$25

This festival-style event will be a unique concert experience featuring some of the most exciting emerging talent from the UK and from two of Canada's most musically charged cities, Toronto and Montréal.

The Bright Lights Festival?s UK headliners are ELBOW (Manchester, V2), in one of only two North American appearances this year. They are joined by compatriots THE DUKE SPIRIT (London, Loog), who will be making their Canadian debut.

Montréal will be represented by ISLANDS (Rough Trade), the new outlet for former UNICORNS members Nick Diamonds and J?aime Tambeur, and by THE CALL-UP, an extraordinary new band featuring members of THE DEARS, THE STILLS, THE SNITCHES and CAFEINE.

Toronto?s contribution to the bill includes next-big-thing THE MELIGROVE BAND, V2 Records? first ever Canadian signing. UKULA is also pleased to present some of the most compelling young artists Toronto has to offer in STIRLING and THE COAST.
