Zenkaikon 2017

Portland's The Slants are the first and only all-Asian-American dance rock band in the world. They offer up catchy dance beats, strong hooks, and a bombastic live show that is "not to be missed" (The Westword). The Willamette Week says "While the band may well be best experienced live, Slants releases always promise a few blistering, note-perfect singles." The music is the perfect combination of 80's driven synth pop with hard-hitting indie, floor-filling beats which fans affectionately dub as "Chinatown Dance Rock." They've been featured on Conan O'Brien's Team Coco, BBC, NPR, NBC, IFC TV, Huffington Post, MTV, and over 1,500 radio stations, TV shows, magazines, and websites across 85 countries.

The Slants are incredibly excited to present their unique sound to Zenkaikon on both Saturday and Sunday! Make sure to make room in your con schedule!
