Sled Island 2010 (Zak Pashak) Calgary, AB ::web/sounds::

Sled Island 2010 is upon us. Calgary’s premiere indie music, video, and art festival is a treasure trove of exploratory stimulus. It’s the largest concentration of insanity west of everywhere (in Canada). Weird Canada and Texture Magazine will be presenting the SHRED ISLAND BBQ (x2), a free all-ages afternoon showcase on Thursday and Saturday at Tubby Dog (w/ Dropping Out, Fist City, Mount Analog, Feral Children, JAZZ, Sans AIDS, Puberty, GOBBLE GOBBLE, and (hopefully) Famines).

However, there is so much more than just our wonderful little showcase (obviously). With over 150 bands, there’s a lot to chose from, so we thought I’d filter the complete list of performers down to a “Weird Canada Selection.” The below list includes all Canadian bands that we have reviewed or seen. We have left off American bands, as well as bands we’re stoked about but haven’t heard yet. We may have also forgotten one or two shows.

Have fun! We hope to see you there!
