JR Reyne

Releasing his debut EP Tex Sessions at the age of 20, then wasting no time releasing the critically acclaimed album Fallen Flower the following year, Reyne was already well in tune with his style of music, citing influences from Tom Petty, Bruce Springsteen and John Hiatt to Townes Van Zandt, Elvis Costello and Gram Parsons. Opening is local singer/songwriter Stephen Prickett , whose haunting voice and roots/country influences have made him one watch on the Toronto music scene. THIS IS A FREE SHOW!

The Monkey Bunch
A rock ‘n’ roll band with a social conscience. The Monkey Bunch is for people who love music and want their kids to love it too. Children love to play the same music over and over and over and…you get the idea. And so do we! We wanted to create a musical experience that a child could enjoy with a parent or caregiver. That they could appreciate together. We want our music to be able to be played over and over without making a parent have…well,…a temper tantrum! The intention is that elements of the music appeal to both parents and children alike – in their own unique way. The music was made with the idea that children deserve high quality – just like adults. That they are just really short people and shouldn’t be talked down too. Even musically. Doors are at 2:30pm. The Monkey Bunch play at 3pm sharp!
