SUMMARY:SUMMER KICKS CONCERT SERIES - TINA LEON
DESCRIPTION:Kicking Horse Culture is proud to present the Summer Kicks 2025 season. \nEvery summer\, people from all over gather in Golden to enjoy free Wednesday evening Summer Kicks concerts . The lineup includes both touring bands and local talent\, providing a lively atmosphere with great music. The concerts take place at Keith King Park from 6:00 to 9:00 pm. Attendees are advised to bring a chair or blanket as seating is limited but fun is guaranteed! \nAbout The Event\nHaving already sung and collaborated with Stevie Wonder\, DJ Champion and Garou under the artist name Marie-Christine Depestre\, she now appears in a new light\, more authentic and full of life than ever. In reference to the nickname given to her by her family and in homage to her maternal grandmother\, this choice of a new stage name is a way for her to fully express her personality\, to assert her art and thus to find a form of balance. \nThe concept for EP’s Push and Pull is partially inspired by what she describes as her “duality”— off the stage she is more shy and introspective\, but when she performs she is able to let loose her “inner beast.” When reflecting on this new work’s intent\, she says\, “It takes some time to figure out what you want and don’t want. There comes a time when you ask yourself certain hard questions and you decide to take action towards what you truly want for your future. That is when you begin to bloom into who you want to be.” \nTina Leon uses her music to reconcile between the fluctuating nature of seemingly conflicting emotions\, desires\, likes and dislikes. Her work confronts the difficult questions we might ask ourselves: “Where am I in my life?”/“What do I want?”/“Who is the person I have become?”
