PETRA Celebrated Their 50th Anniversary in Argentina with the “50th Anniversary World Tour”

Published

on

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.

Epik High Turns Vancouver’s Orpheum Into a Hip-Hop Party

Published

EpikHigh-Vancouver-38

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.

Buffalo Traffic Jam at the Danforth Music Hall in Toronto

Buffalo Traffic Jam-Toronto-4

There is something magical about voices matching the season. The excitement of walking up to the Danforth Music Hall on the perfect autumn night, only to be engulfed in raw, emotive rasp.

Lydia Maes really pulled me in. There’s such an emotional quality to her voice. The way she incorporates the saxophone and the way she hypnotizes the crowd. She played a beautiful set and then later came out with her fiddle, to join Buffalo Traffic Jam.

Colin Lynch completely caught me off guard, with a voice that sounds like he sells out stadiums. He’s young, but that soulful, raspy, depth speaks to every age. 

Then came the one and only Buffalo Traffic Jam. Gritty, earthy harmonies took over the Danforth and the crowd was electrified. There’s something about their sound that feels both stripped down and warm at the same time, and the moment they started, we were all at their mercy.
