HEADLINER - OLIVER SWAIN -11:00PM:
A celebrated musician combining whimsical, spiritual and socially-conscious acoustic folk music which he likes to refer to as "chamber folk odyssey". Oliver Swain is a Juno and WCMA nominated Americana and Folk-Noir musician from Victoria BC. Oliver's live show has attracted the attention of Tamara Kater, Executive Director of Folk Music Canada who says, “Since I first discovered him in 2008, Oliver Swain has been one of my very favorite artists – especially in a live setting. His performances are a musical journey that takes you from haunting old-time melodies to soaring new songs...sweeping vocal stylings, dazzling and dramatic skills as an instrumentalist, an evening spent with Oliver Swain will leave you breathless and joyful.

THE MILES SKYE CLUB - 10:30PM - The Miles Skye Club gets you vibing to laid back drums, mellow funk basslines, flowing vocals, and Ol’ Copper’s unique R&B-folk guitar style, resulting in the band’s distinct “west coast groove” sound.

Sugar Castle - 10:00PM - Gender bending, genre defying punks from Victoria, BC.

ROTTEN APPLE RUCKUS - 9:30PM -With all the tools for a laundromat dance party, Rotten Apple Ruckus will explode string band plink and plunk all over! Their goal is shimmy, shake and cutting rugs. A jugless jug band hailing from Alabama, Quebec, and Victoria. Come stomp your boots and shake your booty to these old time ragged rhythms!

Thunderfeet - 9:00PM - Thunderfeet is a hip hop artist that is working to inspire, and entertain audiences of all ages. His music deals with growth, healing, the state of our human civilization, and spiritual wondering.
