Janurary 17th Wolf +Lamb Sapporo Stage 20:30

New York’s Zev Eisenberg and Gadi Mizrahi have created a culture of cool with Wolf + Lamb; a record label, club nights of the same name, artist collective and laid back dance sound that never takes itself too seriously or conforms to the “trendy” approach to music making.

“We play passionate music that moves hearts, and not just feet.”- Wolf + Lamb

Catch them tonight! Closing off the festivities at the Sapporo Stage at 20:3

Saturday January 19th High Klassified Virgin Mobile Igloo 20:30

The Montreal experimental electronic and hip-hop movement- known as Piu Piu is rapidly growing, gaining massive popularity in Europe and the U.S, so it’s about time that Montreal’s hottest musicians got some exposure back home. The multicultural aspect of the city as well as its root in bilingualism has really fostered a new sound that is completely unique to Montreal. Montreal’s High-Klassified’s sound could be coined as hip-hop/rap/experimental but according to his fans, it’s just pure “swag”

Excited yet? Get a feel for the vibe with our highlights from last year! See you there Snowbunnies! xo
