Zach Moostoos-Willier 

Zach Moostoos-Willier is a 20-year-old Cree and Métis neo-traditional singer, songwriter and fiddler who comes from Sucker Creek First Nation. In April 2022 he was asked by the Royal Canadian National Geographic Society to represent Western Canada for the launch of the UNESCO Decade of Indigenous Languages in Ottawa, Ontario. In March 2023 he released his first album titled The New Sound Of Zach Willier (available on all streaming platforms), a neo-traditional country music album that includes nine original songs. In April 2023 he was one of the two first recipients to receive the Stirling John Foundation for Youth Empowerment support for Indigenous youth in Alberta. Since January 2024, Zach has been attending East Tennessee State University in Johnson City, Tennessee, studying for his degree in Bluegrass and Country music.

Brasstactics 

Get ready to groove with Brasstactics, Canada’s most dynamic and energetic mobile brass party band! This explosive ensemble brings together the best of AC/DC’s hard-rock edge, Dr. Dre’s hip-hop swagger and everything in between. Their unique sound is fueled by original songs that blend punk, ska, jazz and modern pop influences, guaranteed to get crowds moving and singing along! Tribute to the Groove, their debut album (July 2024), skyrocketed to number one on CKUA charts and topped the !earshot National Jazz chart. This monumental success is just the beginning for Brasstactics. Live, Brasstactics is an unstoppable force, igniting dance floors and inspiring sing-alongs. Their infectious energy, tight performances and genre-bending sound make them a must-see experience.

Bring your own chair or seat. Grab a spot as early as 6:30 p.m.; all shows start at 7 p.m. All ages welcome. Events are free to attend and tickets are not required.
