Elliott BROOD

The Waverley Hotel, 2692 Dunsmuir Ave, Cumberland, BC V0R, Canada

Friday September 11th @ The Waverley Hotel in Cumberland, BC Box Office 9pm, Music 930pm, 19+ Elliott Brood is a three-piece Canadian alternative country band formed in Toronto in 2002. “Doing it the hard way for 20 years,” is a badge Elliott BROOD wear with honour. Two decades on, work, life and love have taken the trio in many directions, away from their hometowns and headfirst into an ongoing musical journey through distance and time. Now, after being members of this band for nearly half of their lives, Elliott BROOD is never more at home than in the wash of distorted, evocative strings and stomps that make their signature alt country sound. With smile lines and guitar fingers long hardened with callouses, Elliott BROOD has been doing it the hard way, but making it sound easy. We are SO excited to have them back here in Cumberland!

Kelly Madden “Unresponsive” Poetry Reading and Book Launch
Sat, Sep 19 7 pm – 9 pm

Kelly Madden “Unresponsive” Poetry Reading and Book Launch

Artful the Gallery

Kelly Madden is a Vancouver Island poet whose work is deeply rooted in place. She speaks for the overlooked: those lost to the overdose crisis, those unhoused, and the ecosystems we continue to erase. Her work has appeared in anthologies, Reckoning 2 & 4, SAPPzine, Island Writer’s Magazine, CV2, The Poet, Drift, Drunk Monkeys as well as projects supported by the League of Canadian Poets. Unresponsive is her second collection of poetry. (Caitlin Press). Learn more at kellybmadden.com . Raw, unflinching, and necessary. Unresponsive descends into the alleys, shelters and forgotten corners where the addicted, the lonely and the discarded struggle to survive. Urgent in tone and moral clarity, the collection stands as a call to action in the face of the overdose crisis and the growing catastrophe of unhoused life—issues that have become defining failures of our time. Unresponsive is not simply a book of poetry; it is a reckoning. Urgent, brave and unsparing, it demands that we look directly at what we have allowed to happen—and insists that we respond. It is a work that will leave its mark. ​ “Unresponsive is a call to action, hopefully falling into the hands of people with the power, means and money to save lives, a compassionate cry to seek solutions together, and a catalyst for assistance with a vulnerable population. Brace yourself for emotional impact”. ​ Jacquelyn Johnson, author of This Life I’ve Bled “An emotional journey that is both raw and hopeful, illustrating the irony of the darkness that can lay underneath the light. Kelly’s poetry puts a voice to the struggles we see daily and provides a narrative for the pain, loss and confusion of addiction that will challenge what, and how, you think”. David Kruyt, CEO, The Bloom Group Community Services Society ​

Comox Valley Songwriters Circle

Artful the Gallery

Each month singer/songwriters gather to share their tunes at Artful : The Gallery. The range of abilities, experience and genres welcomes musicians who appreciate the challenge (and the deadline!) of creating a new song each month. The circle provides a place to be inspired, seek feedback and to be able to hear what other creatives are working on. Most musicians bring along their guitars or ukuleles, although some sing a cappella or use the in-house piano for accompaniment. Host Ashley Sykes’s love of connecting with other artists provides motivation to write and perform in the supportive group. The circle does not provide instruction; it provides an opportunity to perform your song, and to be impacted by others doing the same. Attendance is by donation ($10 or pwyc). The group welcomes newcomers, and the only criteria is that the songs performed are original.

Vanier Nature Park: Restoration and Renewal

Along the way, discover how invasive plants are being removed to restore light around the oaks, and learn about new approaches being used to improve soil health and encourage greater native plant diversity. This is a chance to see ecological restoration in action and learn about the ongoing efforts to protect one of the Comox Valley’s unique and increasingly rare ecosystems.

You will need to wear neutral, comfortable clothing that you can move in freely. We’ll meet on six consecutive Sundays: Oct. 18 & 25, Nov. 1, 8 & 15 from 2 pm – 6 pm, and Nov. 22 from 2 pm – 8 pm.

Moontricks at The Waverley

The Waverley Hotel, 2692 Dunsmuir Ave, Cumberland, BC V0R, Canada

Based in the rustic Kootenay mountains of Western Canada, Nathan Gurley and Sean Rodman of nationally renowned electro-folk duo Moontricks draw inspiration from the ongoing cycles of the natural world. Both volatile and constant—like nature’s best offerings—the band finds solace and beauty in the fusion of seemingly disparate elements. There’s a kind of technicolor campfire quality to their uniquely hybrid sound: Each track is steeped in tradition and polished with a futuristic sheen, mixing organic folk, roots rock, and old-time blues with modern electronic production. Since its initial release, the band’s breakout hit “Home” has reached over 10 million streams, and their original tracks have been licensed for a wide range of television networks, including Netflix and Fox Sports.
