A fun night filled with singer songwriters Joal Kamps, Katelyn Steinwand, Jesse Northey and more.
Born just East of the Rocky Mountains in Calgary Alberta, Joal Kamps has always had an affinity for the arts and the outdoors. The Canadian Rockies often provide a much needed escape for Kamps as he ventures off into the wilderness to recharge his spirit and find much of his artistic inspiration for new songs and visual works.

Since 2008, Joal has released two EP’s, signed a distribution contract for North America and Europe, completed three Western Canadian tours, and has performed at festival dates across Western Canada, the United States, and Europe! This first European Tour saw him play 18 dates across the Netherlands and Belgium. He also produced a professional music video for his first album, done numerous live video performances, has secured grant funding for recording, and is back in studio working on his first ever full length record. At this point it looks like nothing will slow him down; it’s full speed ahead!

Kamps' latest release 'the RED ep' is out now - and available on iTUNES, CD Baby, and other online retailers.

About Katelyn Steinwand www.myspace.com/katelynsteinwand 

I write these songs because I am compelled to do so. Something deep inside of me needs this release, this beautiful escape in which music seems to offer me so perfectly. For a moment I am beholden. For a time, I am consumed. Inspiration is all around me; often times the most painful experience produces the most meaningful art. This is art. This is subjective. Take from it what you will and leave behind what fails to move you. Know though that all of this comes straight from my heart. As much as this is my release, I want it to be yours too. As much as it is my escape, I want it to be yours as well. How beautiful it is when we discover we are not in this alone! This life is full of mutual experiences… we just tend to perceive our experiences as individual and exclusive. Music can offer that sense of community that seems to be so lacking today, that chance to understand and to feel understood...even if only for a short moment. In the end, I just want connection through raw uncensored expression. In the end I just want to move and be moved. Let this be the catalyst, let this be the long awaited moment of catharsis…let it be whatever it is you need it to be most. -KS
