About the artists:
Keanu Ienco: With the unique ability to translate stories and Native American culture into dynamic guitar driven soundscapes, Keanu Ienco is an Indigenous jazz/rock artist unlike any other on the scene. During his childhood, Keanu discovered his passion for music when his mother gifted him his first guitar for his eighth birthday. At thirteen he started playing professionally and by the age of sixteen had already performed live with numerous groups and received radio airplay of his own originals. Following the completion of a Bachelor's degree in Jazz Studies at Vancouver Island University Keanu has naturally grown his career and has been able to share the stage with industry professionals such as Steve Vai, Delfeayo Marsalis and Rufus Reid. 2020 saw the birth of Keanu's original instrumental project under his own name. Drawing from his authentic lived experiences as a Native American, Keanu’s music transports listeners on an emotional journey that honours his heritage while still being able to pull inspiration from his instrumental heroes such as Steve Vai, Pat Metheny and Plini. His debut album Celestial Desire was released in March 2022 to critical acclaim and earned him a nomination for "Instrumental Artist of the Year'' at the 2022 Western Canadian Music Awards.
Jack Grace: From the South Coast of England. Described as ‘Genre-ly challenged’, Jack’s works have been broadcast on BBC radio, BBC TV, and other major British TV broadcasting networks as well as international radio.
Amalgamating ambient qualities with soulful tones, Jack’s music creates a melodic journey into a unique realm of sounds and textures.
Flicker Vertigo: Flicker Vertigo are a psychedelic rock/dream pop/shoegaze/garage fuzz wall of sound band based in Bournemouth in South Coast UK, with a maximal live show and a new album released June 2024. Bursting with crunchy psychedelic textures, sun-dappled guitar hooks swirling in an explosive wall of sound, blissed-out melodies fluttering overhead, and hypnotic, driving grooves whizzing by and melting into the kaleidoscopic haze It's a dreamy, cosmic, vertigo-inducing mixture that consumes you and transmits you skyward.
