Kaeley Jade Album Release Show with Jed and the Valentine

Join Kaeley Jade in celebrating the release of her sophomore album, The Great Unknown, featured on Exclaim's Most Anticipated Albums of 2026. Live in concert with her full five-piece band, and with opening act Jed and the Valentine, the evening promises to be filled with surprises, magic, and a whole lot of heart. PRE-SAVE THE GREAT UNKNOWN: https://ffm.to/the_great_unknown ABOUT KAELEY JADE: https://kaeleyjade.com/ Alternative-folk singer-songwriter Kaeley Jade crafts full-hearted songs that dig deep. Growing up on the outskirts of North America’s most northern metropolis, the Edmonton-based Métis artist has been sculpted by icy winter winds and sweeping prairie skies. Whether through gently textured acoustic ballads or rip-roaring full-band cuts, Canadian Folk Music Award-winner Kaeley Jade’s powerful voice captures life’s most challenging moments with sincerity and precision. ABOUT JED AND THE VALENTINE: https://jedandthevalentine.com/home Jed and the Valentine, the musical collaboration born in Edmonton, Alberta through the creative minds of Jonah Morris and Maria Khaner, has become a compelling force in the Canadian music scene, bringing a sun-dappled folk sound to the prairies. Starting as performers in backyard gatherings, their dreams soon became too grand for the confines of the backyard — in just a few short years, the two landed themselves on the stages of major folk festivals across Western Canada.   Tickets: $20 advance // $25 @ the door Doors: 7:30pm

Petite Ondine

A coproduction of Théâtre la Seizième and Kleine Compagnie At the bottom of the ocean, Petite Ondine, daughter of the King of the Sea, feels like a stranger among her own kind. She dreams of another life, on land. But can a mermaid find her place among humans? Interwoven with songs of Nina Simone, Petite Ondine is a new object theatre production by the Kleine Cie in collaboration with Théâtre La Seizième, inspired by Hans Christian Andersen’s The Little Mermaid. In cabaret form, the use of video reveals to the audience the work on miniature objects and materials that is created directly on stage, underlining the poetry and the fragility of this world underwater.

Phantom Limbs

Created by Kristi Hansen with Moment Discovery “Phantom Limbs” is a glitch in the machine. A dance with the past. A memory play that may or may not remember correctly. Part performance, part technological misfire, Phantom Limbs explores what the body remembers even when something is no longer physically present. Through movement, body-based technology, and layered memory, Kristi Hansen plays with absence, sensation, and the poetic tension between what once was and what remains.

The Beating Hearts w. Funk Cove, Radio Receiver & Megan Lange

The Beating Hearts The Beating Hearts is an indie rock band hailing from Edmonton, Canada. Drawing inspiration from the psychedelic sounds of iconic artists like The Beatles, Ringo Starr, Led Zeppelin, and Jimi Hendrix, their music is a vibrant blend of retro and contemporary elements. They are known for their energetic live performances, and feel good love hearted tunes. The Beating Hearts is poised to captivate audiences with their unique sonic journey! Funk Cove Funk Cove is an eight-piece ensemble which includes a crackling rhythm section, three piece horns, and a wunderkind keyboard player. We collaborate to create a unique blend of highly original, syncopated music, as well as pay homage to the great music of the funk cannon. Radio Reciever Radio Receiver is an Edmonton based punk rock band, comprised of 4 Macewan music students. Formed by their vocalist L, after leaving behind Kelowna B.C. and their previous band, to attend Macewan University in Edmonton, Alberta. L and Sebastian shared some classes and L voiced wanting to put together a band, Sebastian asked to join on bass. Later, Eva and Edo were recruited on their respective instruments, drums and guitar. Sebastian and L quickly started collaborating on song writing, and the band eventually decided on the name Radio Receiver because of their old-school influences. Radio Receiver’s biggest inspirations are classic punk bands such as the Misfits, Ramones, and The Clash. Radio Receiver combines old-school song-writing with modern sound. The band hopes to expand their opportunities and audience, and take Edmonton by storm! First Edmonton, then the world… Megan Lange There is a timelessness to Megan Lange’s sound - a nod to the golden era of 70s folk infused with the ethereal clarity of a young Sarah McLachlan. For the Edmonton-born artist, music is both a lifelong pursuit and a family legacy. Her songwriting leans into the "beauty and messiness" of the human experience, balancing sophisticated melodies with a raw, vulnerable honesty.   $15 advance // $20 @ the door Doors @ 7:30

buanderie/boulangerie

This story of blueberry muffins and lost socks transports the audience into the world of a small French-speaking community. After years of adventures abroad, Louise returns home to find her roots and takes over the laundry business that belonged to her grandmother. She also reunites with her childhood best friend, Maxime, who had always worked in his family’s bakery without changing a single ingredient. His world is turned upside down when he goes through a breakup with his girlfriend, Marie-Josée, a kindergarten teacher who's looking for more creativity in her life. Guillaume, a renowned musician, also returns to stay with his friend Maxime, since he lacks inspiration in the big city. At the heart of this play we find themes of discovery and reunion, love and friendship.

The Beating Hearts w. Funk Cove, Radio Receiver & Megan Lange

The Beating Hearts The Beating Hearts is an indie rock band hailing from Edmonton, Canada. Drawing inspiration from the psychedelic sounds of iconic artists like The Beatles, Ringo Starr, Led Zeppelin, and Jimi Hendrix, their music is a vibrant blend of retro and contemporary elements. They are known for their energetic live performances, and feel good love hearted tunes. The Beating Hearts is poised to captivate audiences with their unique sonic journey! Funk Cove Funk Cove is an eight-piece ensemble which includes a crackling rhythm section, three piece horns, and a wunderkind keyboard player. We collaborate to create a unique blend of highly original, syncopated music, as well as pay homage to the great music of the funk cannon. Radio Reciever Radio Receiver is an Edmonton based punk rock band, comprised of 4 Macewan music students. Formed by their vocalist L, after leaving behind Kelowna B.C. and their previous band, to attend Macewan University in Edmonton, Alberta. L and Sebastian shared some classes and L voiced wanting to put together a band, Sebastian asked to join on bass. Later, Eva and Edo were recruited on their respective instruments, drums and guitar. Sebastian and L quickly started collaborating on song writing, and the band eventually decided on the name Radio Receiver because of their old-school influences. Radio Receiver’s biggest inspirations are classic punk bands such as the Misfits, Ramones, and The Clash. Radio Receiver combines old-school song-writing with modern sound. The band hopes to expand their opportunities and audience, and take Edmonton by storm! First Edmonton, then the world… Megan Lange There is a timelessness to Megan Lange’s sound - a nod to the golden era of 70s folk infused with the ethereal clarity of a young Sarah McLachlan. For the Edmonton-born artist, music is both a lifelong pursuit and a family legacy. Her songwriting leans into the "beauty and messiness" of the human experience, balancing sophisticated melodies with a raw, vulnerable honesty.   $15 advance // $20 @ the door Doors @ 7:30

This story of blueberry muffins and lost socks transports the audience into the world of a small French-speaking community. After years of adventures abroad, Louise returns home to find her roots and takes over the laundry business that belonged to her grandmother. She also reunites with her childhood best friend, Maxime, who had always worked in his family’s bakery without changing a single ingredient. His world is turned upside down when he goes through a breakup with his girlfriend, Marie-Josée, a kindergarten teacher who's looking for more creativity in her life. Guillaume, a renowned musician, also returns to stay with his friend Maxime, since he lacks inspiration in the big city. At the heart of this play we find themes of discovery and reunion, love and friendship.
