CONCRETE VEHICLES (formerly Computer) is a band from Vancouver that originated as a recording project between lifelong friends Hudson Schelesny and Ben Lock. As their recordings developed, the songs became too chaotic and nuanced to play live with a normal band which got them excited about expanding into a larger group. Fast forward a year and Concrete Vehicles is a fully formed seven piece working on transforming their songs to embrace a wider range of instrumentation including saxophone, synths, and percussion. They have played over 50 shows including an Eastern Canadian tour, a UK and Europe tour, with appearances at Sled Island, Khatsalano Festival, M For Montreal, and Left of the Dial.

For fans of Black Country New Road, YHWH Nailgun, and Hella.

OLDER FRIENDS who are “Too old to play screamo, too young to not die” are a trio from Berlin and its bubbling DIY scene. 

Their songs bounce between twinkly, playful Midwest-emo passages and bursts of full-on screamo chaos - the kind of contrast that keeps you smiling right until the next emotional gut punch lands. Lyrically, they move between German and English, which adds another layer to their already charmingly chaotic mix. Beneath the sparkle and the noise, their lyrics often tackle themes of self-determination as a woman in a patriarchal society, calling out its many absurdities and injustices.

This will be their last show for the rest of this year!
