This highly anticipated concert brings together two of Toronto's finest tribute bands for an unforgettable event to kick off the summer.

GROOGRUX KINGS are a True Reflection of one of the greatest rock, jam bands of all time - the Dave Matthews Band. Independently, this all-star cast of musicians are active members of the Toronto live music community.

Nightlands
NIGHTLANDS is the recording project of Philadelphia-based multi-instrumentalist, and bassist for The War On Drugs, Dave Hartley. The music he creates in his bedroom is itself a bed of delicate, chiming strings and bubbling synths beneath a blanket of choral vocal arrangements. His sophomore album, Oak Island, was released in January on Secretly Canadian, pairing beautifully harmonized vocals with drum beats that go back and forth between a lazy laid back afternoon day and the busy decent into night life, giving a sense of late-1970s summer touched with golden sunlight.

Royal Teeth
ROYAL TEETH is a happy accident. On a whim, the New Orleans-based band started incorporating samples and electronics to its indie vibe. Though this sounds mainstream, the band catches audiences off-guard with its memorable male and female vocal hooks. More than ever, the band has cemented its stylistic sound. Before, the lineup changed from show-to-show. Now, the six members are set, ready for royalty.
Opening the night will be Brooklyn four-piece, AMERICAN AUTHORS.
