In Episode 4 of On The Scene's Summer Season, Allison Dyjach and Darek Reidel head to AOK Craft Beer + Arcade in Downtown Kitchener to chat with Miranda Campbell and Allison Brown ahead of AOK's Rock Band Night with Eric Moon.
Guests:
Miranda Campbell is the owner of White Tiger Vintage in Downtown Kitchener. She opened the store 12 years ago in 2011 and it has now become a staple for unique items in the Downtown core. Miranda loves focusing on the sustainability of thrifted clothing as well as the value of finding old gems of clothing. She is organizing the Way Cool Vintage Market this weekend on Gaukel St which will host 20+ vintage vendors, music from DJ Good Dr, and a pop up bar from Goldie's Convenience.
Allison Brown's musical rambles have taken her across Canada on several occasions; playing music from atop hay-wagons to festival stages, concert halls to living rooms, campfires to stone amphitheaters, churches and record stores, coffeehouses and honky-tonk saloons to aboard moving passenger rail cars. She performs solo with guitar and voice, but often teams up with musical friends for a variety of unique collaborations. This weekend she is making her performance return to Kitchener with a show at the Yeti Bar alongside Barry James Payne.
Music: Rachel Hickey (High - Live from The Loft studio), Conor Gains (Light Shine In), Allison Brown (Don't Wait Too Long)
