# Event Details

- **Event Name**: Concert at the Commons: Barrel Boys
- **Event Start and End Date**: Thu, 18 Jun, 2026 at 06:30 pm
- **Event Description**: They are headed for the Cowichan Bluegrass Festival, but you get a chance to see them on Gabriola first! This is bluegrass at its finest, with some incredible musicians on the roster (if you went to the recent Vinta show, then you have already met the fiddle player for this outfit).

Since forming in 2012, The Barrel Boys have become one of Canada’s most beloved acoustic string bands, known for their soaring harmonies, virtuosic musicianship, and unforgettable live shows. Blending bluegrass, old-time, country, and Americana influences with a rich catalogue of original songs, the band delivers an energetic performance centred around a single vocal mic and a deeply collaborative sound. 

With appearances at festivals across Canada and a 2021 Canadian Folk Music Award nomination for Vocal Group of the Year, The Barrel Boys bring warmth, humour, and world-class musicianship to every stage.

This show will be outdoors  at the Timberframe - so bring your lawn chair and layers. We hope by June 18th to be having warm evenings, but on the coast its always a bit iffy.

Tickets are $25 ($10 for kids under 13)  and can be purchased  at https://www.showpass.com/the-barrel-boys-gabriola-commons-timeberframe/ or bring cash to the concert.
