Deckfest Artists - Saturday, August 16th | 5:00pm - 9:00pm.
EarthxStar - “A musical duo formed when two soulmates, each with a unique background in electronic, hip hop, and soul, came together to create an upbeat sound. Fusing their individual styles into a high-energy mix, they craft unforgettable, fun-filled nights of music that blend smooth rhythms with infectious beats.” (Witset)
Megafuana - “A 30-something experimental artist from Northern British Columbia. They make music as a means of coping with mental illness and the bleakness of the world around them. This is done by both embracing that darkness and, sometimes paradoxically, trying to create light in it. Their live performances are improvised, ensuring that no show is ever quite the same.” (Northern BC)
The Ezra Beaton Band - “Hailing from the Kitwanga Valley, Ezra Beaton is a versatile indigenous instrumentalist and vocalist with love for Blues, Folk, and Classic rock. A heartfelt and genuine writer and performer, He pairs his inventive lyrics with classic sounding musical elements inspired by the greats. Backed by Jason Taylor and Brennan McKinnon, Ezra and his band have quickly grown a loyal fanbase across the north with their electrifying performances.” (Northern BC)
Headliner: DEADSEXY - “Northern Canadian rock n roll. Based out of the Northern Capital, Prince George, BC Joe, Colin, Mike and Danny all have solo musical endeavours, but join together to form a powerful, refreshing wall of electric sound. (PG)
Featured CICK DJs to keep you entertained throughout the night:
DJ Tor of Mind Funnel: “Serving up the finest sludge, doom, death, and other heavy metals. Exploring the grating, harsh, weird, and the unapologetically heavy.” (Smithers)
Keith Cummings: "Weird synth sounds, like interstellar messages from an alien world, coupled with readings from Milton's Paradise Lost or math formulas from Einstein's Theory of Relativity (read through a vocal FX). Something weird and unexpected! (Telkwa)
with Local performer Margszee: “A one-woman show blending live DJing and flow arts, Margot Kimmel invites you on an expressive journey through sound and movement. With a soundtrack that feels like a quest through a moss-covered forest, her performance is both whimsical and powerful—an enchanting experience guided by a modern-day fairy" (Smithers)
