Sound Check Festival – April 2014

Overview

To those who thought The Chalk Hotel wasn’t capable of hosting anything besides trivia nights, college exchanges and snow parties, have we got news for you. April 26 marks the launch of their new urban musical experience, Sound Check, a collection of ten monthly mini festivals to be held right throughout 2014. And to kickstart the ride, they’ve hauled in a mighty collection of artists that may or may not be entirely overshadowed by the Chalk’s biggest catch, Xzibit.

I kid you not. Meme-fiend, king of the screen, and rapper Alvin 'Xzibit' Joiner will be at The Chalk Hotel this Saturday, performing, existing and showing up Will and Kate as rapper royalty. The Funkoars, Remi, Briggs, IAMD, DJ Invisable and Demrick will also be showing off some urban, musical talent. But until they start pimpin' some rides, they won’t be getting descriptions, just hyperlinks.

Whether you’re a Stereosonic junkie or just appreciate a finely curated selection of contemporary rap, R&B and rhyme, check out this new Brisbane festival. It's only $55 to see Xzibit and co — and for a chance to fist punch alongside Xzibit, that’s nothing.
