Event Description

14 Flamingos will be celebrating the power of the word, and the release of their new book of lyrics and thoughts. Accompanied by their usual menagerie of clowns, jugglers, burlesque and drag performers, they will take you through a night of art upon art. The evening will also include performances by Pindian, and Cameron Schaefer.
14 Flamingos:
Soundtracks to bad decisions and lawn ornaments on your walk of shame. A community and a collective of musicians, who work with dancers, artists and circus performers to bring the weird and wonderful to the stage. Combining sounds of art rock, nu-wave. surf rock, burn barrel barber shop quartets, and lost n found 33s in forgotten roadside thrift stores. Singer, songwriter, storyteller and clown Steve Craik is joined by long time friend, collaborator and drummer Brendan Pye, Alex Moore on keys and synth, Jeff Birmongham on trumpet, Josh Stull on Bass and Adam Cleland on the lead guitar. There are two types of people in this world, 14 Flamingos are the other kind.
Performing on stage along with 14 Flamingos will be:
Drop Zone (Juggling duo)
Nu Metal Cowboy
Doomi the Clown
Jake Voltage
And more


Pindian:
Pindian is a Kwakwa̲ka̲'wakw and Nuu-Cha-Nulth MC born on lək̓ʷəŋən Territory (A.K.A Victoria B.C) who in 3 years of sobriety, has found immense healing in expressing themselves through lyricism in the genre of Hip Hop which they view to be an innovative, creative-native continuation of their nation’s tradition of storytelling, told through artistic practices since time immemorial.
Pindian started performing in the Summer Season of 2022 and since then has shared their songs on various stages and venues both in Victoria and Vancouver such as the Vancouver Playhouse for the 3rd International Indigenous Hip Hop Awards’ Trade Show at the Vancouver Playhouse and UVIC’s Farquhar Auditorium.
They aim to honour the roots of their culture and old school Hip Hop while sharing their stories through rhyme which make statements about healing through the intergenerational, traumatic effects of colonization, honouring their west coast lineage while also embracing tricksterism and having a few laughs and a good time while doing so.
They are also a mural artist, painter, theatre performer and facilitator of workshops.

Cameron Schaefer:
A new favorite in the Victoria music scene, Cameron Schaefer played keyboards in rock, blues and jazz bands for many years. Now he writes and performs his own songs. You’ll laugh, you’ll cry, you’ll spit up on yourself.

Part of proceeds will be donated to the Lil' Red Dress Project.
