About the Featured Performers:

Raised in Zimbabwe and currently based in Calgary, KTheChosen is your Friendly Neighbourhood Rapper who creates music that is both entertaining and enlightening. K (as he is affectionately known) believes in the power of storytelling and uses his voice to share the experiences of those around him. Since 2018, K has self-released several projects leading to him being named in the Herald’s Top 20 Compelling Calgarians for 2022 and nominated twice for the YYC Music AwardsRap Recording of the year (2022 and 2024). He is also the host and curator of Ship Hop, a quarterly hip hop showcase at The Ship and Anchor.

Sarah Good Medicine is a Hip Hop Emcee and Deejay. She’s mixed White, Metis, Cree and Chippewa from Manatoba and North Dakoda and believes in being a good Aunty for her community in Mohkinstsis. She feels that using her medicine (her gifts) is why she, and all human beings are here: to use our medicine.

With their signature style of basement blues and rockabilly jazz, Bluerock Junction is emerging as a hidden gem in Calgary’s music scene. A classic power trio featuring drums, bass, guitar and vocals, they combine elements of 60s garage rock with raw blues and funk.
