Thu May 30 Sequence
Vincent + Dyln
Sequence: Vincent + Dyln! Future Bass, Trap! Off stage, bass music aficionado Vincent (aka Robert Hughes) looks like he could be just about any young Canadian: happy go lucky, barely legal, and bespectacled, outfitted with a Winnipeg Jets jersey and wave of brown hair. On stage, he flaps around maniacally behind his rig and there's no doubt about who he is: mega producer, sound creator, and energy maker who has just embarked on his first headlining tour this year.
