SUMMARY:Peaches: No Lube So Rude Tour
DESCRIPTION:Doors 7:00 PM \nShow 8:00 PM \nAll Ages \nwith Wheelchair Sports Camp \nPeaches has partnered with PLUS1 so that $1 per ticket goes to supporting organizations working for equity\, access\, and dignity for all. www.plus1.org \n  \nAn iconic feminist musician\, producer\, director\, and performance artist\, Peaches first catapulted to stardom with her “surreally funny [and] nasty” (Rolling Stone) 2000 debut\, The Teaches of Peaches\, which introduced the world to her sexually transgressive\, fiercely assertive\, and utterly captivating persona. Since then\, Peaches has released four more trailblazing albums\, won the prestigious Polaris Heritage Prize\, collaborated with everyone from Iggy Pop and Daft Punk to Christina Aguilera and Yoko Ono\, landed songs in cultural watermarks like Lost in Translation and The Handmaid’s Tale\, and seen her work studied at universities around the world. \n  \nIn addition to her musical output\, Peaches has directed over 20 videos\, co-curated a photo book of her life\, created a host of immersive installations and performative works\, and penned the electro-rock opera Peaches Does Herself\, which was adapted into a film shown at over 70 festivals. The subject of two acclaimed documentaries\, Peaches has also played the title role in Monteverdi’s L’Orfeo and Brecht’s The Seven Deadly Sins and continues to perform her widely lauded one-woman show\, Peaches Christ Superstar. \n  \nPeaches’ newest album\, No Lube So Rude\, recorded with co-producer The Squirt Deluxe\, is a brash\, unapologetic exploration of identity\, sexuality\, age\, and bodily autonomy\, a provocative work of emotional and sonic alchemy that balances the poetic and the profane in equal measure as it transforms all the friction and frustration of modern life into joy and transcendence.

SUMMARY:Deep Dark Woods with Clinton  St. John
DESCRIPTION:Deep Dark Woods returns for an intimate evening at Festival Hall with support from Clinton St. John \n\n\n\n\nDeep Dark Woods \nSeptember 7\, 2026 \nFestival Hall \nDoors: 7:00 pm; show 8:00 pm \nWith one foot in old school tradition\, nearly two decades into their life as one of Canada’s finest folk-roots ensembles\, that tradition is now one they’ve invented. A master of subtlety\, founding member Ryan Boldt’s highly emotive\, nuanced singing has an elegant\, relaxed precision that seems effortless\, a perfect vehicle for the band’s particular brand of updated folk music Fellow travellers keyboard whiz Geoff Hilhorst\, veteran drummer Mike Silverman\, and Evan Cheadle round out the Deep Dark Woods unit\, often assisted by like-minded roots singer/songwriters. \nTheirs is a deep tradition of forlorn storytelling\, drawing lines from Celtic folksongs to country blues. Lush and devastating\, Boldt’s gothic surrealism is stark and emotive. \nClinton St. John \nSolo\, or with one of his many former (The Cape May\, Pale Air Singers) or current (Florida BC\, Jolie Laide\, CG Tears) projects\, Clinton is a vividly imaginative storyteller who builds dreamy\, anthemic narrative landscapes around surreal psych-folk gritty blues and gospel-influenced songs.

Known as the “Sistine Chapel of rock ‘n’ roll\,” the studio on wheels is a treasured part of NMC’s living collection. Used to record albums by some of the biggest names in music\, including The Rolling Stones\, Led Zeppelin\, Fleetwood Mac\, Deep Purple\, Bob Marley\, and Neil Young\, The Free Label will get a once-in-a-lifetime chance to add to its legacy. \nThe Free Label is made up of six multi-instrumentalists and vocalists from Toronto\, melding ‘70s disco\, ‘90s R&B\, and high-energy funk that gets people dancing. The group’s natural chemistry\, technical prowess\, and captivating live performances have made them instant favourites with audiences worldwide. \n“Getting the chance to record with the Rolling Stones Mobile Studio is surreal\,” said The Free Label’s Josh Tsakas. “So many records and artists that have inspired us are connected to the studio\, and now we get to add our own chapter to that story. We’ve always fed off the energy of a live crowd\, so having everyone at the King Eddy with us while we capture our songs is going to be really special. We can’t wait to share those two nights with Calgary.” \nThe Live from the King Eddy series aims to recapture the spirit of the multi-day residencies that were common at the King Eddy in its early days\, and give artists from across Canada access to the Rolling Stones Mobile Studio\, one of the most coveted pieces of National Music Centre’s living collection.

It also gives artists the rare opportunity to create with a legendary piece of music history\, while continuing to preserve the collection and creating a unique program for audiences\, where they can experience Canadian artists collaborating with NMC and the King Eddy together.” \n\nPresented in celebration of NMC’s 10th anniversary\, the Live from the King Eddy series will bring 10 acclaimed artists from across Canada to Calgary to record live albums at the Eddy using the famed mobile studio.

As a cornerstone of the National Music Centre (NMC)\, the rich civic and musical history of the King Eddy is the primary reason that NMC chose to construct its new building at this location. The King Edward Hotel was one of the first hotels built in Calgary along 9 Avenue between 1905-1907. Over the years\, it’s been a home and destination for travellers\, settlers\, musicians\, music fans\, and citizens from all walks of life. From the early 1980s until it closed in 2003\, the “Eddy” had a respected local\, national\, and international reputation for legendary live music and was affectionately known as “Calgary’s Home of the Blues.” Restored brick by brick to its original glory by the National Music Centre\, the reimagined King Eddy reopened in 2018\, marking a new chapter in its storied legacy. It has received numerous national music industry awards and nominations in that time\, and has been repeatedly recognized as one of Calgary’s best live music venues.
