Winter – you win (for now). Our street is really not safe for a bunch of cars and people to park and walk, especially with more ‘stuff’ happening today. We WILL bring Alana Yorke back because she is AMAZING. New date: TBD
One of our In-the-dead-of-winter-music-festival favorites, Alana Yorke will serve up some comfort-food-like music for you on Saturday, February 28 @ 8 pm.
With dream-like vocals and a minimalist piano style, Alana Yorke combines irresistible hooks and captivating rhythmic patterns to draw listeners into her hypnotic and beautiful world. Raised on mid-80’s synth-pop (Kate Bush, Gowan, Enya), Yorke’s debut album, Dream Magic, was mixed in Montreal with Arcade Fire’s engineer Mark Lawson and was released January 20, 2015. Armed with a strong musical vision and unafraid of bold sonic choices, Yorke steers her music deftly between sparkly synth-pop, grand cinematic gestures, and stripped-down intimacy on this much-anticipated release.

We will be collecting a suggested $15 cover at the break. All funds go directly to the artists, as usual. Non-alcoholic beverages will be offered. You are invited to take along any wine/beer/etc. that you wish to enjoy. There will be a selection of munchies at the break. Contributions to the munchies table will be shared appreciatively but are not required.
