ANAGRAM Wednesday, February 16, the Boat (158 Augusta)
Anagram’s raw, unnerving post-punk shows put them in the upper echelon of local live bands.
NOT THE WIND, NOT THE FLAG Thursday, February 17, the Music Gallery (179 John)
If any act exemplifies Wavelength’s experimental spirit, it’s genre-hopping improvisational jazz duo Not the Wind, Not the Flag.
WOODHANDS Friday, February 18, Steam Whistle (255 Bremner)
Toronto’s premier nerd-dance two-piece is also one of the first participants in Wavelength’s Studio Series (along with NTWNTF), in which they talk about gear, process and craft in a workshop environment on Saturday (February 19).
HOODED FANG Saturday, February 19, the Great Hall (1087 Queen)
A perpetual Wavelength fave, this exuberant local pop collective has quickly risen to festival-headliner status.
LULLABYE ARKESTRA & FRIENDS Sunday, February 20, the Garrison (1197 Dundas)
The soul-metal duo adopts a house-band format for the fest. Given last year’s final-night all-star Hidden Cameras jam, expect the guest list to be vast.
