The Janzen Boys-Open Seas Tour— 7:00pm

SOLD OUT

The Janzen Boys are a father-and-son-led folk/roots trio from Winnipeg, Canada, known for their tight three-part harmonies, heartfelt songs, and touching live shows. Formed in 2012, their journey began as a busking act at The Forks market before quickly growing into a full-fledged family band. Often described as a male counterpart to The Wailin' Jennys, their sound is frequently compared to artists like Simon & Garfunkel, Neil Young, and the Barenaked Ladies.

Since 2024, The Janzen Boys have toured relentlessly throughout Canada, steadily building a loyal following through captivating live performances and a grassroots approach to connecting with listeners online. Known for heartfelt originals and familiar covers, they’ve built a reputation for delivering both warmth and energy on stage.

Funding from FACTOR Canada and Manitoba Film & Music is now fuelling their upcoming project, The Great Unknown, set for release in late 2026. Produced by Murray Pulver (Crash Test Dummies, Doc Walker) and Trey Mills (Forest Blakk), it promises a vibrant mix of originals, traditional songs, and country-driven rockers. As they prepare to unveil The Great Unknown, The Janzen Boys are poised to bring their earnest, harmony-rich sound to new heights, proving that in a crowded musical landscape, their authenticity and craft stand tall among the weeds.

What people have to say:

“For starters, they are the Wailin’ Jennys of male harmony trios... If you think dudes can’t move you with the beauty of their delicately intermingling voices, you need to hear the Janzen Boys sing ‘One for the Road.’” - Heather Kitching, Roots Music Canada 

"With harmonies that are out of this world, The Janzen Boys will have you laughing, crying, and singing along as they perform classic country songs that we all know and love, and great catchy originals that will be delightfully stuck in your head for days.” - St. John’s Heritage Church & Arts Centre

“Whether you are in need of soul soothing harmony or the upbeat strum energy of Americana instruments like mandolin, bass, and guitar, these boys will deliver… their combination of honesty and integrity in the way they shape a note within unique songwriting will stand out among the weeds.” - Canada Music Spotlight

“I have never booked someone to the Calgary Folk Club without seeing them live, but I did with these guys.” - Suze Casey, Artistic Director, Calgary Folk Club

TICKETS: $30 each or 4 tickets for $100

Swan Lake— 7:00pm

Valley Drama School presents the story behind the famous ballet in this theatrical adaptation!

Join Valley Drama School for an evening of magic, comedy and adventure (complete with an evil sorcerer and swan princesses) perfect for families!

More about the story of Swan Lake: The law of the land says that Prince Siegfried must chose a bride by the end of his twenty-first birthday, but the princesses assembled by the queen and Lord Chamberlain just won’t do! So Siegfried escapes later that evening for a quick hunting expedition into the woods, where he nearly shoots at what turns out to be his one true love, Odette. Unfortunately for her and Siegfried, Odette is under a spell of evil sorcerer Von Rothbart and is doomed to spend her days as a swan, taking her human form only at night. It’s all part of the master plan for Von Rothbart, who will stop at nothing to gain power over the kingdom — including using his daughter Odile to trick Siegfried and capture the throne. Luckily, just when it looks as though Von Rothbart will have his way, true love prevails.

Presented by Valley Drama School
