The best Psychedelic Band on the coast!!!

I am a 28 year old singer Country/Folk artist and I would say my music brings a blend of nostalgic storytelling and raw emotion and grit. I am inspired by icons like Dolly Parton and Alan Jackson and modern icons like Lainey Wilson and Kacey Musgraves, with many of these influences coming across in my own music.

Born and raised in Ireland as the youngest of three siblings and the only girl, I grew up surrounded by love, family and friends and my songs reflect this. I have been singing since I was 6 years old before moving to Vancouver last year. My songs turn my lived experiences into music that feels both deeply personal to me and universally relatable. I worked hard this year to record my music and build my band, trying to get my name out there wherever I can. My next step is to bring our sound to venues across Canada and showcase what we have been working on to a wider audience.

Step into a night built on groove and gravity. At the heart of it,  TONIC: our house and headlining live band of elite musicians riding Fender Rhodes and new sonic delights through deep, hypnotic pockets — the kind of playing that makes a room move before it knows why. The journey opens wide. 

Funk and Hip-Hop breaks may merge with hypnotic baselines, and a mesmerizing Mingus mantra pops up while EDM pulses push the anticipated energy onto a full dance floor. Expect the unexpected; rest assured in the belief that your spidery senses knew all along.

DJs Pulpo and Hooker embrace the live sound before and after venturing into global dance territories, keeping the floor guessing — never predictable, but always moving.

This isn't a genre night. It's a freestyle voyage for anyone who trusts a groove over a label — seasoned heads who remember when Hammond and Fender organs ruled the underground will love it, as will all those hungry for something real, live, and loud.

The Acid Lounge: DJs and musicianship meet movement. Come loose. Leave changed

The History of Gunpowder is an eight-piece, independent and experimental freak-out orchestra based in Vancouver.

Boasting 4 studio albums, the group is currently completing their fifth LP, The Epileptic Vol II, and recently released Swallows, a feature-length film and video album recorded live-off-the-floor in the Weird Church in Cumberland, BC.

Swallows capitalizes on the acoustic properties of the church using its famed pipe organ from the 19th century coupled with choral vocal additions to the core musicians. The result? An intimate yet behemoth work of art with deep forays into community, music and art.

A staple of the Canadian live scene, The History of Gunpowder is devoted to constantly pushing the envelope on stage and in the studio and has built a community around them that consists of some of the best musicians in Canada. The group has garnered an exciting international presence through their unique compositions and gritty vocals with fan bases worldwide who are entranced by their ambitious take of the musical arts, which is always expanding and reaching new (and often chaotic) heights and are preparing for their third European tour.

The music of The History is couched in traditional blues and played with traditional but highly affected instruments. The band’s extensive use of loops and drones is contrasted by heavy, swinging passages that carry long and winding melodies. Drawing inspiration from blues, soul, jazz, funk and punk, this group emerges as a delicate balance between order and chaos.

Their international presence includes headlining tours in Italy and the EU. They have deep roots in the Montreal circus and burlesque communities. Noteworthy performances include co-headlining the Hollywood Theatre with The Harpoonist and the Axe Murderer, as well as spearheading and headlining Vancouver’s Annual Freakout Circus Extravaganza, now celebrating its fifth year of mesmerizing audiences
