SUMMARY:Sled Island and Dandy present: Chris Burns & His Going Concerns and
  more
DESCRIPTION:Chris Burns & His Going Concerns\nFour decades of Montreal “r
 acket‑roll” come roaring to life with this garage-born collective. As a
  member of bands like Terminal Sunglasses and Tha Retail Simps\, Chris Burn
 s has perfected his punk swagger and noisy improvisation. Now\, His Growing
  Concerns deliver burnzoid anthems right‑this‑minute with ferocious mus
 icianship and unhinged joy. Sounds like a good time to us!\nCircling Girl\n
 Drawing inspiration from dream pop icons such as Cocteau Twins and The Sund
 ays\, and modern indie favourites Beach House and Alvvays\, Circling Girl c
 rafts glimmering harmonies and spaced-out guitars that walk the line betwee
 n familiar and fresh. Their latest album\, Only My Veins Know\, unfolds as 
 a lush dreamscape and a medium for self-exploration.\nSea of Lettuce\nAlway
 s bringing the sunny vibes with their beachy brand of indie rock\, Sea of L
 ettuce blends components of reflective lyricism with catchy upbeat instrume
 ntation. With four albums released and a history of exciting live performan
 ces\, the band’s catalogue is full of summer soundtracks that’ll warm y
 ou right up.\nTANGINGUGUN\nPsychedelic\, dreamy pop duo TANGINGUGUN feature
 s wavering guitars\, driving bass\, percussive electronic beats\, and pitch
 -shifting synths that shimmer at the edges. Male and female vocals intertwi
 ne with emotionally rich melodies\, blending Japanese pop nostalgia with su
 rreal\, experimental psychedelia. It’s a sound that feels both intimate a
 nd otherworldly.\nBrock GeigerWith his debut LP Some Nights\, Brock Geiger 
 takes a bold step out from the shadows of the sideman role\, shining a spot
 light 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 aute
 ur.\nHip Hip Thursday\nWorking 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 s
 torytelling\, emotion\, and connection to the important realities of the wo
 rld around us. Just wait and see where these six musicians can take you.\nI
