Along with those East Coast stops, Mary Anne hits up Canada with some hard-pressed Canadian customs drama. At least she played a great gig with the always-awesome XI. More info about all the highs, lows and in-betweens after the jump.

Egyptrixx

Bible Eyes

Released by Night Slugs


Toronto's Egyptrixx has in a short period of time been able to stand apart from the herd in contemporary dance music, with a unique style of Techno, House, Dubstep and Leftfield Electronics.
