Event Description
For over 25 years, Victoria's Canadian Beauty has been keeping the Dead alive with their spirited performances. For Lucky Budd's Birthday, we're playing a rare acoustic show -
we'll be dusting off old folk covers, Jerry ballads, and Reckoning faves with two sets of Acoustic Grateful Dead!
Canadian Beauty's first ever Grateful Dead tribute show was in 1999 at Thursday's Pub/Logan's. Over the years tributes to Neil Young, Bob Dylan, The Band, The Allman Brothers Band and Gram Parsons have appeared. Canadian Beauty and all their variations endeavour to make the music they play their own. As skilled improvisors, they'd rather put their personal stamp on the songs than perform note-for-note renditions. Members of the band also perform with: Jon and Roy, Jesse Roper, Pharis and Jason Romero, Paul Pigat, The Best Guys In Town, The Choirs YYJ and more.
Canadian Beauty is:
Lucky Budd – guitar and vocals
Marc Jenkins – guitar and vocals
Chris Van Sickle - piano and vocals
Esme John – bass and vocals
Damian Graham – drums
