The End of Exams Jam (4)!

Mr. H Presents... is celebrating the end of the school year AND 3 years of making music happen with the fourth annual, End of Exams Jam.  

Returning once again to the GCSU Backlot, this year's show will feature Meadows' pop-punk trio, West Street Children, St. John's rapper, Bruff, and some more of your local faves: Jared Simmonds, Danny Staples, Dylan Walsh, and more. 

Showtime is 7pm (doors at 630).  As with all Mr. H events, this is an all-ages, no-alcohol affair. 

Tickets are $6. 

We will also be selling raffle tickets for some great prizes, with proceeds going back into future Mr. H Presents... projects. 

The Make Music Happen Conference is coming!

There are spaces still available for the songwriting conference, but don't wait too long! If you are a student (grades 7-12) and you would like a chance to workshop your songs with professional musicians like Sherman Downey, Aley Waterman, Ian Foster, Jerry Stamp, and Repartee's Meg Warren, this is your chance.

Mr. H Presents... The Make Music Happen Conference

The Make Music Happen Conference is a day-long event designed to give young musicians a chance to workshop their songs with some of our provinces finest songwriters: Aley Waterman, Ian Foster, Jerry Stamp, Meg Warren (of Repartee), and Sherman Downey.

CONFERENCE (9am-4pm): Students in grades 7 to 12 can sign up now for a day full of workshops and networking sessions capped off with a student showcase. There will also be short sessions dealing with live show production (Max Simms), the business side of music (Nick Hamlyn), and the role of digital media in music (Tom Cochrane, of CornerBrooker.com).  Space is limited, so it is essential to register in advance; the registration cost ($40) includes a ticket to the evening concert.

CONCERT (7-10): This songwriters circle concert is open to the public and will feature Aley, Ian, Jerry, Meg, and Sherman.  A line-up like this is rarely seen on the west coast, so you do NOT want to miss it. Tickets are $10 and will be available at both Brewed Awakening locations soon.

Please tell all of your friends. A bunch of times.
Thanks.
