The Seaside Music Festival presents BC's Tragically Hip Cover Band Nautical Disaster
Saturday June 20, 8:00pm
ANAF #302
Nautical Disaster was formed in 2018 by frontman Ryan LeBlanc, after hearing enough people at karaoke nights tell him to start his own Tragically Hip tribute act. With vocals set, finding the musicians wasn't tough. Rodney VanSpengen (Drums) has been with the project since the beginning, with Harry Somers (Bass/Vocals) joining about 8 months in, Stéphane Côté (Guitar/Vocals) has been with the band for two years but knew most of the members personally before joining, and Graham Francis (Guitar) joined us in 2025. The Band has survived the Covid Lockdown, and our lead singer getting married! Played shows on beaches, docks, boathouses, backyards & festivals, during heat domes & atmospheric rivers. A tight-knit group of guys who love what we do, professional and easy to work with.

17 Black Entertainment LTD

Join us in celebrating 90 years of impact and the future ahead. This event will feature entertainment, celebrations and speeches including from the Foundation’s new CEO Ian Bird, and Sandra Richardson who will be retiring this fall after 25 years in the role.
The Victoria Foundation is excited to welcome Ben Nemtin home to Victoria as our keynote speaker. Ben is a #1 New York Times bestselling author, global motivational speaker and co-star of The Buried Life. His powerful story and message of purpose, resilience and fearless goal‑setting have inspired audiences around the world.
About our Keynote Speaker, Ben Nemtin

Ben Nemtin is the #1 New York Times bestselling author of What Do You Want to Do Before You Die? and creator of The Bucket List Journal. He was ranked the #2 Motivational Speaker in the world by Global Gurus and co-starred in the hit TV show The Buried Life. Over half of Fortune 100 companies have turned to Ben to inspire their teams around purpose, change, and fearless goal-setting.Ben’s message lives in radical possibility. In university, he was blindsided by depression and forced to leave school. Searching for a way forward, he and three friends wrote the world’s greatest bucket list and set off in a rickety RV to chase it. They never imagined it would inspire a global movement.Their mission became simple: for every dream they achieved, they helped a stranger achieve theirs. From playing basketball with President Obama and surviving on a deserted island, to reuniting a father and son after 17 years and surprising a young girl with a life-changing bionic arm.Oprah called their mission “truly inspiring,” while The Today Show put it simply: it’s about living with purpose. Ben believes the fastest way to grow, personally and professionally, is to connect to purpose.

Two forces unite. One massive international headliner. Zero compromises.
On Friday, August 14th, Victoria’s techno underground shifts into high gear. Synergic Rave joins forces with Vancouver’s hard techno promoter, Livid Underground, to bring a massive European producer and DJ - MOSMOZ straight to the capital.

His music has been released on labels such as Revive, Energic, Whalien and Powertrance, with collaborations alongside Omaks, Wanton, DJ Caline and DJ Schncake, and an official remix for Lessss. His tracks are supported by artists including Restricted, I Hate Models, Novah, Trym, Byørn, Cloudy, Azyr, Vortek’s and Amelie Lens. Known for explosive DJ sets, Mosmoz has performed across France, Canada, Germany, Turkey, Italy, Spain and the UK, including festivals like Insane Festival, Delta Festival and Dream Nation
LIVID has been importing the darkest, fastest, and most relentless techno sounds in Vancouver, and for this collaboration they are crossing the water to help us transform The Downbeat into a high-velocity sweatbox fueled by hard techno, peak-time energy, industrial, and hard bounce.

The “Mysticssippi Blues Man” and one of Canada’s most revered and distinctive musical voices brings his world-renowned live show to intimate venues across British Columbia!
Harry Manx has spent decades carving out a singular musical path. He is known for his extraordinary ability to fuse deep blues grooves with the spiritual depth of Indian classical music. Switching effortlessly between slide guitar, harmonica, banjo, and the remarkable Mohan veena — a 20-stringed instrument taught to him by Indian master Vishwa Mohan Bhatt — Manx creates performances that are immersive, transportive, and deeply human.

“Watching Harry play tonight I feel like I learned something new …. ”
Bruce Springsteen
Harry Manx is an artist that critics have occasionally had a hard time getting their minds around. His unique amalgam of blues and other American roots music, classical Indian forms, and bits of rock, pop, and folk makes him difficult to pigeonhole, and self-appointed gatekeepers of those traditions sometimes bemoan his lack of purity, stubbornly missing the point. But Manx’s trip is really quite easy to grasp: He’s an accomplished and adventurous lap-slide guitarist – whether playing a National resonator, a solidbody lap-steel, a modified banjo or cigar-box guitar, or his signature 20-string Mohan Veena – and a compelling singer with a rich, warm, and soulful voice who writes intelligent and compassionate songs and puts them over with heartfelt conviction.”

 
Barry Cleveland, Guitar Player Magazine
 
There are concerts, and then there are rare musical gatherings that feel quietly profound. Harry Manx creates the latter. This is music that doesn’t rush, doesn’t shout, and doesn’t rely on spectacle — instead, it invites you to listen deeply, feel fully, and leave changed. Audiences don’t just attend a Harry Manx show; they experience it. These nights linger long after the final note fades, becoming the kind of concert people talk about for years. If you value artistry, atmosphere, and the rare magic that happens when a room truly listens, this is a performance you’ll want to be part of.
