In The Future...The Sadies, Awesome Color, Myxlodian, More Folk Fest Acts, And More!

Toronto’s The Sadies are packing their bags and riding their horses on into town for a date at the Pyramid on May 25th. The band is touring in support of their brand-new record, Darker Circles (street date: May 18th).

Dubbed by Rolling Stone as “a grimier version of Sonic Youth”, New York’s Awesome Color is at the Albert on April 12th supported by Hair Police. Will Canadian posters read Awesome Colour?

Idiosyncratic synth-pop band Mixylodian play there on May 15th.

More confirmed acts from this year’s Folk Festival: Jimmy Cliff, Delhi 2 Dublin, Depedro, Jim Bryson with The Weakerthans, Aaron Nigel Smith, Michael Kusugak, and Flyin’ Bob.

On  June 11th, The Magnificient 7's and DJ Co-op perform at the Pyramid.

Metal act Dark Tranquility is there on May 23rd.

And finally, a reminder to those lucky enough to have snapped up tickets for Stars now-sold-out intimate gig at the Pyramid: you can vote for the songs you’d like to hear during the encore at the band’s new site. I just cast votes for 'Tru', 'What The Snowman Learned About Love', 'Calendar Girl', and 'Time Can Never Kill The True Heart'.

You can also trade your email address for a free download of the synthacular “Fixed”, a track off the soon-to-be-released Five Ghosts.
