PAST FEATURES:
Wednesday, March 22 at 8 PM
Judas Goat strives to create music that conjures an atmosphere of quintessential stirring with beats, vocals and stringed rhythms that are steady, genuine and unexpected.
Judas Goat formed over jams sessions in the shipyard and a musically combined vibe that enthralled both Goats. Their first rehearsal ever involved foraging for fruit in the city jungle and sitting in the bush and watching wildlife.
Phaedra Harder is born and raised in Vancouver and Leah Day is from Yukon Territory. Aubrey Pedersen plays along side us when she can and hails from Vancouver.

Featured Artist: David Storey
Wednesday, March 22 at 8 PM
After nearly 25 years of achieving excellence by applying his wit, sensitivity and artistry in the service of others in the fields of directing and production for videos and television, David Storey is coming home to his first love: music.
His debut full-length release, Comin’ Home, contains all the aspects of Storey’s musical gems that fans have loved the most since he resumed composing and performing: wry wit and penetrating insights about life’s changes, characters and passions humorously and powerfully delivered.
Although not strictly autobiographical in nature, the title of his debut full-length album Comin’ Home, being released this summer, is an apt summary of where he stands today. An early musical career saw him get airplay, rave reviews and award nominations for his Roots-Rock songs, which were compared to John Prine and Steve Earl.
After leaving music to raise a family for 20 years, he initially helmed award-winning videos and tv specials for the likes of Tom Cochrane and Stompin’ Tom and Anne Murray. He then moved into comedy productions, eventually developing, producing and directing the hit television show and movie “Corner Gas” before going back on stage with his own songs in 2011 after the series wrapped.

Featured Artist:EMCEE KAVI
Wednesday, February 8 at 8 PM – 8:30 PM
Born and raised in Vancouver, Emcee Kavi has been a huge fan of hip hop since it first hit his ears. Doggystyle, 36 Chambers, Likwidation, and The Chronic were the first joints he bumped and the desire for more hasn’t ceased for him since. In February of 2014, though never having written, performed, or spat any raps before, he decided to quit his job as a Realtor and began rapping every day with a commitment to work at it for 10 years with the goal of mastering the craft. He’s almost 3 years into his decade-long journey. Emcee Kavi’s work is some of the most admired and carefully crafted in the local scene and his popularity has already begun to spread through Western Canada as he continues to perform and impress his audiences.

Featured Artist: Kamelia Merarsi
Wednesday, December 14 at 8 PM – 8:30 PM
Witness the rise of one of the best upcoming pop songwriters you may have never heard of: Kamelia Merarsi. Kamelia’s natural gift for songwriting leaves her listeners with an indelible mark on their memory: you can almost hear the songs being played on the radio as you experience them for the first time. Raw, honest and unabashedly catchy, Kamelia exudes an easy, natural charm of pure pop, with depth to go along. It isn’t uncommon upon hearing one of her songs to submissively sigh and utter something like, “Damn, I wish I had written that first.” Free admission.

At first, the audience is hooked by a familar tune, and then Chun’s subtle yet crystal clear phrases quiet the mind of the listener and coaxes the audience into a trance-like state where they take on a new appreciation of the composition being played. A feast for the senses, be sure to make this showcase set! Free admission.

Featured Artist: Chad Watson
Wednesday Nov 23 8-8:30 PM
Sharp witted & quick fingered indeed, Chad Watson blends intelligent, albeit at times humourously sardonic lyrical depth with classically trained guitar techniques and soulful rhythms to produce a highly groovable sound you’ll find yourself bouncing along to within seconds. Most people emerge from listening to one of his performances as far more charming, humourous, and good looking people. Join us as we absorb these wonderful traits by osmosis. Free admission
