Analogue Island Festival – DAY 2
Previously called Wolfechella, and now in its fourth year under a new moniker, this three day festival promises to celebrate the analogue and the avant garde! Featuring everything from post punk and pop to ambient and jazz.
Advanced Day Passes are $30 each. Advanced Full 3-Day-Weekend Passes (Fri-Sun) are $60 each (what a deal! tell all your friends!) Tickets available online until showtime each day, then you can purchase them at the door.
DAY 2: SATURDAY, JULY 5TH
All in the venue’s main bar. Doors at 6:30pm. Show at 7pm sharp!
7pm: Film Screenings from Kai Thorpe (MTL) & Primordial Freak (LA) .
Montreal’s Kai Thorpe is best known as a member of the band Crasher but tonight he’s going to showcase some of his experimental films. We couldn’t be more thrilled to have this visual element to our festivities this year. Especially because he’s bringing along offerings from collaborator’s Primordial Freak out of LA. This will be the perfect way to ease into the night’s many offerings on day two of Analogue Island Fest. https://www.primordialfreak.com/
8pm: Strip Lacquer
Toronto-based band Strip Lacquer are an act who are comfortable existing in unease.
Drawing from art rock experimentation, industrial abrasiveness, and post-punk ethos – Strip Lacquer is an outfit that encompasses sharp emotional songwriting with nuanced dissonance and a diverse sonic palette. Their musical influences include The Birthday Party, Fad Gadget, Malaria!, Chris and Cosey, and Broadcast. Strip Lacquer is laced in a delicate yet murky disposition, shifting seamlessly from amoral to vulnerable, fixated by a desire to dissect the grotesque.
9pm: Theo Vandenhoff
Theo Vandenhoff is a synthpop artist from Toronto who creates infectious and melodramatic pop songs for the painfully lonely. Vandenhoff twists a multitude of influences, mostly from the 70s and 80s, into his own brand of off-kilter synthetic pop music. This wildman has graved the hotel’s stage with his band before. I think the locals are still recovering. Don’t miss it!
10pm: Queer Karaoke! – all welcome, come sing with us!
Hosted by island locals you know and love. These nights always get wild!
