Established in 2009, Last Dinosaurs are a Brisbane-based indie rock band best known for their lush and adrenaline-pumping garage rock. Their latest release, 'Flying' (April 2020) sees the band take a new sonic direction, making a departure from their indie rock roots and exploring a French house and 90's nu-disco-inspired sound. Culminating night one as an evening of indie-rock. Night 2 on Saturday 5/15 will feature Slope Day's first female headliner, Ari Lennox. Ari, a D.C.-born singer-songwriter, is signed with Dreamville and is the next up and coming R&B vocalist sensation. The video for Ari's sultry single, "Shea Butter Baby," featuring label head and marquee artist, J. Cole, has surpassed 14 million views on YouTube alone. Her debut album Shea Butter Baby is available now on all digital retailers and features the vintage production stylings of Elite, Christo, Jaylen Rojas and multi-instrumentalist, Masego. Ari embarked on the sold out Shea Butter Baby Tour earlier this month in support of her debut album and current single, "BMO." With early tour reviews trickling in, it is clear that Ari Lennox's star is readying to reach new heights.
