The Xx & Grizzly Bear Tickets
Molson amphitheatre | Toronto,
This is not your typical rock concert. Don’t expect headbanging and body slamming (yet you are not discouraged to do so). The music is hypnotic, heady, trippy and it will rock you…gently. The music of The xx is all the stuff that indie-alternative rock music is made of. It is melancholy, yet reverberates with a soulful groove. It ebbs and flows yet pierces through; it is lethal, it can kill you…softly. Catch The xx, touring together with the Grizzly Bear at the Molson Canadian Amphitheatre, Echo Beach, Toronto, Canada, on June 6, 2013. Show starts 7:30 pm.
