SUMMARY:The Secret Kacy Miller Tour
DESCRIPTION:Doors 6:30 Show 7:00pm Minors Allowed Accompanied by an Adult \nTICKETS: https://www.eventbrite.ca/e/1304989210859 \nA triple headline bill with The Secret Beach\, Kacy Lee Anderson (of Kacy & Clayton\, The Waverly Pickers) and Shaela Miller. \n  \nThe 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. \nIt’s independent. It’s unpredictable. It’s a night you’ll be glad you didn’t stay home for. \nThe Secret Beach: \nThe Secret Beach is the new collaborative musical project fronted by songwriter/producer Micah Erenberg. Micah has collaborated with\, written\, produced and engineered for artists such as Kacy & Clayton\, Lee Ranaldo & Zoon\, Boy Golden\, The Waverley Pickers\, Fontine and Marlon Williams. He has worked with producer/engineers such as Rob Schnapf (Elliott Smith\, Dr. Dog)\, Rob Fraboni (Bob Dylan\, The Band\, Rolling Stones\, Beach Boys) and Sam Plecker (Father John Misty\, Local Natives).\nThe project is an ever-shifting group of musicians orbiting around Micah’s songs\, with a new album out this August titled “We Were Born Here\, What’s Your Excuse?”. The album was crafted under the guidance of legendary producer Rob Fraboni and is teeming with home-grown warmth; its 16 tracks casually unfurl spools of intimate texture\, hushed melodies\, and a wholly inviting atmosphere that puts the listener virtually in the same room as these timeless numbers. The songs – many of them barely cracking the two-minute mark – fly effortlessly by. \nKacy Lee Anderson \nKacy Lee Anderson is an enchantress of song whose evocative voice—both haunting and comforting—has made her a beloved figure in contemporary folk and country music. Living in Canada’s darkest Dark-Sky preserve on her family cattle ranch in Saskatchewan\, Anderson has become a celestial wonder in her own right. She delivers spellbinding performances\, whether playing solo\, with her band The Waverley Pickers\, or as one half of the acclaimed Canadian duo Kacy & Clayton. \nHer most recent work\, Early Hits (2025)\, recorded with The Waverley Pickers\, showcases her songwriting with a masterful union of sonic nostalgia and modern sensibility—channeling the timeless storytelling tradition of artists like Sandy Denny\, Iris DeMent\, and Merle Haggard. \nShe has shared the stage with notable artists such as The Deep Dark Woods\, The Sadies\, The Secret Beach\, Richard Thompson\, and Wilco. Jeff Tweedy of Wilco\, a Grammy winner\, has also been a strong advocate for her career\, producing two of her albums. Over the past decade\, Anderson has toured extensively\, opening for Ray LaMontagne\, William Prince\, Colter Wall\, The Decemberists\, Bahamas\, and others. She has also performed at renowned festivals such as Hardly Strictly Bluegrass and MerleFest and been nominated for multiple JUNO awards. \nShaela Miller \nShaela Miller’s years spent doing good country music work are safely etched into public consciousness. A turn at this point is by no means an undoing\, but a welcome lead into new territory. Miller’s fast-rising path is set to be amplified by a sonic reintroduction to one of Alberta’s best voices and most sincere stage personalities. \nOn the heels of a 1st Place Project WILD finish\, years of top-tier folk festival circuiting\, TV placements like HBO’s True Blood\, and many other accomplishments\, Shaela is set for much more in 2023. \nEarly dreams stay in the blood. Pulsating drum beats meet ring-spun synthesizers balanced by steel guitar professions as the listener is introduced to a captivating story. It’s one of a dual world – a binary of New Wave and Classic Country – the expression that reared a young songwriter years ago. For Shaela\, it’s a self-indulgent trip back to a world of music she’s been patiently waiting to explore. The listener should take comfort in feeling a little tense\, but this is no sleight of hand. It’s all from the deep well of emotion where Shaela lives as a songwriter. Where dreams go unspent\, the host can be left to wither. Take a small comfort knowing that Shaela is guiding her own career path as every artist should – with no fear of expectations. \nTICKETS: https://www.eventbrite.ca/e/1304989210859

SUMMARY:Mother Sun with Sam Tudor at The Effie
DESCRIPTION:TICKETS: https://www.eventbrite.ca/e/mother-sun-sam-tudor-live-at-the-effie-arts-collective-tickets-1339184650339 \nMother Sun create melodic and adventurous rock n roll from the sprawling interior desert of Kamloops BC Canada. The four piece has shaped their sound around idiosyncratic songs while burrowing in realms of dreamy psych\, trippy folk\, motorik power pop and jazz influenced art rock. The band released their fourth record ‘Meadow 6’ via Earth Libraries and Divine Bovine Records in October 2024. Mother Sun toured Japan in support of the album in September and October 2024\, playing 14 shows in small venues around the country\, with Canadian tour dates to follow in spring 2025. The band has toured western Canada consistently since 2018\, appearing at numerous festivals such as Khatsalano (Vancouver)\, Big Winter Classic (Calgary) Between the Peaks (Rossland)\, and Treefort (Boise\, Idaho). The band has had several songs appear on Showtime TV series Shameless and shared stages with Dead Ghosts\, Vinyl Williams\, the Sadies\, the Breathing Effect and Ghostwoman. \nSam Tudor is both an individual and a project involving a group of friends in Canada. The underpinnings of the songs are genre-less; jazz players join forces with Eno inspired beats while acoustic guitars meet distorted synths. What unifies the project is Tudor’s distinct voice: a sandy\, melancholic narrator\, leaning in close with confessional and cathartic writing. The band’s live show is reverent and at times bombastic – a celebration of community done with an easy virtuosity born from years playing music together. The band’s latest release is their 2024 EP Hidden Minute. Their most recent full length album\, Two Half Words\, was released in 2021. Tudor and the band have toured in Canada\, Japan\, the United States and more. They have received coverage and acclaim from VICE Magazine\, KEXP Radio\, Exclaim Magazine\, CBC Afterdark\, The Vancouver Sun and others.
