Sat, Mar 12th, 8-10pm, Concert – San Felix: The Rugged Coast Tour, with special guests Pacific Colours – indie-rock
Forever astounded that the neighbours haven’t filed a noise complaint, San Felix is Ian Kopp, Brett Frankson, Mark Bell, and Nick Tassell. They are an enthusiastic group of young men writing music together in a garage in Victoria, BC. They will be supporting their third EP, "Tropic of Self", with live dates across Canada in 2016. If Modest Mouse and the Talking Heads had a fist fight, they would be the bruises.
Forming out of a host of other Victoria-area acts, San Felix is a sinuous blend of sand-strewn guitar, mirage-conjuring synth, and a hook-heavy rhythm section. They are the teenage dream haunted by honest introspection, equal parts jubilation and tension. The energy and pace of their live act catches in gentle lulls and canyon-edge stops, while self-consciously brooding lyrics carve a unique place in the landscape.
After a string of festival dates and several self-booked tours around Canada, the band released their second EP on April 3, 2015. Recorded with fellow Victorian Sam Weber, Fire Island was funded in large part by weekend bottle drives. On the heels of significant campus radio success for the effort, San Felix returned to the studio to produce "Tropic of Self", coming in April 2016.
