The Super Saturated Sugar Strings:
Powerful, funky and alt-folky, the Super Saturated Sugar Strings have a very nostalgic, yet contemporary sound; rich with vocal harmonies, string melodies, and an element of carnival sideshow. Their gypsy-country vibe has won the group high honors and has stirred a fervent congregation of dedicated fans. the Sugar Strings have shared the stage with artists such as Devotchka, The Head and the Heart, The Builders and The Butchers, Shook Twins, and The Deadly Gentlemen.
Pikal:
Those of you that have been in Anchortown since the 90s may have seen longtime local indie power pop/rock band Pikal open for national acts the Violent Femmes, the Posies, and Pond -- and more recently for Grouplove and Big Head Todd & the Monsters.
Alex the Lion:
Alex the Lion has been practicing his DJ craft since the ripe age of 15. Now that Alex has several more years and considerably more experience under his belt, he has become wildly popular in the Anchorage music scene and has had the opportunity to open for a number of big names, such as Ghostland Observatory and Fitz and the Tantrums.
Fredzilla:
Chicago-based DJ visiting his buddy Alex the Lion. Lucky for us he and ATL used to gig together a lot so we get to jam to the beats of 2 DJs!
