#syls #lethbrige #yql #lethbridgeevents
Tomorrow, Strange Winds Music Festival 2026 is bringing a storm of heavy music to The Slice Bar & Grill 🌪️
This weekend also happens to be Mitch Caldwell’s birthday - and Strange Winds is truly his brainchild. Every band on this lineup was carefully chosen by Mitch himself, and he’s worked relentlessly to bring together a festival packed with the music he loves most. It’s been an absolute honor sharing the organizer role with him and watching this event come to life.
To get everyone ready for tomorrow, Mitch has put together a special playlist for you all to crank while you prepare for the chaos ahead!

Lethbridge - The Cadavor Dog is unleashed THIS WEEKEND for Strange Winds Music Festival 2026 at The Slice Bar & Grill!
Rising from Calgary’s underground, this three-headed beast eats, breathes, and sleeps metal. Deadly riffs and breakneck speed - these guys should come with a warning.
Danger: built for true metalheads.
