Hello everyone, I'm Nathan, I own a music retail store that sells & repairs vintage stereo equipment called Sound Heritage (Nanaimo), I've lived on Vancouver Island for about 5 years & love the music & events scenes here! I've hosted many small live music events at my shop in the past two years, & am working on getting an outdoor space behind the store up to code for 100-200 person events in 2026-2027. Additionally, I'm into volunteering & working at festivals and burning man regional events, and am exploring ways to level up my skills in the off-seasons to be more helpful in these contexts. I attended the Laketown Events Training Program last year, gaining hands-on training in site operations and stage management. Was proud to lend my skills at Sunk City Music Fest, Pachena Bay, Otherworld & What If in summer 2025! I'm also learning to DJ, with Tech House as my first musical love in this regard! Hoping 2026 will be the year I perform in front of a crowd. Stoked to be a part of this intentional community and the collaborations to come 💫🎶🏞️

Hi Space Makers & Festival Shakers! I'm coming up from Qualicum to play a couple of sets of mostly original folky singer songwriter material at Char's on Feb 5 - I'd love to see some faces there. Who the hell am I? An Aussie-turned-Canadian indie folk storyteller. I like to write emotive storytelling songs, with an emphasis on lyricism, odd tunings and a dash of humour every now and then. I'll be joined onstage for a few songs by violinist and all round legend Ian Cromwell (he might make me weep mid song, fair warning). Will bust out a banjo and some songs on Char's piano too Orig song - Coquihalla Highway Orig song - Glad I met you (Sorry About All the Fires) Qualicum forest covers Orig song - Quicksilver More vids etc on the website Thursday February 5th 2026 doors 6:30pm concert 7:30-9:30pm - if any of this sounds interesting to you: ticket link
