SCENE AND HEARD showcases the independent music scene here in Vancouver. We interview some of our favourite local artists, and ‘Last Week in Music’ highlights some of the concerts happening around the city.

Hey everyone! My first assignment as Christine’s replacement for the month was the Live At Squamish festival this past weekend at the Logger Sports Grounds in Squamish. The line up was incredibly varied and included some great Vancouver and BC bands as well as Canadian and international bands and DJs. It was an amazing experience and I can’t wait for it happen again next year!

THIS WEEK IN MUSIC: It’s looking like a good (and busy) one! Tonight is either The Tallest Man On Earth at the Rickshaw or Daniel, Fred and Julie at the Biltmore; Thursday is the first Peak Performance Project Showcase at the Red Room (featuring Jess Hill, Bodhi Jones, Vince Vaccaro, and Acres of Lions); Analog Bell Service, Aunts & Uncles and Tariq at the Railway on Friday; Saturday I’ll be back at the Railway for Redbird; and Monday is Crooked Fingers with guest Shane Abram (of the Awkward Stage) at the Biltmore.

Thanks for an amazing time, Live At Squamish crew! See you next year, Square!
