FESTAPALOOZA

This summer, we are very fortunate and thankful to be a part of three amazing fests in Alberta. At two of these fests, we will be playing limited "Cope & St.Gilles" sets, giving the people coming out a chance to check out our collaborative efforts with St. Gilles before the new 10" comes out. We've received a mock up of the St.Gilles material being mixed between our songs for the A side, and it's sounding rad! The dark chaotic sounds of St.Gilles add a whole other element to our music making it, in my opinion, far more cathartic and overall more intense. We're really excited to finally being acting this out, as if you look far enough back in this blog you'll see we've been wanting to do this for years. These shows are limited in the sense that we will only be playing once in Edmonton, and once in Calgary, so come check it out.

Here are the fest details. Follow the links for more info on different days and all the awesome bands paying.
