The Biltmore Cabaret (395 Kingsway)

Sled Island and Beatroute Magazine are bringing you lovely people an awesomely fun (and apparently very sexy) lineup of superb Vancouver musicians to help warm up (see what they did there?) for the Sled Island festival that takes place in Calgary in late June.

More details after the jump.

The lineup includes:

No Gold: From Kraut grooves to ritualistic incantations, minimalist repetitions to pop songwriting, Vancouver trio No Gold is a compelling combination of flavors. With special nuance and attention, in both performance and recording, No Gold create as much space for experimentation as for pure dance-ability.

Korean Gut: Spot-on 60’s Surf with elements of SHADOWY MEN ON A SHADOWY PLANET and GUIDED BY VOICES duking it out in a bare-knuckle brawl. Fresh!

Plus White Poppy & Bankrobber

Doors are at 8pm

Tickets are $10 at the door
