Glasgow Square Green Room Sessions: Andre Pettipas and Elyse Aeryn

Glasgow Square Green Room Sessions:

Andre Pettipas and Elyse Aeryn

 

Picture this: An intimate listening room experience with breathtaking views of New Glasgow’s East River at sunset, featuring performers and songwriters from across Nova Scotia, including local artists from right here in our beautiful hometown.

Glasgow Square Green Room Sessions invite you to step behind the curtain and venture backstage for a series of personal and exclusive performances that allow songs, stories, and connection to thrive between artist and audience. These sessions focus on promoting East Coast talent, with each installment featuring two stripped-down sets of music from singer-songwriters or small groups.

Tickets are very limited, with only 35 seats available for each night.

Please note that while all ages are welcome to attend, alcohol will be served.

On July 7th, bring the party backstage as we're joined by rising East Coast indie stars Andre Pettipas and Elyse Aeryn. 

 

ANDRE PETTIPAS

Known for his hooks, live performance and fronting “Grease Coast Rock N’ Roll” band, Andre Pettipas and The Giants; There is only one word that comes to mind when you see Andre onstage: showman. Musical talent aside, this young man has presence that is reminiscent of a young Brian Setzer, working the stage and the room with an irresistible charisma. It’s not all theatrics with these boys though, they do have the musical chops to go with it.” -B Lynn Hartling/Canadian Beats

After winning 2017’s Q104 Homegrown Challenge, Andre Pettipas and The Giants showcased at numerous industry shindigs, including Canadian Music Week in Toronto and the 2018 Live at Heart festival in Sweden, and toured relentlessly.

Along the way, they’ve gained a reputation as an incredibly tight live act, and as a band that routinely crank out the kind of eminently hooky, sing a long, anthems that stick in your mind and just won’t let go – a reputation that not only got producer Brian Moncarz’s (Alice Cooper, Our Lady Peace) attention but drew a variety of talented and enthusiastic musical guests to the table on their new album 'No Fools, No Fun.'

With their 'take no prisoners' live performances, stellar musicianship, and habit of finding grist for the songwriting mill in everything from southern rock to pop and prog, Andre Pettipas and The Giants are a rarity – an act who absolutely refuse to let anything take the fun out of their creative process and performances on record or on stage, and with absolutely no fear of stepping outside of the box to get their message across.

ELYSE AERYN

Elyse Aeryn is emerging on the Canadian music scene with a fresh yet nostalgic sound. Influenced by rock classics like Stevie Nicks while capturing the essence of 90s female vocalists like Alanis Morissette and Natalie Merchant, Aeryn is blending the decades to mix up an alternative-country-rock cocktail that will have you asking for a double.

With a big sound and an undeniable stage presence, her and guitarist Garrett Taylor serve up an engaging live experience as they fuse powerful vocals and electrifying riffs.

After leaving the corporate world to pursue a passion for songwriting, music production, and performing, Aeryn is wasting no time. Sharing the stage with the likes of Andre Pettipas and The Giants, Roxy and The Underground Soul Sound, The Town Heroes, and more, expect to hear more of Elyse Aeryn as she makes a name for herself across the Maritimes and beyond.

Watch for Elyse Aeryn’s first full length album in early 2023 with the next single "Wildcard" releasing this May.
