Event Description

May 24 Backyard Boulevard
Victoria Folk Music Society weekly gathering: Everyone—welcome Jam at 6:45pm, Open Stage at 7:30pm, Feature Performers Backyard Boulevard at 9:00pm; Friendship Hall (formerly Norway House) 1110 Hillside Avenue, $8 cash at the door

Backyard Boulevard discovered each other during COVID, on the boulevard behind their banjo-player's house. What a great surprise - musical neighbours! Mark is a bass player who has headlined the Calgary Folk Festival; Susan and Robert are songwriters with 40 years experience writing musical theatre; James, is a closet jazz banjo climatologist; and Blair is former drummer for a 90's Vancouver rock band now playing hand percussion. Currently, with jobs and families, they’re happiest keeping it local, playing street parties from Oaklands to James Bay, local festivals (eg Filberg, Highland Fling, Spot Prawn Fest, Butcharts Gardens), and folk clubs around the south island.  

Inspired, authentic singing. Evocative, quirky stories. Irresistible groove. Inventive instrumentals. Memorable melodies, often with a we-really-mean-it invitation to sing along. The undeniable magic of musical friends at play! The moment they take the stage, Backyard Boulevard reminds us just how good real folk music can be!!
