. Endless touring ensued.
Then 2020 happened. The band used their mandatory downtime to fully dedicate themselves to crafting their groundbreaking third full-length “Mushroom Death Sex Bummer Party” (recorded by Simon Larochette at The Sugar Shack). The record was released in October 2021 and then shit really hit the fan. The international music press lost their collective minds, penning over 250 glowing features and super positive reviews spanning 35+ countries. At the time of writing, the album blew past 20 Million spins on Spotify alone. The vinyl release of MDSBP is currently in its 7th pressing with 9 different colour variants. The lead track “Eyes” has been licensed to a metric ton of films, series and video games including ABC’s The Rookie, Hockey Night In Canada and Population 11. Even more endless touring ensued, except this time the venues were huge and mostly sold-out.
Which brings us to the new record… “Super Mega Ultra” is an absolute beast. Recorded by Simon Larochette at The Sugar Shack in Ontario, the album is jam-packed with 12 ramped-up supersonic ear-scorching auditory delicacies. SMU is probably Wine Lips’ most ambitious undertaking to date, exploring new thematic territory while firmly maintaining their signature psych garage punk rock panache. You truly need to hear the album to believe it… And if you haven’t already guessed, more endless touring is booked for 2024. The wild ride continues!
Mean Bikini
https://mean-bikini.bandcamp.com/
Mostly queer, sometimes political, always a damn good time. Mean Bikini are hailed for their fast, and enthusiastic live show. With musical influences that range from skate punk to hardcore they make a point to celebrate the good in the world while tearing down the bad in a way that is pointed and unapologetic, but also inclusive and just plain fun.
Bad State

The used to always start on time. Now it seems they're chasing a bullshit dream.
I love the track colony of yesterday!
