The evening offered a bit of everything, from slam poets and duologues, to dancers, singers, drummers, pianists, and guitarists. Each performer brought their style and passion to the stage, delivering a show that catered to a wide range of genres and tastes. Well done to all the learners who took part, you were all truly spectacular!
One of the highlights of the night was the performance by the teacher band, which has quickly become a crowd favourite. This year’s band featured Darryl-Ann Hall and Gabriela Masson on vocals, James Mathie on bass guitar, Lisa Oswald on keyboard, and Bianca Boucher on drums. Their performance was met with cheers from the audience, and it looks like this could become a beloved tradition at future events.
