I moved here from Newfoundland 10 years ago. I’m use to a very vibrant live music scene with dozens of bands playing a dozen different venues on any given night. I found Kelowna was really lacking in promotion for live music around town, and it was hard to find one source that gathered all the show listings around town. It has definitley gotten better with more promotions/marketing and with venues like The Habitat bringing great live shows to Kelowna over the past 4 years.
I am an MC from Vancouver who will be rolling through your town as part of the Warren G tour. I was looking to get any kind of press or play before hand and/or while in some of the towns I’m hitting with Kelowna being a major focus.

I look forward to hearing from you. Respect on a kick ass blog and for preserving music culture in this province.

Hi Jason,
Thanks for putting this site together. I am originally from Salford, Greater Manchester, England, so I am use to a very vibrant music scene too. It’s great to have a site where much of the information regarding local live music is available. Keep up the good work!
Hey Jason,
Thanks very much for putting this site together. I am new in town, recently moved from Nelson where we had a really good live music scene for such a small city. I was the owner and manager of The Royal for two years, and really miss the concerts, so that’s why I’m grateful you put this site together.
I started a Facebook Group Kelowna Social Club, and I want to get groups of people to come out and see the shows. If you’d join my group I’d be grateful.
Cheers,
Luke Joseph Menkes
