We're baaaack! After a much hand physio for Reido and 4 month lung infection for CVM, we are in great need of some singing for our people. Help us get back in the saddle and come get lost in the song by joining us for the SUMMER SONGBIRD SESSIONS Thursday JUNE 11 - 7pm-9pm FREE/PWYC downstairs at the Irish Heather (now in Chinatown). (NOTE: Aside from Pigeon sand the odd benefit shows, this will be the only chance to see us live moving forward.)Only YOU can keep live music alive! Join us at our early, monthly, singersongwriter residency at the Irish Heather in Vancouver. A mix of compelling originals and killer covers, trying out new tunes and digging up old gems, tears and laughter, anything goes! Nothing traditional about it – and all about the song. Feeling lonely? Have you been meaning to meet up with pals or make new friends? Maybe get out to see more live music but don’t love big concert venues? We aim to create connection at this legendary pub now located in Chinatown – just a 10 minute walk from the Main St/Chinatown Skytrain. We perform downstairs where the sound is fantastic, the food and drink delicious, and the show is over blissfully early. Date night done right! With special guests dropping in – anything can happen in the Scéal Eile! Join us for a pint and/or a bite, and get lost in the song…

REID JAMIESON & CVM (Vancouver acoustic duo)
https://reidjamieson.com
“Gorgeous, sun-struck acoustic soul”- Globe & Mail
“Prepare to be surprised” – Vancouver Province
Vancouver’s Reid Jamieson & CVM are a vocal powerhouse making music that matters and moves us. With an incredible voice, spirited guitar playing, and a magical way with melodies, Reid is that rare songbird whose originals are every bit as compelling as his interpretations. In years past, Reid was a regular on CBC’s Vinyl Café, has recorded with Cowboy Junkies, and performed with Mary Margaret O’Hara, members of Blue Rodeo, Be Good Tanyas and more. A classic introvert/extrovert combo, Reid shines alongside his saucy wife and long-time songwriting partner Carolyn Victoria Mill, where their unique harmonies and swapping of lead vocals make for an eclectic, entertaining, and sometimes heartbreaking variety show. Together they won the John Lennon Songwriting Contest and wrote their way in to the Vancouver Folk Festival by winning 1st place in their Pickin’ a Folk Star contest. Tireless promoters of voting, equality, and love, they thrive on creating intimacy, causing tears and laughter in equal measures. Their latest all original album ‘Me Daza’ was recorded in Ireland with producer Kieran Kennedy (Maria Doyle Kennedy) which features the posthumous (!) vocals of Fergus O’Farrell (Interference, Once). There is nothing traditional about the record – or this dynamic duo. With tributes to Leonard Cohen, John Lennon, 50s & 60s era gold, and what could be mistaken for a simple holiday record, their catalog is an ever evolving, genre-free wonder. 2023 saw them launch an all original folk opera about Pigeons(!) and the causes of housing insecurity. The Pigeon & The Dove premiered at the Vancouver Fringe Fest where they took home the prestigious Social Impact Award. In 2025 they made their US premiere in Seattle and Bellingham, deep in the US/Canada trade war, and are currently working on recording an album of original songs from the Pigeon for a late 2026 release. You won’t want to miss what they do next…
