Lime Cordiale at the Vogue Theatre in Vancouver
On March 15, Australian indie pop rock band Lime Cordiale brought their Enough of the Sweet Talk Tour to a packed Vogue Theatre in Vancouver, BC.
Currently touring their latest album, Enough of the Sweet Talk, the Leimbach brothers—Oli and Louis—delivered a show that was as much a spectacle as it was a singalong, despite Louis’s voice being impacted due to illness right before their arrival to Vancouver.
Fronted by Elijah Gibbins-Croft, SoCal band Foxtide opened the night, and performed songs from their EPs Visions and Paradise.
Shortly after 9pm, the lights dimmed and the energy in the room changed. The stage pulsed with colourful neon visuals on the screen and light tubes, shifting with the mood of each song. But no light show could outshine the sheer charisma of these two frontmen. Whether bouncing around the stage, simulating comicbook-like fight or leading the crowd in call-and-response singalongs, their dynamic chemistry was impossible to ignore.
The five-piece band kept things interesting, even including a kazoo moment (because why not?). The setlist covered all the fan favourites, from the irresistibly groovy “Country Club” to “Temper Temper”, proving just how well Enough of the Sweet Talk translates live.
Lime Cordiale’s ability to turn a venue into a full-blown party is impressive. Whether playing sold-out arenas back home in Australia or packing out a smaller venue in Vancouver, they bring the same unfiltered joy and energy. If you get the chance to catch them live, don’t hesitate—they put on a show that’s impossible not to love.
Lime Cordiale will be on tour in North America until March 26 before heading off to Mexico and Australia. More info on their website.

Wave To Earth Bring ‘the pieces tour’ to Vancouver
By the time Wave to Earth took the stage at Doug Mitchell Thunderbird Arena on September 4, Vancouver was already buzzing. A lineup stretched around the block as fans waited to see the South Korean indie-rock trio kick off the first date of their the pieces tour in the city.
The band’s stage setup immediately set the tone, arranged to look like a cozy living room, complete with windows that opened onto a constantly changing view of the world outside. The clever screens showed footage filmed just outside the arena, creating the illusion that the stage was looking out onto the neighbourhood. Periodically, TransLink buses could be seen passing by, an unexpectedly Vancouver specific detail that made the arena feel intimate.
That sense of intimacy carried into the band’s entrance, with lead singer Daniel Kim stepping onto the stage wearing a UBC Arts cap, a small but memorable nod to the city and its university community.
From the opening notes, Wave to Earth leaned into the warm, laid-back atmosphere that has made their music resonate with fans around the world. The contrast between the arena’s size and the deliberately homey stage design made the show feel like being invited into the band’s living room.
As the opening night of the pieces tour, the Vancouver show set the tone for what promises to be a visually thoughtful and atmospheric run of dates.

Goose Brings their ‘Summer Tour’ to the Commodore Ballroom in Vancouver
Goose brought their 2026 Summer Tour to Vancouver on Tuesday night, turning the Commodore Ballroom into a sweaty, late-night dance party that stretched well past 11 p.m.
The Connecticut-based quartet — Rick Mitarotonda, Peter Anspach, Trevor Weekz and drummer Cotter Ellis — has built a reputation for letting songs breathe onstage, and Vancouver got the full treatment. The band played two sets and an encore, giving the crowd plenty of room to settle into the grooves and watch the songs take unexpected turns.
The first set opened with “Yeti” before moving through “All I Need,” “Turbulence & The Night Rays” and “Time to Flee.” “Everything Must Go” kept things moving before “Hungersite” closed the set with one of the night’s bigger stretches of improvisation.
After a break, Goose returned and launched into “Electric Avenue,” a crowd-pleasing choice that had the Commodore singing along.
There was little interest in rushing through the evening. Goose gave each section space, moving from tight grooves to loose instrumental passages without making the show feel like a collection of extended solos.
For a band coming off a European run and heading into some of its biggest U.S. shows, Vancouver felt like another strong stop on the way. The Commodore may be a much smaller room than Madison Square Garden or SPAC, but Goose seemed perfectly happy to stretch out inside it.
