SUMMARY:Begonia (live concert) at Dënäkär Zho / KIAC Ballroom
DESCRIPTION:Pegged as Canada’s breakout alt-diva\, Begonia has built a legion of fans online and at her legendary live shows. Her critically acclaimed discography includes Lady In Mind EP (2017)\, Fear (2019) and Powder Blue (2023). Among her accolades\, she has two JUNO nominations (2021\, 2024\, Adult Alternative Album of the Year)\, two Polaris Prize nominations\, multiple #1 songs on CBC Radio\, and was named one of NPR’s Artists You Need to Know. \nHer sophomore album\, Powder Blue emerged in early 2023 and confronts themes of sexuality\, self discovery\, acceptance and empowerment. The album was named one of CBC Music’s Best Canadian Albums of 2023 (#7) and was shortlisted for the 2023 Polaris Music Prize. Begonia’s live performance is world class. She has been playing sold out clubs and theatres in North America\, and recently supported indie-all-star\, Leith Ross\, on their European tour. \nHer vocal prowess has the power to absolutely floor an audience\, evidenced at her Polaris Gala performance. Riding a wave of momentum with a record number of people discovering Powder Blue\, Begonia’s newest EP\, Open Swim\, was released in July 2024 via Birthday Cake Records. Co-written and produced by Alexa Dirks and Marcus Paquin (The National\, The Weather Station\, Arcade Fire) along with contributions from her frequent collaborators and producer duo\, deadmen\, the EP is a project that “encompasses the feeling of working through conflict and the elation that can surface when you’re honest with others and ultimately yourself. \n“With a rich sound and unshakeable confidence\, Canadian-born Begonia is a force to be reckoned with.” – Wonderland Magazine (UK)\n—\nDoors open – 7:30 / Music – 8:00\n$27 General / $25 KIAC Members / $18 Youth / Student / Accessible\n$30 at the door \nTickets on sale here! \nTo volunteer\, click here! \n–\nThank you to our funders:\nGovernment of Canada\nYukon Government

SUMMARY:Muster Point Live Concert
DESCRIPTION:Co-Presented by Jazz Yukon\nAdmission by donation (at the door)\nDoors open – 7:30 / Music – 8:00\nFeaturing a short opening set by David Johnston III \nMuster Point is Yukon’s contemporary instrumental collective. The rotating lineup brings together artists with backgrounds in jazz\, classical\, rock\, hip hop\, and things in between. Featuring some of Whitehorse’s finest musicians\, Muster Point plays original music that blends and extends genres into sweeping journeys of groove. \n\n\nThe band grew out of a shared dream that live music is so much more than what can be rehearsed. Muster Point’s founding members bonded through Whitehorse’s professional breakdance scene; creating fully improvised music while reacting in realtime to the freestyle dance in front of them. These sacred hip-hop rituals tuned their minds to a different frequency and set the creative tone for Muster Point. Today\, the collective has grown to about ten artists\, with a core group of five that perform regularly. Muster Point are gearing up for the recording of an album\, and the return of their super fun\, highly anticipated weekly series at Baked Café\, this time with new guest artists and new original music. \nFeaturing: \nLogan Bennett (piano/synth/trumpet)\nWyatt Best (guitar)\nJake Paleczny (bass clarinet)\nRagn Royle (bass)\nMichel Vallières (percussion)\n\nGalen Pelley (drums) \nhttps://www.instagram.com/musterpoint_band/
