British comedy darlings James & Jamesy attempt to conquer this classic of comedy. They fail.Troubled, determined, and insatiably curious, the two dive into the depths of their psyche, mining memories for clues about what’s holding them back.Rich in wordplay, comic physicality, and cleverly crafted interactive elements, Easy as Pie is uproarious fun.“Easy as Pie is a showcase of the duo’s stunning mastery of physical comedy and their uncanny ability to marry their abilities to the exploration of psychological themes that are at once serious and hilarious. This is simply an amazing show.”-Stage Door, Toronto

The night will feature many vintage and contemporary releases on vinyl from a variety of these mesmerizing and mysterious musical genres.

JAKOB: The intertwined circle and triangle is an ancient alchemical symbol representing a precise transmutation. The extension of the triangle’s points beyond the parameters of the circle indicates that the reaction will take place free from coercion or control, where the radius of the transformation is wholly dependent upon the strength of the reaction. Extending this incantation to the transformative potential of music, it is also clear that carefully curated audio atmospheres have the capacity to provoke captivating responses among audiences.

LILA GRAY
2024-03-28 19:30 - 23:00 (America/Vancouver) | The Royal, 330 Baker Street Nelson, BC V1L 4H5, Nelson, British Columbia, V1L 4H5, Canada
Thu, Mar 28 at The Royal in Nelson
7:30 p.m. PST
Raised in the mountains of BC, Lila Gray calls Vancouver home. Through her heartfelt lyrics and skillful songwriting, Lila plumbs the depths of her young adulthood and explores the trials and tribulations of queer womanhood in the 21st century. This young artist found her passion, and eternal love for music at the tender age of five, when she started her classical training through cello. Since then, Lila has picked up singing, songwriting, and guitar to establish her presence as a musician. Shortly after placing in the Top 100 of the 2021 CBC Searchlight Competition, Lila took off to Montreal to pursue a formal education in audio engineering and sound production. Lila’s unique production and intricate lyricism are masterfully executed in her sophomore album Wild Tension, which garnered a collective 10,000 streams on Spotify and a well attended coast to coast Canadian tour this past fall.

Growing up listening to influential classics such as The Beatles, James Brown, Queen, and The Kinks, while constantly finding new artists from whom to draw inspiration (Arlo Parks, Lorde, Billie Eilish, Bleachers, and Feist), Lila has managed to find her unique indie pop sound. Lila Gray collaborates regularly with other musicians (Jill Barber, Aza Nabuko, and Aysia Jordan among them) and is currently establishing herself as a music producer/audio engineer for other up and coming artists.

Arts Club: Made in Italy – Performing Arts Trail
2024-03-30 19:30 - 21:30 (America/Vancouver) | Charles Bailey Theatre, 1501 Cedar Ave, Trail, British Columbia, V1R 4C7, Canada
The Trail & District Arts Council presents a celebration of family, food, and music in Arts Club’s hilariously heartwarming musical Made in Italy at The Bailey Theatre on March 30 at 7:30 pm.
Meet Francesco Mantini, a second-generation Italian teen struggling to find his place in Jasper, Alberta. Tired of living up to his traditional Italian-immigrant father’s expectations and the constant bullying from his Canadian peers, he takes inspiration from icons Rocky Balboa and John Travolta, and reinvents himself as Frank Martin: crooner and ladies’ man.
Weaving the electrifying music of the 1970s with classic Italian tunes, this five-time Jessie Award–nominated show is equal parts comedy, music, and heart as father and son find themselves despite their differences.
A one-man show that is as buoyant and bubbly as a glass of prosecco, Made in Italy is so delightful you won’t soon fuhgeddaboudit.
