Henry Nozuka!

Conor Gains

On his first solo full length album, "Compass" Singer/Songwriter Conor Gains proves himself deeply devoted to making uncompromisingly Soulful music that transcends all Genres. Gains' Label Debut Marks the follow-up to the Self-Released Sophomore album, "Run Away with the Night.", which sparked interest in the young artist's music. In 2016 Gains' album closing song, "Leave it on the Line" won the Cobalt Prize at the Maples Blues Awards. This National prize is designed to highlight innovation and creativity in Songwriting. This is the impression one gets while listening to The Conor Gains Band. The deep respect of Roots, Jazz, and Blues music paired with the Soulful, adventurous exploration of Contemporary Music gives Gains' songs an air of familiarity while listening to something completely unique and transcendental.

Jeremy Legault is a Singer-Songwriter, Conscious Music Producer, Intentional Event Organizer, Multi-Instrumentalist and Mix Engineer

Jeremy started playing guitar when he was years 11 old and immediately became obsessed with making music. Jeremy has acquired various musical skill sets through self taught methodology and formal schooling. Through his consistent networking and study (playing instruments, performing and running a studio), Jeremy has shared his gifts on various stages, festivals, and studios around the world. Jeremy plays a soulful blend of Roots-Reggae, Folk, Rock, Conscious Hip Hop and Medicine Music. 

He offers an ecstatic live set which include interactive sing-alongs with the audience.

Staycation!

Doors at 8:30. Staycation will be releasing their debut, self-titled album and are very excited to celebrate it with you :)
Special guests POM will be doing a sweet little opening set too.

STAYCATION are a collection of friends that initially got together to play a show on Toronto Island but had so much fun they became a real band. 4 years and about 5 band names later they're settling into their own comfy couch groove defined by catchy melodies, twisted cliches, and open improv sections. They've performed with some of Toronto's finest musicians including Christine Bougie, Karen Ng, Dave Clark, Kevin Breit and plan on having some special guests up to jam at the show too!
