Lemon Bucket Orkestra: Cuckoo
2024-10-19 19:30 - 21:00 | Imperial Theatre, 12 King Square S., Saint John
Lemon Bucket Orkestra are Toronto’s original guerrilla-folk party-punk massive. The multi-award-winning ensemble has been heralded as a groundbreaking, genre-bending phenomenon by media and fans alike, and over the past 13 years they have performed all over the world from WOMAD in New Zealand and Pohoda in Slovakia, to Festival D’Été in Québec City, and Luminato in Toronto. The Guardian proclaimed that their performances are “gorgeously sung and passionately played” and The New York Times declared them “charismatic…handsome and ambitious.”
Equal parts exhilarating precision and reckless abandon, LBO’s live shows are a truly immersive experience ranging from the ecstatic to the cathartic and all points in between. Now they have been weaving that unique blend of energy and emotion onto their upcoming album Cuckoo. Set for release in May 2024, the new record pens strong lines through powerful Ukrainian polyphony, driving Balkan rhythms, and a deep undertone of modern Western sensibilities. This mixture of Eastern Europe and the America’s is further elevated with the special feature of Macedonian master trumpeter, hailing from Kocani Orkestar, Nizo Alimov.

A team of panelists will explore ideas around these systems of oppression and connect them to basic needs, gender, race, and environmental issues. Questions and participation from the audience is strongly encouraged.

Inclusivity and accessibility are our top priorities. If you’d like more information about Haven Music Hall please email hello@havenmusichall.com or visit www.havenmusichall.com.

Trans-Canada Highwaymen
2024-10-26 19:30 - 21:00 | Imperial Theatre, 12 King Square S., Saint John
The Trans-Canada Highwaymen (TCH) is a super group (your words – not mine) consisting of Moe Berg (TPOH), Chris Murphy (Sloan), Craig Northey (Odds) and Steven Page (Ex-BNL). Four guys who have known each other for (ahem) decades now all of whom have written songs that have contributed to Canadian culture.
They started playing shows together as TCH in 2017. At the shows, each take turns singing their own hit songs and whoever is not singing lead becomes the backing band for whoever is singing. With all four bringing their A material, it’s a set list full of bangers.
Everyone who has seen the show has been knocked out. Audiences get the opportunity to hear a setlist full of Can-Rock Classics and it also gives Moe, Chris, Craig and Steven a opportunity to hang out together, laugh their heads off and put that energy into the TCH live shows.
In keeping with their credo, “Play the hits!”, TCH have recorded an album of Canadian classics from 1969-1975 called The Trans-Canada Highwaymen Explosive Hits Vol. 1. The songs from that era and the packaging they’ve created are an homage to the K-Tel compilation records of the 1970’s.
On this album, you’ll hear Steven sing “Undun” (The Guess Who), “Rock Me Gently” (Andy Kim) and “(I Believe) There’s Nothing Stronger Than Our Love” (Paul Anka). You’ll hear Craig sing “Tonite is a Wonderful Time to Fall in Love” (April Wine), “Make My Life a Little Bit Brighter” (Chester), “Heartbeat, It’s a Lovebeat” (The DeFranco Family) and “Can’t Catch Me” (BIM). You’ll hear Chris sing “Lovin’ You Ain‘t Easy” (Michel Pagliaro), “Which Way You Goin’ Billy?” (The Poppy Family) and “Carry Me” (The Stampeders). You’ll hear Moe sing “Pretty Lady” (Lighthouse), “Raised on Robbery” (Joni Mitchell) and “You, Me and Mexico” (Edward Bear).

This is contemporary folk at its absolute best.

Somatic Breath Work
2024-11-06 19:00 - 20:30 | Divine Studios, 87 Canterbury St. Suite 301, saint john
Hosted in the inspiring and dreamy Divine Studios location .. transform your life beginning here

Breath is one of our most powerful tools to support us every day. Conscious Connected Breathwork is a vibrant practice that guides us beyond the busyness of the mind and into a state of presence. It is a powerful technique that allows individuals to tap into their emotional body and release any built-up emotional charge stored in the nervous system.

This can lead to a deep sense of healing, increased awareness, personal insight, and a profound connection with one’s deepest self. In our journeys, we may use a variety of contemplative practices, sharing, movement, sound, and breath to support both the experience and integration.

This is a powerful practice and not recommended for those who are pregnant, have heart conditions, glaucoma, epilepsy, or are undergoing treatment for significant physical or mental health concerns.
