Young, gifted and queer

Head to the Fruit Loopz stage to watch some hot up-and-coming performers courtesy of the folks in Supporting Our Youth.

The stages have been a breeding ground for terrific talent – Ryan Hinds, for example – and the vibe at the event is always electric. If you’re lucky, you’ll see the soon-to-break three-piece rock outfit People You Know – easy on the eyes, easy on the ears – named best band in 2008 and 09 by Xtra! Magazine.

Groove to Abstract Random’s experimental dub hip-hop. And the dancers in Kiki House of Pink Lady are a riot as they pursue their goal of building ballroom action in Toronto. Older gay types are known to sit gobsmacked at this event, wishing there’d been a scene like this when they were young.

• Fruit Loopz, Alexander Parkette (beside Buddies in Bad Times) on Saturday (July 3), 2 to 10 pm. soytoronto.org.
