Acrpost: A Project of the Pacific Association of Artist Run Centres

Event Description

The Gertrudes will be performing a free concert on the Daft patio to celebrate the release of their new album. The free concert will be Saturday at 7PM.

Just to Please You is the group’s first full length album collaboration with Neptune’s Machine Producer Jason Mercer (ani difranco, Ron Sexsmith). Taking inspiration from artists like Wilco and The National, The Gertrudes knit together a sound like an old-time saloon party travelling through deep space. Just to Please You follows four full length albums and extensive touring across the country, including memorable performances like at the Vancouver Folk Festival and the Halifax Pop Explosion, and sharing the stage with artists like Sarah Harmer, Calexico, and Ricky Skaggs.
