Concert
Lydia Hol is a singer-songwriter whose music blends country, soul, and psychedelic rock. Her latest album, Some Dreamers of the Golden Dream (via Amelia Artists), draws inspiration from Joan Didion’s Slouching Towards Bethlehem. Since 2012, she has toured internationally across Denmark, Sweden, Germany, and the U.S. With a background in literature and filmmaking, Hol’s performance is both timeless and evocative.
Evan Cheadle, a Victoria-based singer-songwriter and multi-instrumentalist, is known for his lush, vintage-inspired sound that fuses folk, psych, and classic rock. His 2021 album Fault Line Serenade (via Victory Pool) earned national acclaim for its warm analog production and poetic lyricism.
Food
Digable Roots is a Cowichan Valley working farm and farm-to-table culinary operation led by Red Seal Chef Callum Bottrell. Sourcing directly from its own fields, Digable Roots creates seasonal, ingredient-driven meals that celebrate the bounty of the Valley.
