TIM WILLIAMS
CANADIAN BLUES AND ROOTS ARTIST – A producer/performer on four JUNO-nominated projects,

Tim Williams is one of our favorite local icons that has privileged us numerous times over the years. His 36 year career and constant work in the Calgary music industry is inspirational for so many. Always such a pleasure to share an afternoon with one of my favorite local celebrity musicians that has been such a key builder of the music scene in Calgary & huge part of developing live  music spaces that we enjoy today.

PAUL PIGAT
Paul Pigat is arguably one of the best guitar player around on the competitive on the national and international scenes. While he has a degree in classical music and music theory, he has devoted himself to a different vibe. With his various ensembles, including Cousin Harley and The Smoking Jackets, he has carved out a very respectable career creating great music drawing from just about every genre of popular music – jazz, blues, rockabilly and more. Blessed with a jazz man’s sheen, a rockabilly heart & a hobo’s soul, there aren’t many genres of music that don’t pull at Pigat’s wayfaring imagination like a magnet.

About The CORAZONES

The Corazones (or The “Hearts” in Spanish) are a versatile band based in Calgary, Alberta. They draw inspiration from artists like Bill Withers, Van Morrison, The Band, The Meters, Marvin Gaye and other incredible 70’s songwriters. Their choice selection of cover tunes and originals infuse these influences. Their live show is full of powerful “raise the roof” vocals, groovy bass and drums, evocative guitar riffs, harmonies, piano, organ, harmonica and an excellent collection of really bad jokes. Big sound for a four-piece band! 10 years performing together has brought this unique band to stages across Western Canada.

Sunday, May 26th, 2024 @ 3:00pm

Look forward to Braden Gates on his second visit to the “House” for another shared afternoon of his music and stories. Come on along!

About Braden Gates

Braden Gates is a young man, which may come as a surprise to anyone who has heard his brand of classic foot stompin’, fiddle playin’, guitar pickin’ folk. It would be easy to stereotype Gates as an old soul, but despite his love of traditional folk instrumentation and songwriting and old timey stage clothes, Gates’ sound carries a youthful feel and never feels affected or inauthentic. Through the ease with which he bows his fiddle and picks his guitar, and the straightforward uncluttered honesty of his lyrics, Gates has a natural way with a story.
