Keys N Krates will headline the Fanshawe Student Union’s Winter Week celebrations in Forwell Hall on January 31.

On January 31, Forwell Hall will be transformed into a dance club, complete with black lights, glow sticks and beats to keep you dancing all night long.

“It's going to be the biggest on-campus party that we're going to have all year,” said Tim Fraser, the Fanshawe Student Union's entertainment programmer. He's bringing Toronto-based Keys N Krates' unique blend of hip hop and bass music to campus as part of the FSU's Winter Week celebrations.

Keys N Krates is “like live club music with a full band — drummer, a DJ and a keyboard player,” Fraser said. “It's a three-person live band doing stuff that you'd normally just see a DJ do — it's pretty rad.”

The group is already making a name for themselves, showcasing at SXSW last March. “They're on the verge of really blowing up to giant status in the club scene,” Fraser said. “In the next two or three years you'll be able to see these guys at a giant club in downtown Toronto.” Make the most of this chance to see this up-and-coming Canadian band before they really make it big.

Grab your neon paint and start getting ready for the show on January 31; the fun starts at 9 p.m. The FSU will be giving out a ton of glowsticks and LED batons and — oh yeah — two trips for two to Montreal for Spring Break (February 27 through March 2). Every full-time student over the age of 18 who purchases an advance ticket to the show will be entered into the draw, and winners will be announced at the show.

Get your tickets at the Biz Booth soon to save some cash: they're $3 for first 50 tickets, $5 for the next 50 tickets, $10 for ticket numbers 100+ and $15 at the door. No advance sales to underage students.
