A mutation of the conventional concert format

Four Corners Concert Will Present Four of Toronto’s Premier Live Acts – Simultaneously

In what could be described as a mutation of the conventional concert format, FOUR CORNERS will present four of Toronto’s premier live acts – simultaneously.  Bands will exchange songs from four corners of a room, eliminating temporal separation between performers to create a more dynamic experience for the audience.

T-A-NNZ-A

Taking place Friday, July 23rd at the Steelworkers Hall in downtown Toronto, the show will feature local heavy-hitters Anagram (widely regarded as Toronto’s best live band), Teenanger (hot off the release of their latest LP, “Give me Pink”), No No Zero, and Ancestors.  While all the bands share a penchant for intense live performances, a collision of this magnitude is an event of utmost rarity.

According to organizer Corey Wells, Four Corners has been over a year in the making.  “Last Summer I started tossing around the idea but it was more difficult to pin down the logistics in terms of finding the right venue and the right bands.  It’s not a typical show so the requirements were somewhat unusual.”

Four Corners’ format presents a number of practical advantages for attendees.  “If you’re stuck in a spot with bad sightlines and can’t see the band, just wait for the next song and your vantage point will change”, says Wells.  “Plus, admission is free and we’re kicking things off with a BBQ at 9 PM.”
