SUMMARY:Stephen Hamm the Theremin Man Live at The Effie
DESCRIPTION:“Hamm is a commanding presence and with his theremin he creates a swirling\, ethereal soundtrack of the cosmos.” – Mike Usinger \n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nTICKETS: https://www.eventbrite.ca/e/stephen-hamm-the-theremin-man-live-at-the-effie-kamloops-tickets-887272083687 \nDoors 7pm Show 7:30pm \n$15+ eventbrite fees in advance $20 at the door \nLicenced Venue – Minors Allowed accompanied by an Adult \nA legendary member of the Vancouver Music scene for over thirty years\, Stephen Hamm continues a prolific\, adventurous musical career and has become one of Canada’s most unforgettable and beloved performers. Stephen has played in bands like Slow\, Canned Hamm and Nardwuar And The Evaporators. \nA multi instrumentalist\, Stephen Hamm has shifted his focus to mastering the theremin. The theremin is an early electronic instrument that is touchless: a thereminist interacts with magnetic fields around the two antennae on a theremin rather than actually touching the instrument. Stephen has been thrilling audiences at clubs and festivals with his wildly creative solo show based around theremin and synthesizer and has been taking them on an electro musical journey into new abstract dimensions of sound! \nTICKETS: https://www.eventbrite.ca/e/stephen-hamm-the-theremin-man-live-at-the-effie-kamloops-tickets-887272083687

SUMMARY:Forest Ray/Highland Eyeway/Jared Doherty Live at The Effie
DESCRIPTION:Seattle’s psych folk band Forest Ray are floating through BC touring their new record Windfucker (Jebivjetar) & making a stop in Kamloops April 18th – Not one to miss! Support from Vancouver’s dreamy psych sludge purveyors Highland Eyeway and local Jared Doherty \n\n\nDOORS 7 \nBANDS 7:30 \nALL AGES – MINORS ALLOWED ACCOMPANIED BY AN ADULT TIL 10PM \n$15+eventbrite fees \nTICKETS:  https://www.eventbrite.ca/e/forest-ray-highland-eyeway-jared-doherty-live-at-the-effie-tickets-870221876057 \nFOREST RAY \nSeattle psych folk band\, Forest Ray\, began as a recording project in 2015\, combining guitar driven psych rock with elements of garage rock\, folk rock and organ-laden pop. They’ve been described as “Brit-pop gone country” or as “..The Band covering Beatles songs no one knew existed.” (Tony Kay\, Washington’s Artist Home blog). The group’s sound has evolved into spaced-out\, down to earth rock n’ roll\, that feels “like a perfect companion for a long dusty road trip”. \nTheir sixth studio album\, Windfucker\, was released in January 2024 after they completed their first European tour through six countries (Croatia\, Slovenia\, Austria\, Czech Republic\, Germany and Switzerland) over five weeks. \n“The new album from the Seattle outfit is a solid blend of Americana\, psych and indie-rock. Peter Sumic’s classic storytelling style is driven by a rich sonic tapestry of guitar\, mandolin\, banjo\, pedal steel\, harmonica and percussion\, making Windfucker (jebivjetar) feel like a perfect companion for a long\, dusty road trip.” (Chris Sanley\,KEXP) \nLISTEN: https://open.spotify.com/artist/6aHS1ijoQqNunPy8K2zzAp \nHIGHLAND EYEWAY \nLucid\, psychedelic dreamscapes evoked by Highland Eyeway draw the listener into other-wordly dimensions with their new release “Spirit Wrangler EP”. \nThe EP features 5 songs that are introduced by the first track “(transmission)” which attunes the listener for saturated\, synesthesia-producing tones that are present throughout the listening. Picture meeting a foreign spirit on an alternate planet travelled to in a dream. \nHighland Eyeway was conceived in North Vancouver\, Canada (traditional territories of the Musqueam\, Squamish\, and Tseil-Waututh First Peoples) in September 2014. Influenced by mystical forest canyons with pulsing moss-covered trees that hold secrets for its dwellers\, the band aimed to acknowledge these patterns by reflecting them in sound. Bands like Dead Meadow\, Dinosaur Jr.\, The Brian Jonestown Massacre\, and Stereolab\, along with experimental themes produced by Boards of Canada helped shape Highland Eyeway’s tone and deliverance. \nLISTEN: https://open.spotify.com/artist/0pXwcelUYbi9Om1Rzyw0YS \nJARED DOHERTY \nJared Doherty is singing songs in Kamloops BC. Enlisting the rhythm section of Kamal Morelli on bass and Mark Fagg on drums\, the three piece brings to life Jared’s home recorded arrangements showcased most recently on 2022’s full length ‘Fly a Kite’. \nLISTEN: https://open.spotify.com/artist/67HaDGrPqIPeNLy1B8R64J \nDOORS 7 \nBANDS 7:30 \nALL AGES – MINORS ALLOWED ACCOMPANIED BY AN ADULT TIL 10PM \n$15+eventbrite fees \nTICKETS:  https://www.eventbrite.ca/e/forest-ray-highland-eyeway-jared-doherty-live-at-the-effie-tickets-870221876057 \n\n\n

SUMMARY:Hell On Wheelz Presents "What The Effie" Stand Up Comedy Show
DESCRIPTION:TICKETS: https://www.eventbrite.com/e/hell-on-wheelz-presents-what-the-effie-stand-up-comedy-early-show-tickets-860621822037 \n$20 + eventbrite fees \nDoors 6:30\, Comedy 7pm \nRyan Lachance\, Chris Gaskin and their good friend Jesse D are coming your way with their show of epic proportions “Hell on Wheelz” \nAll three of these comedians have lived through the sunshine and the rain of this journey we call life and have come through the other side with one piece of knowledge they can agree on: Laughter is THE best medicine. We believe in the power of laughter to heal and create unity within ourselves and our communities which is why one of the goals of this show is to include as many up-and-coming talents as we can along the way! \nAlso\, we know the value of never taking ourselves too seriously. Whether it’s the unique perspective of Ryan Lachance bringing the able bodied into his world for even just a moment\, the lavishly outrageous storytelling of Chris Griffin which will have you at the tip of your seat to find out what’s waiting just around the corner of his next epic\, or the subtle yet terrifying inside thoughts of Jesse D\, there is truly something for all to leave smiling about after this show. You can miss out if you want but its your funeral! \n\n\nRyan Lachance is a professional stand-up comedian from White Rock\, British Columbia\, who is a hilarious storyteller and seasoned performer with over 25 years of stage experience. \nIncorporating his unique perspective as a comic living with quad-spastic cerebral palsy\, Ryan shares intensely personal anecdotes from his family life growing up in Alberta and BC. He interweaves the everyday joys and serious challenges he has faced while masterfully spinning it all into a hilariously entertaining\, totally unique and memorable performance. \nRyan has established himself as a mainstay of the Vancouver Comedy Scene\, headlining local shows and touring throughout Canada. Ryan served as a feature performer at the Vancouver Fringe Festival\, headlined at House of Comedy\, performed at the Halifax comedy festival in 2023\, and is a regular headline and feature act at Yuk Yuk’s\, House of Comedy\, and Just for Laughs. Even more recently\, Ryan collaborated on the Just for Laughs Best of the West comedy album compilation! \n\n\n\n\nJESSE D \nJesse DeWispelaere is a 31-year-old father of four beautiful children. He was born and raised on Vancouver Island. After fighting a decade and a half’s battle with addiction he found one thing that ultimately made a difference in his life\, the life of his loved ones\, and the society he grew up in… art. Through his facets of stand-up comedy\, music\, and poetry he has learned that there truly is no problem that a laugh\, a poem\, and some rhythm can’t help you carry! Some of Jesse’s most recent accomplishments are performing as an opener at yuk yuks\, and the Nanaimo Fringe Festival. After just awakening to his calling\, he has found that he truly is the poet who didn’t know it. \nTICKETS: https://www.eventbrite.com/e/hell-on-wheelz-presents-what-the-effie-stand-up-comedy-early-show-tickets-860621822037 \n$20 + eventbrite fees \nDoors 6:30\, Comedy 7pm

SOLD OUT \nAll Ages Event.  \nDaniel Champagne lives and breathes live music. The Australian virtuoso has been described as “the finest guitar player of this generation”\, “a leading light in acoustic music” and “a performer that must be seen to be believed” and from March to June 2024\, music lovers across Canada will be treated to an intimate live experience not to be missed! \nGrowing up in the Bega Valley\, on the Far South Coast of New South Wales Australia\, the story goes that the young singer-songwriter and one of a kind guitar virtuoso first picked up his instrument of choice as a 5-year-old following in the footsteps of a musical father. He began writing songs at 12\, training classically throughout his teens and performing wherever he could\, honing his craft and developing the dynamite live show that he is renowned for today. At 18 he finished school\, turned professional and hit the road without looking back. \nThe following 15 years have seen him independently release 7 studio albums\, tour relentlessly around the globe\, play some of the biggest festivals under the sun and share stages with the likes of Tommy Emmanuel\, INXS\, John Butler\, Lucinda Williams\, Ani DiFranco\, Judy Collins and Rodrigo y Gabriela. \nPlaying upwards of 250 shows a year\, Daniel is passionate about spreading live music around the world and on the back of a sold out 2022 tour tour\, his return trip will include 56 shows from Vancouver Island all the way out to Newfoundland! \nWHAT THE PRESS SAY.. \n“The word Prodigy seems to entirely fall short of this soft-spoken young man’s skills\, he coaxes sounds and melodies out of his instrument that literally drop jaws.” The Calgary Herald\, CANADA \n“Today I saw the future of Folk – Festival goers flocking in the thousands towards the main stage to witness a young musical phenomenon from Australia dish out an absolute show-stopper.” The Firefly Column\, USA \n“Daniel Champagne is a crossroads. Fusing the strong traditions of Blues\, Folk and other roots art with pop showmanship and admirable lyrical ability. I firmly believe that he will become an ambassador for roots music in a time where it desperately needs representation.” The Indie Blender\, CANADA \n“reinventing roots guitar” Rhythms Magazine\, AUSTRALIA \n“Watching Daniel Champagne perform is a once in a lifetime experience. He is a true prodigy that plays like no one else could possibly play unless they spent at least two lifetimes studying the art.” BW Review\, NEW ZEALAND \n“Daniel Champagne exudes a natural ease on stage\, as he sings poignant lyrics and beautifully crafted melodies that invariably whisk the heart up with grand romanticism. Coupled with an exhilarating guitar talent that transcends mere acoustic playing to replicate a whole band\, Champagne is just magical” Themusic.com.au\, AUSTRALIA \n“You feel as if he just invented the instrument yesterday and was discovering its possibilities afresh” Ted Gioia (American jazz critic and music historian) \nBOTH SHOWS SOLD OUT
