Event Description

Mark Woodyard & Chimp IT return to Banff's Biggest Stage!!!

Mark Woodyard - Often referred to as a “Human Jukebox”, Woodyard’s knowledge of music spans effortlessly across eras and genres. A multi-talented musician who uses looping machines, his voice and guitar, Woodyard is best known for his wide array of genre-bending covers that showcase his vocal range and eclectic sound creating truly unique and dance-inspiring performances. With no two shows sounding the same, Woodyard’s improv-esque style is reminiscent of a Reggie Watts and Marc Rebillet lovechild - a multi-instrumentalist who captivates audiences and sparks dancefloors seconds after taking to the stage.

Chimp IT - Blending the richness of cutting edge electronic music with the depth and emotion of blistering guitar licks and live vocals Chimp It’s signature move is to keep their fans guessing, as they weave their original material into edits and remixes from their favourite artists and peers, moving through Garage, Dubstep, House, DnB or whatever fresh gems they’ve uncovered in the far reaches of the music-verse. They have been selected for prime time slots at events such as Shambhala, Wicked Woods, Friendzy Fest, Tiny Lights and Arc’teryx Academy. Chimp It has landed many opening slots and jammed live with acts such as Moontricks, Lazy Syrup Orchestra and Kytami & Phonik Ops.
