Alt-Mare before Christmas: Alternative Rock and Burlesque Show

So as many of you know we are throwing a Christmas Party on December 19th at Lord Nelson's and it will feature some of the coolest Alt. Rockers in Calgary and some Beautiful Women doing Burlesque. We have decided to get into the Christmas spirit and donate proceeds from the door to Operation Christmas Child, we are also accepting Shoe Boxes for them and Non-Perishable Food Donations for the Food Bank. Bands will be selling presale tickets and will be able to keep their proceeds to help fund their musical endeavors. Event here $10 Advance Tickets $15 at Door $5 with non-perishable food item or A Shoe Box for Operation Christmas Child

Up first we will be having Quade (Ex-Cooper Collective) (8:30) preforming a solo set of new material which he promises will kick the night off right. Links Coming Soon


Pop Punk group Sparrows Over Spain will be the first band preforming. Consisting of ex members of both Rockets and Dinosuars and DELUGE! and The Freshman Year, they have been hard at work recording their Debut EP with Eric Andrews of Evuis Studios which will be released early next year, they will be sure to get you dancing you can check out their live video for "Affleck Will Never Be My Batman" here



Then we will have the beautiful Aces and Eights Burlesque troop preforming and they are keeping their act Top-Secret so you will have to make sure to stick around and see what they have up their sleeves.

Following Aces and Eights we have Risky Endeavor keeping things going, with their self-titled EP freshly released at the end of September this band has sparked quite the interest of the community including both CJAY 92 and X929 Calgary's New Rock Alternative.
