SUMMARY:The East Pointers - SOLD OUT
DESCRIPTION:JUNO Award-winning band\, The East Pointers\, are innovators within the ever-evolving world of modern folk. They craft a joy-conjuring\, dancefloor-shaking\, roof-rattling fusion of folk\, pop\, and dance music. In the studio\, their four records have captured the furious energy of their live shows\, adding to the legacy of East Coast folk while lighting a path for a new generation of music lovers.  \nFull Bio: \nJUNO Award-winners The East Pointers\, Tim Chaisson (vocals/fiddle/percussion)and Jake Charron (guitar/keyboards)\, are innovators within the ever-evolving genre of modern folk\, crafting a joy-conjuring\, dancefloor-shaking\, roof-rattling fusion of folk\, pop\, and dance music. In the studio\, four records have captured the furious energy of their live shows\, adding to the legacy of East Coast folk while lighting a path for a new generation of music lovers. \n  \nAlready internationally acknowledged as musical trailblazers\, on their newest offering\, Schoonertown\, released January 23\, 2026\, The East Pointers have come home. Equal parts origin story and statement of craft\, Schoonertown captures the moments that shaped their youth: nights out with the boys\, the dizzy romance of first love\, sprawling families and small towns\, two weeks on in a bleak winter\, kitchen parties and vinyl records and tape decks\, every mistake\, every late night\, every long drive\, beer and cigarettes and fights\, laughing until you can’t breathe\, ambition rising like a king tide\, the piss and vinegar of youth\, the sun emerging so bright over the horizon you have to shield your eyes–the devastation and exhilaration of all of it. \n  \nSince their debut album\, Secret Victory\, took home the 2017 JUNO Award for Traditional Album of the Year\, The East Pointers have cemented their place as a defining voice in contemporary folk music. Their music\, streamed millions of times over each month\, has been featured on television\, film\, and broadcast\, and their acoustic performances on social media have been shared by the likes of Ed Sheeran and Mumford & Sons. They regularly light up stages across Australia\, Japan\, the UK\, Europe\, Mexico\, New Zealand\, the USA\, and Canada\, and each fall they bring that energy back home to Prince Edward Island\, where they host Goolaholla!\, a festival celebrating music\, community\, and the spirit of the East Coast.
