About this Event

is excited to be putting on a two-night event series in Calgary before going on its annual summer break (and maybe a tour ;) ), so make sure to make the most of it!

Presented in part by the indie-music-loving Sea Change Brewing Co., the May 28-29 series at the event space inside (formerly The Prairie Emporium)*** will feature a cool mix of emerging acts, fan favourites and vocal powerhouses like Kaiya Gamble, TÉA G and Jaiden Riley, to name a few!

May 28 will be hosted by alt-country artist (formerly of Nice Horse) and May 29 by country troubadour . Both fundamental in helping Blue Jay Sessions establish itself in 2019, these two hosts know EXACTLY how to make a songwriters' round something to remember.

It'll be a great two nights of music and we hope you find a new-to-you artist to follow, stream and support!

***please access the event space via INSIDE the fenced parking lot. Look for a bright red door beside a small patio.
