Secondhand Dreamcar
Saturday, October 17, 2026
Doors 7pm, Music 8pm
$30 Advance, $35 Door
Explosive soul/roots & blues band from Edmonton - a true superband!
Secondhand Dreamcar, an explosive soul/roots/blues band based in Edmonton, is a true superband – a consummate constellation of veterans of Canadian music who have worked on some of the finest jazz, funk, folk, soul, and blues projects ever created in Alberta. Collectively, they craft a distinct, funky, and lyrically-driven sound that journalist and programmer Peter North has deemed the most exciting thing to come out of the city since k.d. lang and the Reclines.
One of CKUA radio’s favourite acts, Secondhand Dreamcar saw its debut album Answer The Call land at Number 6 on the station’s Top 100 albums of 2024. But the band’s true superpower is as a dynamite live act, having cut its teeth as an ensemble in a 9-month residency at Edmonton’s legendary Blues on Whyte club, and since fostering an Alberta-wide, ever-growing following of devotees who never miss a show.
The Dreamcar had a very busy 2025, selling out a two-nighter at Edmonton’s Yardbird Suite and playing a full roster of summer festivals, including the Edmonton Folk Festival and the Calgary Blues Festival. They’ve started off 2026 right, receiving three Canadian Blues Music Awards nominations and a JUNO nomination for Blues Album of the Year for Answer the Call, and just finished tracking their second album, which will be out in the fall.
​
​The band is beyond excited to put their new album out into the world. These songs capture the incredible energy of their live shows - their raison d'etre - and they're guaranteed to make you feel better from the first note!

Their recent placement in Martin Scorsese’s trailer for 2024 Best Picture Oscar Nominee, Flowers of the Killer Moon, put this collaboration project on the world map ahead of planned activities throughout 2024/2025.

JJ Shiplet (trio)
February 20, 2027
Doors 7pm Music 8pm
$30 Advance, $35 Door
​​​​​​
Calling JJ Shiplett a force of nature might be considered hyperbole to those who haven’t heard him perform live, but for anyone who has, it fits just right. Few Artists can capture a person’s attention by way of song as effortlessly and honestly as Shiplett does. The Canadian roots singer-songwriter and producer’s raspy voice and unflinching honesty have turned barrooms and theatres into choirs across North America.
​
Since his CCMA-nominated debut Something To Believe In (2017), Shiplett has amassed almost 12 million streams, earned multiple awards, and launched his own imprint, Red Buffalo Records - an artist-centred label championing high-fidelity, intentional releases from Canadian talent.
​
His sophomore album, Fingers Crossed (2020), brought another CCMA nomination and further showcased his gift for contemplative songwriting and emotive performance, with standouts like “Wanting On The Rain” and “Closer.”
April 2024, Shiplett released A Way Through Time, a seven-song record that marked a bold new creative chapter. The album leaned into restraint, depth, and nuance, earning widespread praise and another Canadian Country Music Award nomination for Alt-Country Album of the Year.
​
Now, looking ahead to 2026, Shiplett prepares to release his most ambitious work yet: All My Money on Red. The eleven-song album will arrive alongside a feature-length documentary exploring the cost, sacrifice, and conviction required to make an album in the modern age. Early responses have already called it his strongest and most fully realized work to date - an artist pushing forward with clarity, purpose, and nothing held back.
​
One part enigma, one part lover, one part relentless creative—JJ Shiplett is many things. But as a artist, he is always greater than the sum of his parts, leaving a lasting impression long after the final note fades.
