Friday, May 2, 2025
Doors: 8pm | Show: 9pmAdvance Tickets: $30 / $35 at the door
A triple headline bill with The Secret Beach, Kacy Lee Anderson (of Kacy & Clayton, The Waverly Pickers) and Shaela Miller.
ABOUT THE SHOW
Three artists. One stage. Anything is possible.
The Secret Kacy Miller Tour brings together The Secret Beach, Kacy Lee Anderson (of Kacy & Clayton and The Waverly Pickers), and Shaela Miller — a triple-threat of songwriting brilliance and sonic mischief. Sometimes they’ll play solo, sometimes they’ll jump in on each other’s sets, and sometimes they’ll surprise even themselves. Expect harmonies, heartbreakers, foot-stompers, and the kind of moments you only get when friends hit the road together.
It’s independent. It’s unpredictable. It’s a night you’ll be glad you didn’t stay home for.

It’s been over 20 years since Daniel Lapp released an album of his own fiddle playing. Of course he hasn’t been sitting idle and quite the opposite. Since his last fiddle album, Reunion, released in 2002, he’s taught the fiddle to hundreds of students, toured and recorded with his electronic band, Lappelectro, as well as playing live shows with Rickie Lee Jones, Gord Downie, Elvis Costello and Lou Reed to name a few. He’s been around and off the continent many times and has developed an innovative program for Contemporary Music at the Victoria Conservatory of Music of which he’s the Artistic Director. His annual Home For Christmas Concert which features his 180 students has grown to two full houses in the Royal Theatre and will celebrate 23 years in 2025. No, he hasn’t been sitting around. During this time he’s also composed hundreds of fiddle tunes, collected 3000 original BC Tunes from 300 composers and started a new record label called Woodbox Records to promote, preserve and archive BC’s 150 year history of fiddle music. Now it’s time for him to play and record and he’s thrilled to share the new album with you onstage with 3 of his former students, all world travelers in their own right. And he just turned 60! Come celebrate a new era of Daniel Lapp!

Caravan World Rhythms, celebrating its 25th year of presenting the best in World Music and Dance, proudly presents
Direct from Tanzania: THE ZAWOSE QUEENS
There is spirit and fire in the music of The Zawose Queens, coming direct from Tanzania! There's the vibrations of the ancestors, coming through on traditional instruments — soaring chizeze fiddle, buzzing illimba thumb piano, ngoma drums that chatter and thunder — and voices that go deep, high and out there. There's the connection to nature, to ceremony and ritual, in their dance-inspired fusion, their blend of the organic, harmonic and modern-day electronic. There are lyrics that tell, in their native kigogo, of the passion for music, the wonders of life. Of pride in environment, in tradition. In their East African roots.
Pendo and Leah Zawose showcase the fluid polyrhythms and rapturous polyphonic singing of the Gogo (aka Wagogo) people of the arid, hilly Dodoma region of central Tanzania. The most famous exponent of this musical tradition is the late, great Dr Hukwe Zawose (Pendo’s father and Leah’s grandfather).
Maisha, the debut album by The Zawose Queens, marks the first time that women from this famous musical family take their place as lead vocalists and performers. The resulting collection of songs range from the stripped back and traditional-sounding to those treated with subtle electronic elements, with beats and drops and found sounds and switch-ups.
