th in Calgary, Alberta an island of amazing music will emerge in the downtown of the oil city called
Sled Island. Thanks to our friends who do an amazing job at booking this thing we've got the full list of acts slated to perform this year and it doesn't disappoint, maybe that's because a number of the groups were hand picked by guest festival curator
