Wave To Earth at the Malkin Bowl in Vancouver, BC – Gallery
On September 15, South Korean indie trio Wave To Earth kicked off the US/Canada leg of their 0.03 World Tour with bang with a sold out show in Vancouver, BC. Due to high demand, the venue even had to be upgraded from the Vogue Theatre to the Malkin Bowl in the heart of Stanley Park.
Kindie band duo, PRYVT, opened the night and warmed up everyone for the main act.
From the moment fans began queuing outside Malkin Bowl, the atmosphere was electric. The excitement of the fans lining up was undeniable, as everyone jockeyed to get the best spot at the barricade.
As the lights dimmed, rapturous applause and ear-piercing screams erupted. The opening notes reverberated through the open-air venue, sending the audience into a frenzy. Cellphones were instantly raised, screens capturing every detail of the performance, as fans as fans recorded digital memories to cherish.
Hearing Wave To Earth live added a refreshing new layer to their sound. Compared to their studio recordings, the live renditions had a distinct energy, injecting their tracks with vibrancy and nuance. The addition of a saxophonist and keyboard player was a great touch. The band—comprising John Cha, Daniel Kim, and Dong Q—seemed to feed off the crowd’s energy, bringing their music to life in a way that felt truly special.
The entire US and Canada leg of Wave to Earth‘s tour is sold out, and it can be credited to the viral nature of some of their songs, including “Seasons,” “Peach Eyes” and “Bad.” Get more info about the tour here.

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 “Need,” “Turbulence” and “Time to Flee.” “Everything Must Go” and “Mr. Action” kept things moving before “Hungersite” closed the set with one of the night’s bigger stretches of improvisation.
After a break, Goose returned with “Tumble” and “Wysteria,” followed by a surprising cover of Radiohead’s “Weird Fishes.” “Jive I” brought the funk before the band launched into “Electric Avenue,” a crowd-pleasing choice that had the Commodore singing along.
“Lee” wrapped up the second set, but Goose wasn’t finished. The band returned for “Spin Me,” sending the crowd home after a long night of music.
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.

Chance The Rapper Brings ‘Coloring Book 10 Year Anniversary Tour’ to Montreal at MTelus
After 10 years since its release, Chance the Rapper is back on tour to celebrate his album Coloring Book! With Montreal being the 4th stop on the tour, many fans packed into Montreal’s MTELUS on August 15th, 2026, with no idea of what to expect.
First, the audience was thrilled by an energetic and upbeat performance by opener La Reezy. His quick lyrics and heavy instrumentals had no trouble in setting the tone for the night, specifically during “Gold Chains,” and with stellar crowd engagement during “We Live.”
Then, Chance the Rapper took the stage! With Coloring Book being such a staple in 2016, especially in the rap community, it is a daunting task to bring that nostalgic energy back on stage. But, with a 24-song setlist, Chance does just that. Unsurprisingly, half the setlist features songs from Coloring Book, with the set opening with “All We Got,” and closing with “Same Drugs,” featuring a confetti-filled performance of “No Problem” in the middle. However, Chance doesn’t shy away from performing a few hits from his other albums as well, such as “Link Me In The Future” from STAR LINE, and some older work in Acid Rap.
Overall, there is something powerful about hearing these songs a decade later. The themes stay the same, yet as both the artist and audience grow, there’s new meanings and emotions to be found in the lyrics. The anniversary show felt like a reunion for those who grew up with Coloring Book, and that’s what ultimately makes this tour a success.
