Rubber Tire Peep Show:

When experiencing the Rubber Tire Peep Show, one may be struck by the inspired authenticity, fused with an improvisational electricity that gives a slight nod to music of the past.. once you get it, you can’t forget it.

Rubber Tire Peep Show (RTPS) is a Canadian musical collective whose eclectic repertoire spans genres from country-blues, funk, soul, to some good old rock ’n’ roll. Through an ever-growing roster of collaborating musicians both on stage, and in studio, “the Peep Show” infuses each performance with jam-band dynamics and fresh interpretations of both original compositions and beloved classics.

In the past year, Rubber Tire Peep Show's first three singles off their upcoming debut record have gained widespread attention, including earned features on Exclaim Magazine’s curated Spotify playlist, "the Eh List." Following a series of sold-out shows in Toronto, the band was hired as the house band for the CFL’s Winnipeg Blue Bombers' "Grey Cup Festival" at the Hamilton Convention Centre, marking a significant milestone in their journey. Encouraged by their growing success, the band embarked on a successful winter tour through interior B.C., selling out multiple performances throughout the lively ski-town communities. After the overwhelmingly positive response of this venture on the road, the band is gearing up for a multi-province Canadian tour this summer in support of their debut record.

At its heart, Rubber Tire Peep Show is fueled by the passion and dedication of founders Liam Slingerland and Harrison Smith alongside their exceptional team of collaborators. With an unwavering passion for musical collaboration, and all the good-times that come along with it, they work to ensure that “you’ll never see the same show twice!”.

A night of fresh folk, country, original music, and dancing as Christian Hudson passes through town on his Tour.

About Ethan Askey & the Elevators -
Allow yourself the opportunity to travel in time and space with Ethan Askey & The Elevators, raising the roof at Encore Brewing Co. on May 10! They will draw you deep into their tasty tales of faraway places, love gone wrong, and whistling past the graveyard. Still new as a band, they are reaching audiences around the world with their colour-outside-the-lines original music that features electric harmonica, slide guitar, and harmony vocals. This band also can transport you virtually to a southside Chicago club in the ‘60s or reinvent an '80s hit as a barn-burner blues boogie for a dance party like nobody else! Bandleader, singer and award-winning musician Ethan Askey had long apprenticed as a sideman playing in western Canada, USA and Europe, and earned a place on global blues and roots radio play charts as a solo artist, before forming this powerful new quartet. Individually, the band members are no strangers to regional and international stages, drawing from a diversity of musical genres: Mike Honeyman on bass; Ben Dunn on drums and backing vocals; Keith Larsen on guitars and vocals; and Ethan Askey on lead vocals, harmonicas, horn, and guitar. Don’t miss the Encore debut of Ethan Askey & the Elevators, going up!

Half Spent -
Consisting of members Dawson Rutledge (guitar, vocals), Julian Bueckert (drums), Dallas Moore (guitar) and Angus Liedtke (bass), Half Spent has been sonically bombarding other humans since 2017. With a heavy love for the sounds of 90s and early 00s, Half Spent sends you into a tubular sound fortress. With washing melodies to assaulting fuzz the band's influences range from The Dirty Nil, The Districts and The Smashing Pumpkins. From Arizona to New York, the band has had the pleasure to entertain folks all around North America but gladly call the East Kootenays home. The members of Half Spent collectively have five Kootenay Music Awards under their belt and hope to continue to achieve many more accolades, even if they are a bit tired.

This event is guaranteed to be a blast, so make sure to grab your tickets soon! Some tickets might be standing room only.
