7pm Concert

Bez Arts Hub launches it’s first Pop-Up Fundraiser Concert in support of the many important and inspiring events and arts activities that take place in this notable local performance space! Bez has become an indispensable venue for all things arts-focussed in this region, featuring a steady stream of award-winning musicians, arts training and theatre performances that keep the lifeblood of this region pumping. This is our chance to support the life and health of our local arts scene!

This one-of-a-kind fundraiser will not only feature Juno award veteran, Shari Ulrich and jazz spectacle The Wild Blue Herons, but also the mind-blowing bass stylings of social media phenom Colin Sankey!

The house band will feature some of the most noteworthy musicians of this area: Bill Sample (keys), Miles Hill (bass), Randall Stoll (Drums), Brian Nicholl (pedal steel), Darlene Cooper (vocals) and Alana Zerbe (vocals).

Filling out the sets will be local emerging artists from our very own Bez Community stage: Cocolarosa, Aaron James, Tessa Davies, Andrew Gordon, Laura Doyle, Matt Pierrot, Matt Kennedy, Megan Gadd, Dave Forster, Wayne Joyce & Russ Rosen! It’ll be an exceptional evening of splendid sonics!

Join us for this unique musical variety show and support live arts, and a key local business, at the same time!
