Willie Nile
Willie Nile is a veteran New York street poet and indie troubadour who came out of the late 70’s punk/new wave scene to become a prolific, third act showstopping musician.
He is the rocker’s rocker with a heavy dose of hall of fame fans while his band is a trigger tight four piece who have toured with Joan Jett, Blondie, the Ramones and Hank Williams 3. Together they put on a real deal rock show that puts you right back in CBGB’s.
David Gogo
David Gogo is the guitarslinger from Nanaimo who was blessed by Stevie Ray Vaughan as a teenager and dedicated his life to rockin’ the blues like his hero.
30 years later he has been nominated for 6 Junos, won multiple Maple Blues Awards, opened for ZZ Top, The Hip, Foreigner, Buddy Guy and Johnny Winter; touring the world with his fierce blend of blues, rock and soul all punctuated by sizzling hot guitar playing.
