GALLERY OPENING Haisla with Nasty, Brutish & Short
Friday October 29, 7pm-9pm
Urban Aboriginal Gallery, 456 E. Hastings
During this past summer a landmark mural project was painted on the west wall of the newly-renovated Orwell Hotel. The ground floor of the Orwell was the planning space for the artists and organizers. Inspired by the creative energy of the artists working together, the Vancouver Native Housing Society moved forward to open the Urban Aboriginal Gallery in the same ground floor location. Join the artists to celebrate with music from one of the participating artists, Haisla Collins and her roots acoustic band—Haisla with Nasty, Brutish & Short.  Specializing in blues and ballads with flavours of gospel, jazz and country, Haisla is joined by Lorenzo Watters on lead guitar and mandolin, the Reverend Gabriel Hebert on slide guitar and banjo, and Father Theo on rhythm guitar and twelve-string. That’s urban blues! See you there! Free
