On April 17th, Steam Whistle Brewing’s UNSIGNED music concert series takes over the Roundhouse, with the punk offerings of Toronto’s Dilly Dally and Teenanger, and the synth-indie sounds of Most People. Tickets are only $5 at the door (doors open at 8 p.m) with proceeds going to support The Artists Health Alliance.

Most People, the Toronto-duo made up of Brandon Gibson-DeGroote and Paul McEachern, open-up the night with a sound reminiscent of a different era. Their masterfully crafted synths sounds and interludes captivate the audience and sends them on a journey. This trance is broken with the change of pace and grimy rock and roll punk sounds of Toronto’s Teenanger. Once described as “ probably the best Canadian rock record since CPC Gangbangs let Mutilation Nation loose in 2007” the raging rhythms and riffs penetrate the eardrums and draw out any pent-up aggression. The end of the night will climax with Dilly Dally’s hauntingly poetic vocals emitting a passion that many have lost or stowed away. Their epic grunge-pop sends a burst of energy leaving the crowd remembering why punk rock and roll shows are never forgotten.
