Scene It!

The members of Moses Mayes are no strangers to Revelstoke and are always up for a giant yard party. This Winnipeg borne band never forgets the little people who throw big parties even if it is in suburbia Revelstoke. With a verbal dedication to, ‘create solid beats, funky rhythms, and butt-shaking music’ well, really, can you object to such harmony? If you missed it this time, you may get another chance.

Musical Notes

The 6th Annual Mountain Beats and Blues Festival had a great line up of awesome musicians, yummy food, cool artisans … and lousy weather on opening night! This may seem early, but it’s time for those of us who want the event to continue and grow to create a new entity to run the festival. The Revelstoke Arts Council has been the major sponsoring organization for the past two seasons. There is a small group of committed folks with experience who are willing to continue with the festival, but we need new energy. Jeff Colvin, a local teacher has suggested organizing an Ultimate (disc sport) tournament in conjunction with the festival and this could add a whole new dimension to the audience. We will be holding a meeting early in the fall to discuss the possibilities for next year. If you are interested in being involved, call Carol Palladino at 837-5345.
