Description

Join Sam Weber and Hayley Lynn for a night of live music at the Alberta St. Pub Tickets: $12 in advance, $15 at the door Doors: 7pm -------------------- SAM WEBER Canadian-born artist Sam Weber spans an eclectic range of roots, Americana, improvisational music and jazz influences. He has released three LPs of his own material, collaborated with Grammy winners, and contributed guitar to the 2021 Juno-winning Bahamas album, Sad Hunk. Supporting his upcoming release Get Free, Sam is going forth with the same intention and mantra as when he began: “Music is an emotional conduit between people and allows us the opportunity to share moments of truth and unity. In an age where the ritual of music-making can be a solitary exercise, I want to live my life to remind everyone that playing music as a communal and spontaneous practice can be healing and powerful.” www.samwebermusic.ca -------------------- HAYLEY LYNN Portland, Oregon songwriter Hayley Lynn has been quietly growing songs and albums from her hometown over the last five years. Now, with a new EP on the horizon, Lynn unveils a twist in her sound with her single “Tail Lights,” a 90s indie-rock throwback that shows us that Lynn’s powerful pop-rock sensibility and bold lyricism is just beginning. With a degree in Performance from University of Victoria in British Columbia, Lynn is no stranger to the stage. In 2016, the artist decided to step away from a successful acting trajectory to focus full time on music, saying the ability to have complete control over her career was what drew her in this direction. For her (and us) it has been all the better. Reminiscent of Lykke Li’s effortless indie-pop, and not without Imogen Heap’s tenderness, Lynn’s velvet voice is the ocean of sound we’ve all been wanting to lose ourselves in. Her 2016 soul-pop EP “Hypnotize” was released to a sold out show in Portland, with several follow up shows throughout the Northwest, leading to her debut album “Bring on the Flames” (2018) which also brought several sold out shows as well as placement in the Netflix Original show “The Pier.” Since then, Lynn’s music has been placed on ABC, the 700 Club, and Big Ten Network, expanding Lynn’s reach outside of the Northwest to international audiences. With three EPs, an album, and a handful of singles under her belt, Lynn’s prolific creativity puts her at the top of the list of Portland songwriters to watch today. Combining Maggie Rogers’ cool persona and Elle King’s unapologetic energy, Lynn has created a style and sound that joins the ranks of bold indie powerhouses that came before her. Her most recent single release, “Danny DeVito,” shows Lynn doing what most artists hope to achieve: take her art seriously while still bringing levity into the world. The dance-pop single is a nod to cult subcultures everywhere, yet somehow keeps one foot strictly in the mainstream. Her upcoming single “Tail Lights” is a precursor to Lynn’s soon-to-be-released EP “Horizon,” due out in 2022. www.hayleylynnmusic.com
