Ok I'm going to stray from reviewing music today in order to give everyone a heads up on Sled Island http://blog.sledisland.com/watch?v=a1nC-uyhg1c that will be rolling into town on June 22-25. This year has one of the best lineups since the year Mogwai and Yo La Tengo graced the main stage when it was held behind Mewata. In order to prepare for the festival I took the time to take a listen to the bands that I didn't know on the list while also being thoroughly excited for the bands I did know. So I offer to those that want to know what bands they should check out my recommendations on the list. Some bands people will know or maybe they don't and will take the time to listen to them. Either way I hope to help shed some light on the great music that will be flooding our city in June. First up:
