Gallery – The Last Dinner Party at the Vogue Theatre in Vancouver, BC

Published

on

On March 10th, British rock band The Last Dinner Party brought their tour to a sold-out Vogue Theatre in Vancouver, BC to support their debut album Prelude to Ecstasy.

American indie-rock artist Miss Grit opened the night with a conceptual set casting various light patterns on an otherwise dark stage. With most of her face and body obscured, it brought her beautiful vocals to the forefront.

Around 9pm, the band, consisting of Abigail Morris (vocals), Emily Roberts (lead guitar), Lizzie Mayland (rhythm guitar), Georgia Davies (bass) and Aurora Nishevci (keyboards), appeared on stage amidst the dramatic intro of “Prelude to Ecstasy.” The band launched into high gear with “Burn Alive” and “Caesar on a TV Screen.” Led by Morris, all members made an extra effort with their outfits (re-used from their press photoshoots) and their stage presence.

For “Portrait Of A Dead Girl”, Morris requested the help of the audience for background vocals creating a palpable connection with the fans and elevating everyone’s experience.

The Last Dinner Party saved the best for last as they ended their 13-song set with their worldwide hit “Nothing Matters.” As their first headlining tour, the band delivered an unforgettable performance and solidify their status as one-to-watch.

The Last Dinner Party will end the North American leg of their tour on April 16th in San Francisco but will come back for a few more dates in the summer. More info on the band’s website.

Turnover Brings ‘Down On Earth Tour’ to Ventura Music Hall

Turnover-Ventura-14

On July 2nd, American rock band Turnover brought the North American leg of the Down On Earth Tour to a sold out Ventura Music Hall in sunny California. The concert featured opening acts by Minneapolis indie rock band She’s Green and Dallas-based grunge/rock band Narrow Head.

As She’s Green took the stage, the crowd sang along and swayed to the music. The soft, indie music helped ease fans into what was going to be an incredible night in Ventura. When Narrow Head took the stage, the atmosphere drastically changed. The heavy rock music shook the venue. Heads began to thrash and bang as Narrow Head rocked out. A moshpit even formed in the middle of the crowd! The energy that Turnover needed was definitely there that night. After both sets from the co-openers, the crowd was warmed up and ready for Turnover.

These two openers joined Turnover for the first part of their 2026 Down On Earth Tour, which includes twenty-nine shows across North America. The tour began in Allentown, PA, and will end in Olympia, WA. The North American and Canadian segment starts again on November 3rd in Cincinnati, OH, and concludes on December 10th in Asheville, NC.

Founded by brothers Austin (lead vocals) and Casey Getz (drums), along with their childhood friend Danny Dempsey (bass), Turnover later added Nick Rayfield (lead guitar, piano) in 2022 after touring with the band since 2017.

Initially, the band was considered emo from 2011-2014, following their 2013 debut album, Magnolia, influenced by Blink-182 and Title Fight; the band shifted towards a more atmospheric indie rock style after releasing Peripheral Vision in 2015. They drew inspiration from Beach House, Interpol, The Smiths, among others, with each album showcasing new musical influences.

For their latest album, Down on Earth, Turnover experimented by stepping away from their longtime producer and relying on improvisation. Celebrating the 10th anniversary of Peripheral Vision, they revisited their earlier sound and lyricism that distinguished their early work.

The band aimed for a ‘less escape, more presence’ vibe on this record, moving away from psychedelic dream-pop towards themes inspired by natural environments, intimacy, and physical distance between people.

Bôa Brings ‘Whiplash’ Tour to the Commodore Ballroom in Vancouver

British alternative rock band Bôa closed out the North American leg of their Whiplash tour with a memorable sold-out performance at Vancouver’s Commodore Ballroom on June 27. Making their long-awaited Vancouver debut, the trio was welcomed by an enthusiastic crowd that had clearly been waiting years for this moment.

Opening the evening was Vancouver-based Taiwanese-Canadian singer-songwriter Jia. Blending dream pop, indie rock, earthy Americana, and cinematic influences, her set created the perfect atmosphere before the night’s headliner. Songs from her album Technicolour showcased her haunting vocals and thoughtful songwriting, earning warm applause from an audience that quickly settled into the evening.

When Bôa took the stage, the room erupted. Frontwoman Jasmine Rodgers immediately drew the audience in with her effortlessly expressive vocals, balancing softness and strength throughout the band’s set. Her voice remains the defining element of Bôa‘s sound, carrying emotional weight that translated beautifully in a live setting.

The band moved through fan favourites including “Twilight,” “Fool,” “Drinking,” and newer material from Whiplash, proving that their recent resurgence is built on far more than nostalgia. During “Drinking,” phone lights illuminated the Commodore, creating one of the night’s most memorable moments as fans swayed together.

One of the night’s biggest surprises came when legendary classic rock singer Paul Rodgers, best known as the frontman of Free and Bad Company, made a brief appearance on stage. Joining his daughter Jasmine Rodgers for a touching father-daughter moment, the special guest appearance was met with loud cheers from the Commodore Ballroom crowd.

Despite it being the final stop of a lengthy North American tour, the band played with remarkable energy. Smiles were constant across the stage, and it was clear they were enjoying every minute of their Vancouver debut.

The encore delivered exactly what fans had hoped for. As the opening notes of “Duvet” rang out, the entire venue seemed to sing in unison. The song’s renewed popularity may have introduced a new generation to Bôa, but hearing hundreds of voices fill the Commodore proved its emotional impact has never faded.

For a first visit to Vancouver, Bôa left a lasting impression. Their final North American show was equal parts intimate and powerful, ending the tour on a high note while leaving fans hoping they won’t wait as long before returning.
