SUMMARY:Ali Hassan: Does This Taste Funny?
DESCRIPTION:Ali Hassan’s career plans started off as simply as anyone’s: become a chef\, get a food show on television\, get a second food show on television\, be the face of the network and have oven mitts with his face on them. But sometimes things get in the way of your dreams: like your parents’ disappointment\, your family of four children and your successful comedy career. \nThis show is a hilarious exposition of Ali’s journey in and out of the culinary world in which he spent 12 years. Think Eat\, Pray\, Love….minus the Prayer. \nAdult: $30; Senior: $27; Under 30: $15 \nThe Capitol Theatre

Here is a writer that takes you on a tour of your own feelings in a way that leaves you grasping for your own heart just to make sure it’s still in your chest. His work has become a staple in schools for both its impact and reach. Shane curates a kind of art gallery that displays sculptures of the human experience each time he speaks.

SUMMARY:L’OMELETTE with HONEYDRIPPER
DESCRIPTION:L’omelette weaves soul\, jazz and punk into colourful\, honest\, genre-fluid tapestries. The Calgary art-rockers dart between prog and new-wave rock rhythms and synth-led dance pop\, tethered by commanding melodies and current concepts. Meg Benedict’s vocal\, sax and synth stylings are underpinned by guitarist Alex Klipper’s thoughtful and driving riffs; Matthew Lowe’s infectiously melodic bass lines; and Peter Cormier’s diamond-cut drumming and backup vocals. With them\, there’s always something vivacious\, heady\, danceable and thought-provoking to chew on. \nHoneydripper (aka Steven Gevenich) is an Edmonton based producer\, musician\, and DJ. A guitarist by trade\, he has spent well over a decade heavily involved in live music\, taking inspiration and experience from a diverse background in jazz\, funk\, and roots music. However a love for dance music and underground culture sparked the way to a solo house music project in the spring of 2017. Honeydripper’s productions are a medley of lush chords\, dusty drum samples\, sultry vocal hooks\, deep bass lines\, and worldly percussion\, all carefully detailed with a signature emotion and subtlety. Add a touch of lo-fi and you get warm and cozy house beats designed for long summer nights and early morning dance floors.

SUMMARY:DJ Civillian [Vancouver] – Live in Nelson
DESCRIPTION:Civillian [Vancouver] \n– Shambhala / Bass Coast / Wicked Woods – \nEclectic is an understatement when trying to describe the sound of Civillian. While always staying true to his roots in Hip Hop\, his taste and collection have expanded exponentially to allow him to become a party-rocking chameleon – no situation outside of his scope. Beside his proven taste and wide range in selection\, his ability to integrate elements of Turntablism into a dance-floor friendly set is what separates him from other DJ’s. Whether it’s the main stage\, an impromptu sunrise set\, house party or underground rave\, Civillian is always prepared. \nVenue: Finley’s Bar & Grill \nPK Sound by Live Harmonics \nSupporting Acts: \nFluxo & Dubconscious \nLuminesce \nWax Headroom \nDoors 10pm \nFirst tickets $10

Profoundly influenced by Chicago house music\, Honeydripper draws elements of jazz\, funk\, and soul into a mature catalogue\, that focuses more on subtly and feeling than reaction.
