Boslen at the Hollywood Theatre in Vancouver
On March 15, Boslen made a triumphant return to Vancouver’s Hollywood Theatre, delivering an electrifying homecoming show that proved just how far he’s come. With a packed venue of devoted fans, the night felt less like a concert and more like a celebration of his journey and the city that shaped him.
The night kicked off with Elijah Blond, whose smooth vocals and laid-back R&B-infused sound set the perfect tone. His soulful performance drew the crowd in early, creating an intimate vibe before daysormay took the stage. Blending melodic rap with high-energy moments, daysormay had the audience moving and fully locked in, setting the stage for what was to come.
When Boslen finally stepped onto the stage, the energy in the room exploded. The Hollywood Theatre’s tight space amplified every beat, making the crowd feel even more locked in as he moved effortlessly between high-energy anthems, melodic deep cuts and unreleased tracks. Tracks like “Deny” and “VULTURES” had the entire venue bouncing, with fans hanging on every word. His ability to shift between explosive intensity and emotional depth made the set feel dynamic, keeping the audience fully engaged.
As the night progressed, Boslen took a moment to reflect on his journey, speaking directly to the crowd about what it meant to perform in his hometown. When he launched into “EYE FOR AN EYE”, the room swayed with the weight of the moment, showing how deeply connected he is to his music and the people who support him.
Just when it seemed like the night couldn’t get any bigger, Boslen closed with “LEVELS”, sending the Hollywood Theatre into a final frenzy. Fans jumped, screamed, and let loose one last time, fully immersed in the moment. This wasn’t just a performance—it was a statement. Boslen has arrived, and Vancouver was there to witness it.

Marianas Trench Pack History Ottawa, With Fionn Opening
Vancouver acts on both ends of the bill. Fionn opened and Marianas Trench headlined at History Ottawa on October 24, 2026.
Fionn, a pair of twins, had a room that was already nearly full by the time they hit the stage, which isn’t always a given for an opener. They made the most of it with a high-energy set that never let up, and with the two working well together, and feeding off each other’s energy. They were rocking out the whole way through, and it set the tone for the night.
Marianas Trench took the stage to a crowd that was loud from the start and sang along throughout, often seeming to carry the songs as much as the band did.
The set covered a wide range of their discography, from newer hits like “Down to You” to older fan favourites like “Stutter” and “Cross My Heart.” Longtime fans and newer ones got their moments, and the crowd knew every word either way.
Frontman Josh Ramsey, on lead vocals and guitar, controlled the room from start to finish. He was engaging and constantly connected with the audience, and his vocals were fantastic. Midway through the night he left the stage and walked through the crowd, a staple of his at many shows. It brought him face to face with the fans singing back at him, a moment I’m sure they’ll never forget.
It was a strong night for Vancouver music in Ottawa: an opener that came to play and a headliner that had the whole room with them.

Epik High Turns Vancouver’s Orpheum Into a Hip-Hop Party
Epik High brought its 3.0 Tour 2026 to Vancouver’s Orpheum on October 20, delivering a night of sharp lyricism, ridiculous humour and plenty of crowd interaction. With BOBO.XX opening the show, the Korean hip-hop trio proved that more than two decades into their career, they still know how to make a concert feel like a party among friends.
BOBO.XX, a musician and photographer who works on Epik High’s video and content, warmed up the audience with a taste of his own sound before handing the stage over to the headliners. Anticipation grew during the break, and the theatre erupted when Tablo, Mithra Jin and DJ Tukutz appeared for “High Technology,” followed by “One.”
The group’s chemistry was clear to everyone. Their introductions quickly turned into a comedy routine, complete with DJ Tukutz’s sound effects and playful jabs at one another. Tablo might be the trio’s longtime leader, but Tukutz had recently claimed the title through a band competition, giving the three plenty of material to work with.
That humour carried through the night. Fan-submitted Post-it challenges put the members on the spot, leading to dance covers, awkwardly adorable aegyo and plenty of laughter. The challenges often involved bending the rules, with multiple notes taped together and presented as a single request. The trio’s willingness to make fools of themselves made the audience feel like part of the show rather than spectators.
The music never took a back seat. Tracks such as “ANTIHERO,” “Rosario” and “BURJ KHALIFA” kept the room moving, with the group’s tight delivery matched by DJ Tukutz’s work behind the turntables. The mood shifted for more emotional performances, including “1 Minute, 1 Second” and Mithra Jin’s solo “Will I Be Okay?,” showing a more vulnerable side to the performers.
The most meaningful moment came when Tablo spoke about the group’s long journey. His message was simple: if Epik High could keep pushing forward after 22 years, fans could overcome their own obstacles, too. It gave “Born Hater” an extra punch.
The trio closed with an encore of “EPIKISM” and “Don’t Hate Me,” sending the crowd home smiling. Epik High’s strength lies in the balance between serious musicianship and complete silliness. They can deliver an emotional message one minute and turn a fan-requested dance challenge into a comedy show the next. At the Orpheum, that combination made for a concert that felt personal, unpredictable and a whole lot of fun.
