Peach Pit & Briston Maroney at Deer Lake Park in Burnaby

Published

on

You couldn’t have asked for a better night. The sky was blue, the grass was dry, and the vibes were dialed in as Briston Maroney and Peach Pit co-headlined the Long Hair, Long Life Tour at Deer Lake Park. If the show had any flaws, no one noticed. Everyone was too busy dancing, yelling lyrics, and taking mental screenshots of a night that just felt good.

BNNY set the tone with a short set, mixing softness with sharpness. It felt like the calm before the storm, and sure enough, Briston Maroney came charging onstage like someone had dropped a Mentos into his Coke. “Real Good Swimmer” cracked the night open with a rockier edge than fans might expect from his records. The crowd responded with instantly, dancing, clapping, and feeding off Maroney’s everything-all-at-once stage presence.

From there, he bounced between rock ragers and slow-burn heart-tuggers. A mid-set breather brought out Pacoustic version of “Land of Light” and “Caroline”. It was an unexpected but welcome mood shift that hit especially hard as golden hour started to lit up the park. Later, he closed his set with “Freakin’ Out on the Interstate,” which turned into a massive, arms-in-the-air chorus.

Peach Pit followed and never let the energy dip. The Vancouver hometown heroes got a hero’s welcome, especially when they kicked off with a cover of Black Sabbath’s “War Pigs” before sliding into the groove of “Magpie.” Neil Smith was his usual goofy, charming self, trading jokes with the audience, dancing like no one was watching, and somehow managing to make chaos feel effortless.

Their setlist hit all the fan-favourite checkpoints: “Give Up Baby Go,” “Alrighty Aphrodite,” “Shampoo Bottles.” And the crowd was all in, singing every word, jumping along, and forming little dance pits across the lawn. The newer tracks from Magpie landed strong too.

The encore was more than just an extra song. Smith came out solo to share how the band started and played the original version of “Peach Pit.” Then came “Tommy’s Party,” with both Smith and Wilton’s dads joining in. A great ending to the set.

Briston Maroney and Peach Pit are very different performers, but that’s what made the show work. One brings the whirlwind, the other brings the sway. Together, they turned a warm, beautiful night at Deer Lake Park into something unforgettable.

Good Kid Bring ‘Can We Hang Out?’ Tour to MTelus in Montreal

GoodKid-Montreal-19

On May 19th, 2026, fans packed into MTELUS for the Montreal stop of Good Kid’s Can We Hang Out? tour. This is the second headline show the band has had in Montreal, the first being at Le Studio TD for their This Can’t Be The End tour.

First up was an opening performance by Glitter Party, which faced no difficulty in setting the tone for the night. A set filled with colourful lights, movement, and captivating vocals, matched well with Good Kid’s style, both in performance and music, leaving fans bouncing in anticipation for the main act.

After a charming reading of a couple pages from “The Hobbit” by lead vocalist Nick Frosst as the stage was being set up, the band began the set, opening with “Wall”. Immediately, there was no doubt that this would be a night to remember. The band came out in style, and the energy built up instantly through flashing lights, jumps and head-bangs.

Being from Toronto, the band earned laughs as they expressed they were happy to be back in
Canada after touring in the US, and had the crowd erupting in cheers as they congratulated the city on the Montreal Canadiens hockey win the night before.

The night continued with back-to-back hits, including “Cicada”, “Summer”, of course, “From The Start”, and finally closing the set with “Mimi’s Delivery Service”.

Good Kid sets an incredible standard of immersing a crowd in their world, from an elaborate stage design, beautiful merch that matches their aesthetic, to lots of crowd involvement including a wave of death and lots of crowd surfing! Although for many, Good Kid was not their first concert, it is very safe to say it was one of their favourites!

Approximately two years after their last visit to the country, PETRA returned to Argentina to celebrate their fifty years as a band with a show at Arena Sur in Buenos Aires on May 16th, as part of their 50th Anniversary World Tour.

The tour, which also serves as the presentation of their new album HOPE, has already visited countries such as Costa Rica and Finland, and will continue through Mexico, Switzerland, and the United States.

Considered one of the most important and influential bands in Christian rock history, PETRA has impacted multiple generations throughout its five decades of career. The band has released more than twenty albums, including studio records, live albums, and compilations, sold nearly ten million copies worldwide, and received four Grammy Awards and ten Dove Awards. They also became the first Christian band inducted into the Gospel Music Hall of Fame.

During this new era, the group is also presenting HOPE, their twenty-first album and first studio record featuring new songs in more than twenty years. The release includes “Deliver Us,” the lead single inspired by Ephesians 6:12-13 and centered around a message of faith and spiritual strength.

The night at Arena Sur began with a performance by La PaezSystem as the opening act, kicking off an evening marked by rock and faith-based music.

After fifty years of career, PETRA continues to keep alive the legacy that turned them into one of the most recognized bands within Christian rock music.
