About the artists:

Pink House

Originally from Whitehorse, Pink House Band takes its name from the jam sessions of its early days, held in a small pink house in the neighborhood. Made up of Charlie Rose Pelletier, Gabe Muhammad, Juan Pablo Herrera, Michael, Jeff Hamilton and Jeffrey McLean, the sextet has, in just three years, moved from private house shows to local stages. Their music delivers a vibrant blend of pop, neo-soul, and R&B.

 

Sam Mallais

Sam Mallais is an Acadian artist from New Brunswick who isn’t afraid to explore authentic, vintage-inspired sounds. With his first solo album, Tu m’dirais quoi?, produced by Mike Trask, he immerses listeners in the world of 1970s psychedelic blues rock. Recorded entirely in analog, the album is a true tribute to raw textures and powerful riffs.

 

Soir de Semaine

Soir de Semaine has been part of the Yukon music scene since 2003. The band blends folk, rock, ska, and reggae to create a unique and festive sound that instantly connects with audiences. With three albums to their name, they have performed at the Vancouver Olympic Games, the FrancoFolies de Montréal, the 400th anniversary celebrations of Quebec City, and the Coup de cœur francophone festival.

 

This project is made possible thanks to the Arts Operating Fund – Annual Project, under the Minister of Tourism and Culture, Jen Gehmair.
