Get your groove on at the Music in the Dark Beach Dance Party
By Trail Arts Council
Get ready to dance like there’s no one watching with Stubbs and the and Paris Pick and the Pricks at Music in the Dark. Presented by Trail & District Arts Council, as part of the Kootenay Savings Music in the Park series, this live music event happens on Friday, Aug. 7 from 7:30 to 10 pm at Gyro Park Beach.
The party starts at 7:30 pm with Paris Pick, affectionately dubbed the ‘Yacht-Pop Princess’ backed by her sequin-clad Pricks!
Originally hailing from Whitehorse, and now based in BC, Paris’ unmistakable voice, fearless fashion, and catalogue full of shimmering songs about life, love, growth, and heartache, blend crunchy-cute guitar with breezy mid-’70s vocal melodies and hooks that leave audiences swooning long after the show is over.
Over the past decade, Pick has toured extensively and has opened for Canadian artists such as Yukon Blonde, Apollo Suns, Brass Camel, Jennifer Castle and Wax Mannequin.
Stubbs’ shows are spontaneous fun. Rooted in Rossland, this five-piece started playing crowd-pleasing covers before discovering their independent original and theatrical music. With lyrics in 10 different languages, and a track-list that defies labelling under traditional genres, the audience can’t help but join in the fun!
Stubbs and The is driven to push the limits of what you like in music, with elements that mix silliness with genuine authenticity. There are no rules!
Admission is $10 for this no alcohol event recommended for ages 15 and up. Only 200 tickets are available. Buy at the door or in advance at purchase.trail-arts.com.
