Support the Scene is back with a fresh faced blog, and as always, we're ready to introduce you to some of the amazing local talent we have here, and to reacquaint you with some of your favourites. We have such an incredible music scene here in the GVA, and there are so many amazing artists just waiting for you to check them out. So, after an intensely hot and busy summer, some of our talented local artists found time to answer a few of our questions.

Check out what Quenten Truhn had to say! 

♪ ♫ ♪

        Q: For those who don’t know you, can you please introduce yourself and describe your sound?

My name is Quenten Truhn, a small town boy from northern Alberta.
My sound has been described as “Soul Rock”, it’s steeped in love, trauma, adventure and self improvement.
At the age of 19 I decided music was likely my best shot at being able to help, so I picked up a guitar and started learning.

        Q: What’s one of the biggest successes you’ve had as a musician?

Being able to do a small solo tour this summer was really cool, I’m thankful to be able to really start spreading the sound around.

        Q: What’s your favourite venue to play?

I am so excited to play the Vogue theatre!

        Q: What do you think was the best Medium for music to be on? (Vinyl, Tape, CD, Digital)?

I think most of these vessels come with their specific advantages. Personally I like the warmth of a vinyl record but the availability and fidelity of digital music is so rich.

        Q: Who is your favourite local band to see perform around town?

Lately I am addicted to an unreleased Dusknote @Dusknote track so any chance I have to hear them play it at the end of a set, I’m there!
Otherwise Brass Camel @Brasscamel will melt your world.

        Q: What’s coming up next for your music?



I am finally launching the brain baby “Coastal Shivers” @coastalshivers, sultry soul rock with a dialed in, versatile group of 5. We have a record worth of demos that take to the studio, for what will be the released versions, on Sept 8th.
There are existing talks of shows for Coastal Shivers at local venues in 2024.

Show Review - Put THAT In The Bible!

Support the Scene had the opportunity to send one of our incredibly talented photographers to see Bible Girl, Doom Loops, and Kites on Mars on November 8th, at Lana Lou's. Here's what Jade Weekes had to say about the incredible performance that these bands put on.  ♪ ♫ ♪ Bible Girl had their first show at Lana Lou's last night. Their sound was a great mix of indie rock with a touch of shoegaze. Since it was their first show, it was expected to have a couple of flubs but they carried on like the seasoned musicians they are. Many dynamic changes made their set full of unexpected energy bursts, amidst their more low-key overall sound. Keep an eye out for their upcoming single!  ♪ ♫ ♪   Doom Loops brought some tasty piano licks, soaring synths, and catchy vocals; and that was only from ONE of their members! The whole band really had tunes that were full of quirky lyrics and bass lines that made your feet just move on their own. They had great harmonies and really used ...
