BLUES CARAVAN – Saturday, May 25th – 7:30pm

On the latest edition of the annual tour presented by Ruf Records, a couple of rough-and-tumble guitarists from North America, Jimmy Bowskill a native of Canada and Bart Walker from the US, will go head-to-head with a dynamic British female singer and guitar player, Joanne Shaw Taylor, whose every show is a display of raw and emotional power. Rest assured: when this trio of hard-nosed pros step into the ring, they won’t be pulling any punches. No band is complete without a kick-ass rhythm section. Drummer Denis Palatin has been driving the Caravan for years and will be joined in the engine room by bassist Ian McKeown from the Jimmy Bowskill Band. For more information click here.

Tickets $20 available at ArtFirst! and online.

Stand – Thursday, May 30th – 7:30pm – $10


STAND, takes viewers on a journey through the waters of British Columbia’s west coast. Under threat by the proposed Enbridge Northern Gateway pipeline and tanker route is a coastline of immense beauty, pristine ecosystems, and a way of life rich in culture and history. Through the efforts of expedition stand-up paddler Norm Hann, an aboriginal high school class building their own stand-up paddleboards as a form of protest, and the powerful surfing of iconic west coast native Raph Bruhwiler, the diversity of people, landscape and wildlife that would be affected by an oil spill is articulated. STAND takes you to the core of the issue and unfurls the soul of B.C.’s west coast one paddle stroke at a time.
