Event Description

New to the VFMS stage, Sunshine Coasters Kaia Nielsen and Mark Lebbell like to call their music ‘Canadicana’, drawing inspiration from non-traditional cover tunes and originals. Their repertoire is full of trains and trucks, love lost and found, gasoline and other higher powers. They charm as a duo, but will often fill out the band with some of the Sunshine Coast’s finest players. For tonight’s show they are joined by Mari Nielsen, a fiddler they spawned several years ago. Whatever the lineup, their shows are always rich with harmony, humour, heartbreak, hope, audience participation, and hip-shaking grooves, drawn from their evolving set-list of well-crafted Roots tunes.

Open Stage 7:30pm
