SUMMARY:Bry Webb + Cots
DESCRIPTION:Bry Webb + Cots\nLive at the SARRAS in Wells\, BC\nWednesday\, May 15th\, 2024\n7:00PM Doors\n7:30PM Music\n$15 to $20 suggested donation \nAbout the Artists:\nBry Webb\n” Bry Webb is best known as the singer and principal songwriter in the well-loved and celebrated Canadian underground rock and roll band\, The Constantines. During the band’s four-year hiatus from 2010-2014\, Webb returned to his one time home of Guelph\, Ontario\, became a father\, and wrote his first album\, Provider\, released in 2011 by Idée Fixe.\nNow in an unexpected turnaround 10 years on from the recording of his last studio album “Free Will”\, there is not only a return to the stage for Bry but also a new record. Primarily composed in a season of upheaval\, “Run With Me” contains some of Bry’s rawest sentiments. Fresh and painfully present there is an immediacy one can hear as emotional walls collapse in real time. ”\nhttps://brywebb.bandcamp.com/album/run-with-me \nCots\n“Cots is the solo project of Montreal composer\, singer\, and guitarist Steph Yates. Blending elements of bossa nova\, folk\, jazz\, and classical against a modern art backdrop\, Cots’s subtly unconventional compositions and poetics permeate her debut record – the hushed\, lush Disturbing Body. Produced by renowned Toronto musician Sandro Perri and engineered by Canadian recording artist Scott Merritt\, the record demonstrates Yates’s understated\, detailed songcraft and attention to lyrical play. Her pure\, crystalline voice carries the gravitas of songs that evoke lost love and its consequences.”\nhttps://cotsmusic.bandcamp.com/album/moonlit-building

She shows her process in real time through infusing it into her soulful “ancestral-roots and rhythm” musical sound and writing. Integrating her learning through creating.

Known for her distinct use of the instrument\, she performs in many contemporary contexts from pop to jazz to experimental. Her music is propelled by two artistic objectives: firstly\, how to create music that is both abstract and accessible; and secondly\, how harp can take the lead in ensembles in a way that does not compromise sensitivity with its boldness\, or generosity with its curiosity. Interested in the intersection between composed and improvised music\, she is involved with many projects including HUE\, The Giving Shapes\, and Gentle Party\, and works alongside many artists such as Mauvey\, Tonye Aganaba\, Loscil and Mother Mother. Her solo project combines elements of experimental folk and indie music that is informed by her classical technique and career as a contemporary musician.

(info@imarts.com).\nTHE ARTISTS\nMUSIC | BEN MATCHETT\nHailing from Northern BC\, Ben was heavily influenced by the folk and classic rock of his childhood. Ben has that magical balance of the bygone songwriting era; his lyrics are at once specific to his life\, and universal to the human experience. Ben draws inspiration from observation and is a natural storyteller\, captivating his audience with vulnerable ballads of love and loss – with a dash of uptempo guitar pickin’ and humour for good measure.\nwww.benmatchettmusic.com\nInstagram @benmatchettmusic\nFB @benmatchettmusic\n\nTHEATRE | BREAK A LEG BY BRIAN FIDLER*\n*The participation of this Artist is arranged by permission of Canadian Actors’ Equity Association under the provisions of the Dance•Opera•Theatre Policy.\nBreak a Leg is a collectively improvised tale inspired by Tramadol\, extra-strength Tylenol and the power of community. Created through the haze of a badly broken leg\, Fidler draws the audience into his experience through storytelling and games that speak to the better part of human nature and our innate desire to help each other in challenging circumstances.\nBrian Fidler- Performer/Creator\nFor over 20 years Brian has been making theatre\, creating outdoor multi-disciplinary events and directing shows in his hometown of Whitehorse\, Yukon (the Traditional Territory of the Kwanlin Dün First Nation and the Ta’an Kwäch’än Council). His cardboard science fiction puppet shows and original plays have been presented across the country and have toured to every community in the Yukon. Brian is the Creative Producer of Theatre in the Bush\, a site specific outdoor event set deep in the boreal forest. In the summer of 2024 Brian will return to Wells to create a customized version of Theatre in the Bush as part of the ArtsWells Festival.\nwww.ramshackletheatre.ca\nInstagram: @ramshackletheatre\n\nMUSIC | GENEVIEVE JAIDE\nGenevieve’s latest release\, “Why Am I Like This”\, was written as a coping mechanism to work through her personal mental health journey. The title track is a familiar story about social anxiety in which you wish you could promptly teleport *literally* anywhere from the situation that you are in – a pretty relatable feeling. The EP sifts through different memories and digs deep into the strange realities of one’s messy mind. The genre jumps around from alternative\, folk\, indie-pop\, to Canadiana\, but maintains Jaide’s lyrically driven\, terrifically vulnerable singer-songwriter vibe.\nGenevieve Jaide is a northern blooded songstress inspired by the environment\, nature\, and the alluring people she has met throughout the years. She carefully releases heavy emotions through lyrics and melodies\, and pairs these feelings with a groovy alternative vibe.\nHer folk alternative sound is accompanied by: Brock Patch\, Connor Pritchard\, Michael Lurincic and Calvin Hilde.\nGenevieve currently resides in Northern BC on Lheidli T’enneh Territory with her partner\, two orange cats\, and dog.\nhttps://www.genevievejaide.com\nInstagram: @genevievejaide\nFacebook @GenevieveJaide
