Vogue Theatre is an Art Deco/Art Moderne styled building originally built as a movie house and is presently used as an event venue for the performing arts. Situated on Vancouver’s “Theatre Row", the building was designated as a National Historic Site of Canada in 1990.

Madison McFerrin is an independent singer-songwriter based in Brooklyn, NY. Her critically acclaimed a cappella EP series, Finding Foundations, led Questlove to dub her sound “soul-appella.” After garnering praise as a Pitchfork Rising Artist and making her debut at SXSW, she mesmerized crowds on her debut US and European tours with her powerful one-woman show. Her performance led legendary KCRW DJ Anne Litt to remark, “there’s some sort of joy and beauty in the way that she performs that really drew me in all that much more.” Madison’s You + I EP expanded upon her a cappella sound by pairing her timeless voice with modern production by her brother, Taylor McFerrin. The combination proved effective. The COLORS debut of the lead single “TRY” has racked up over 1M views. And since it’s release in December of 2019, You + I has continued to impress listeners with The FADER noting how Madison’s “warm harmonies feel effortless” and AFROPUNK highlighting how “lush production and instrumentation accompany her angelic voice.” Despite COVID-19’s cancellation of her return to SXSW in 2020, Madison has continued to create during the quarantine. She released timely new music such as “Stay TF Inside,” which was featured on VICE News - Receiver, and debuted her first foray into beatmaking with the We’ll Be Okay Beatpack. Most recently, her newfound production skills were showcased on her viral track, ”GUILTY,” which perfectly captured the mood of joy and relief following the historic verdict in the trial for the murder of George Floyd.

Singer/songwriter Neko Case won a large and loyal audience for her smoky, sophisticated vocals and the downcast beauty of her music. A fiercely independent creative mind who left home when she was 15, Case cut her musical teeth playing in punk rock bands in the Pacific Northwest, but her career began in earnest while she was studying art in Vancouver in the '90s. She played with the band Maow and the Weasles, and then launched a country-influenced solo project with her backing band the Boyfriends. The debut album from Neko Case &amp; Her Boyfriends, The Virginian, arrived in 1997, followed by 2000's Furnace Room Lullaby. Released in 2002, the critically celebrated Blacklisted found her dipping into more atmospheric and personal musical territory with less obvious country influences. While dividing her time between her solo career and working with the New Pornographers and the Corn Sisters, Case was starting to approach mainstream recognition, and she signed to the respected indie label Anti- Records, who issued 2006's ambitious indie rock exercise Fox Confessor Brings the Flood. After a pair of well-crafted solo efforts, Case took time out to record a collaborative album with k.d. lang and Laura Veirs that was released in 2016, but she returned as a headliner with 2018's Hell-On.

Men I Trust

Doors 7:00 Show 8:00 PM
 
Hear ye, hear ye! We are super thrilled to announce that we will resume touring in N. America this fall for the release of our new and fourth album called “The Untourable Album”. We started working on this album amidst the global lockdown and didn’t expect to be able to “tour” these songs. We wanted to take the opportunity to work on new and different material, without necessarily intending to play these songs live. We wrote freely, as if we were suspended in time with no external attachments. The initial release date had to be delayed however, when Dragos got into a motorcycle accident and had to recover for several weeks. So here we are now, almost ready to release the album, while everything is slowly reopening and the lockdown seems to be a thing of the past. It looks like the “Untourable Album” will be tourable after all! We are still in the process of polishing the songs and doing the last tweaks before the album is ready. We will have an official release date super soon, stay tuned. Thank you for your ongoing support and we’re looking forward to see everyone again in real life!

Benee - World Tour 2022

with special guests Dreamer Boy
Doors 7:00 Show 8:00 PM
&nbsp;
Supalonely singer BENEE announces her first foray out into the world since the pandemic struck.
The 21 year old New Zealand artist broke through with Supalonely, the four billion streaming single from her second EP, and has had to wait for a chance to tour outside her home country again.
&nbsp;
Next year sees BENEE&nbsp; head back to Europe and the UK in April-May and North America in June, traveling to play the Northern hemisphere for the first time since 2019.
&nbsp;
She managed to fit in a sold out summer 2020 tour of New Zealand with the release of her Hey u x album.
&nbsp;
&ldquo;I am beyond excited to announce that my WORLD TOUR KICKS OFF next year!!!!!!!!!,&rdquo; says BENEE. &ldquo;It&rsquo;s been such a long time coming &amp; we&rsquo;ve lived through a lot in these weird times but shows starting up again has rly got everyone sosososodo happyyy!!!! I can&rsquo;t wait to get back out there &amp; meet all of u and play a bunch of new musiiiiiicccc!!
&nbsp;
&ldquo;I AM SO READY TO TOUR!!&rdquo; she exclaims.&nbsp; &ldquo;Doing shows with my band is the best thing and I have missed it so badly this year. Waiting, rescheduling, waiting again has been incredibly difficult.&rdquo;
&nbsp;
BENEE&rsquo;s dreamy alt pop mixes her deeply heartfelt reflections on life in suburban Auckland, New Zealand, with offbeat and often whimsical lyrical encounters with zombies and snails, all produced with a technicolour ear for cooked beats and unpredictable hooks.
&nbsp;
She has just released her first new music since 2020&rsquo;s album Hey u x.&nbsp;
&nbsp;
The album was a vibrant musical world with guests ranging from Grimes and Lily Allen to Gus Dapperton and Muroki (another New Zealand teen BENEE has since signed to her own label, Olive).&nbsp;
&nbsp;
It was listed as one of Billboard&rsquo;s 25 Best Pop Albums of 2020, noting that BENEE &ldquo;contemplates the woes of Gen Z with a keen ear for choruses and arrangements that oscillate between indie rock and hyperpop&rdquo;. Stereogum praised its &ldquo;quirky but impeccably produced pop music&rdquo; and Vogue called it &ldquo;13 tracks of heavenly indie-alt-pop&rdquo;.
&nbsp;
Latest single Doesn&rsquo;t Matter,&nbsp; another deeply revealing track that reflects the singer&rsquo;s journey through the emotional clatter of 2021, is off to a flying start, streaming over 1million times in its first week.
&nbsp;
A forthcoming BENEE EP release leads into plans for 2022 with the thing that excites her the most, a hefty touring schedule that will bring her live show to adoring fans around the world at last.
&nbsp;
Tickets to BENEE&rsquo;s world tour dates go on sale this week. Go to <a href="http://beneemusic.com">beneemusic.com</a> for more info.

Presale: APRIL 21 @ 10 AM PST On Sale: APRIL 22 @ 10 AM PST 
 
There are few voices more deeply embedded in the iconography and mythology of American indie rock than that of Chan Marshall. Under the musical nom de plume of Cat Power, Marshall has released music for nearly 25 years now and her prowess as a songwriter, a producer, and most notably—as a voice—has only grown more influential with time. On her 10th studio album, Wanderer, Marshall resets her dials, offering a collection of songs that function as pristine examples of her still-evolving creative practice. Held aloft primarily by Marshall’s own guitar and piano, Wanderer is a collection of winding, wondering narratives all perfectly imbued with the kind of yearning and warmth that have made her one of the most distinctive and beloved artists of her generation.

<div class="is-flex flex-wrap gs-mb-2 gs-justify-center">
<div class="col-12 gs-text-center gs-is-live-text">The heavy metal-n&rsquo;-roll dark madcap visionaries collectively known as AVATAR didn&rsquo;t pick their moniker by accident. An &ldquo;avatar&rdquo; is defined as either a manifestation of a deity in bodily form or an icon representing a separate being in another realm. Both meanings perfectly describe the Swedish rock sensations, as they&rsquo;ve built something larger than life. Ambitious sorcerers of the highest order, AVATAR smash the boundaries between band, theater troupe, and cinematic masterminds, with a series of celebrated albums and videos, and the immersive world of Avatar Country, a fantastical land where metal rules supreme. The AVATAR cultural infiltration encompasses both commercial rock radio and streaming services, where songs like &ldquo;The Eagle Has Landed,&rdquo; &ldquo;Hail the Apocalypse,&rdquo; and &ldquo;Let it Burn&rdquo; have amassed more than 100 million streams, as new &ldquo;citizens&rdquo; enter into their &ldquo;kingdom.&rdquo;</div>
