North of Nowhere is an anthemic pop-punk powerhouse hailing from Nova Scotia's northern peninsula . with a line-up hailing from Amherst, Oxford, Parrsboro and Springhill , known for sweaty arm-in-arm mosh pits and sing-along choruses.

Rob writes and performs his original folk and blues, (11 albums deep and counting) plays in a duo, Sussex and in a band. This show will be a little different in another way. Rob is a bit of a music historian. His background in journalism met his love of music and led him down some twisty turny musical rabbit holes. This has resulted in a one-man show where he offers his own music plus a selection of music from the 18th, 19th and 20th centuries. These are pieces that your ear will recognize but you likely don't know much about them.

The taqəš and Other Works program features a stunning lineup of signature works from Ballet Kelowna’s contemporary ballet repertoire. With Cameron sinkʷə Fraser-Monroe’s compelling taqəš, Alysa Pires’ striking Vestiges, and Guillaume Côté’s electrifying Le Carnaval des Animaux, this high-energy program from Canada’s leading dancemakers promises to please a wide range of spectators.

Cameron sinkʷə Fraser-Monroe brings his classical ballet training, knowledge of traditional Coast Salish, Grass, and Hoop Dance, and experience as a contemporary dancer to taqəš [tawKESH], which means “to return something” in Ayajuthem, the language belonging to the Homalco, Klahoose, K’omoks, and Tla’amin Nations. Set to several songs by Polaris Prize-winning composer and singer Jeremy Dutcher, taqəš follows the traditional story “Raven Returns the Water,” centred around ῤoho (raven) and walθ (frog).
