Remi Wolf at the Orpheum Theatre in Vancouver, BC – Gallery
On September 14, pop singer Remi Wolf brought her Big Ideas Tour to the Orpheum Theatre in Vancouver, BC.
British-Jamaican musician and director, Lava La Rue, opened the night with their 2-piece band and shared songs from their latest album STARFACE.
Shortly after 9pm, Remi Wolf appeared, backlit in a sea of fog, ready to fire up the Orpheum. From the moment she stepped on stage, wearing a flowy dress and rider boots, she radiated an infectious and electrifying charm. The modern stage design, complete with a massive light wall, and a podium for her entire band, set the perfect backdrop for Wolf’s lively antics.
She danced, and leapt around with the enthusiasm of someone untethered. Anyone familiar with Wolf’s music knew she would be keeping the crowd entertained. Her effortless charisma and laissez-faire delivery captivated the audience throughout.
Wolf’s musicality that truly shone last night. She effortlessly balanced talent with self-awareness, connecting with the crowd. Fans laughed, danced, and absorbed the good vibes Wolf was sending their way. It was a joyous celebration of music, art, and unadulterated fun. Two standouts moment where the improv song (“to keep [herself] challenged“) where she asks the audience for one word (purple raven) and one key (E flat major) to create a whole new song; and the line dancing before “Toro”.
Remi Wolf’s performance was a whirlwind of energy and pure joy, a perfect reflection of her Big Ideas album. Catch Remi Wolf on tour in the North America until October 16th, before she jumps over the pond for the UK leg of the tour. More info on her website.

Joyce Manor Bring I Used To Go To This Bar Tour to the Commodore Ballroom in Vancouver
On May 11th, American punk rock band Joyce Manor brought their I Used To Go To This Bar Tour to the Commodore Ballroom in Vancouver for a high-energy, jam-packed set.
The punk rock band from Torrance, California, was formed in 2008. Known for their fast, emotionally charged songs and energetic live shows, they became a major influence in modern emo and pop-punk with albums like Never Hungover Again and 40 oz. to Fresno.
Taking the stage at 9:45 pm, Joyce Manor ran through an impressive 24-song set, jumping into hit after hit, with little downtime. The band kept the energy in the room throughout the night, with lots of moshing and crowdsurfing, especially in their hits “Catalina Fight Song”, “Heart Tattoo,” and “Constant Headache.”
Between the mayhem, the band’s songs evoke a deep sense of nostalgia, capturing the feeling of past heartbreak and growing up. Barry Johnson’s emotionally charged vocals, paired with the band’s raw, unfiltered guitar sound, have a way of making you get into your feelings.
The 24-song set allowed Joyce Manor to premiere a lot of their new material from I Used To Go To This Bar, while ripping through some of their biggest hits on cult favourites, Never Hungover Again and Joyce Manor, leaving something for everyone to enjoy.

Good Kid Bring ‘Can We Hang Out?’ Tour to the Vogue Theatre in Vancouver
On May 10th, Canadian indie rock band Good Kid brought their Can We Hang Out? Tour to the Vogue Theatre in Vancouver. The Toronto-born group, known for their high-energy performances and catchy melodies, kept the Vancouver crowd going all night long with their quirky personalities and interactions with the crowd.
The band is touring in support of their first full-length studio album, Can We Hang Out Sometime? — A bright, energetic indie rock record about the importance of staying connected when life feels chaotic.
Good Kid took to the stage around 9:00 pm, previewing the fresh sounds of Can We Hang Out Sometime? Opening with the catchy “Wall”. Instantly, the band had the crowd at their fingertips, singing along to every single lyric and getting the whole venue jumping up and down.
The Toronto group have built one of the strongest artist–fan relationships in modern indie rock by making their audience feel like an active part of the band’s world rather than just consumers of their music. There is an official Good Kid discord server, and they regularly engage with their fans on social media. They’ve also tapped into the gaming/streaming space, letting people use their music without aggressive copyright enforcement and have made a name for themselves in the Fortnite community.
Through the night, the band ran through their hits like “From the Start”, Mimi’s Delivery Service”, “Cicada”, “Summer” and “Bubbly.”
The show was full of antics with a wall of death, playing basketball with a giant beach ball and hula hoops, and even lead singer Nick Frosst at one point joining the moshpit. With a show of hands, it was about half of the venue’s first concert experience, and Good Kid definitely made it one to remember.
One thing is for sure — anytime Good Kid rolls into town, Vancouver is always down to hang out sometime.
