These Indigenous peoples have been on this land since time immemorial and are still here today. Most of us are uninvited guests here on this land and it is a great privilege we have to be able to create here.

We committed to creating a sex positive, anti-racist, queer-friendly, body positive and accessible environment at my shows.

Join Dockside, Blush and Idle Lane for an alternative rock show that only a fool would miss. Wear your best hat, and come enjoy some amazing music.  
Dockside
Dockside is a co-op mission to write some of the coolest songs you’ve ever heard. Grounded in our garage band roots, Andres Nimegeers, Ben Cripps, Matt Seale, and Tanner Vanin, share a musical chemistry that can only be described as ‘trill’. The influences of The Strokes, Dominic Fike, and Weezer can be heard in our live sounding mixes, funky guitar riffs, creative rock drums, and smooth bass lines. 
Blush
A coastal Canadian alt-indie rock band that weaves together crunchy textures, haunting electronics, and ethereal melodies. Pulling inspirations from a wide variety of Alternative, Indie, Shoegaze, and Folk music. The band was formed in late 2023 by vocalist, guitarist, and songwriter Anton Wilson, percussionist Eric Josephs, keyboardist Renata Baldwin, and bassist Rosie Said.  Blush released their debut EP “Still Wet” February 2nd of 2024 & “Blush. - Live from Silverside” on September 10th of the same year.
Idle Lane
An alternative rock powder keg of venom, Idle Lane’s sound marries the heavy with the feeling. With double guitar attacks, robust grooves, and crunchy harmonies, their music is reminiscent of the classic rock acts of the ‘70s and ‘90s. If you haven’t heard them live, you haven’t heard them at all
