Backstage Lounge

Part of the Vancouver International Writers and Readers Festival 2008.

Put your hands together for this dynamite
ensemble! Four writers with phenomenal
talents beyond putting words on the page.
Paul Quarrington is one of four Canadian lads
in a popular band called Porkbelly Futures, with
songs ... (more)regularly hanging out on the blues and
roots radio charts. MC-singer-actress-beatnikmusicmaker
Kinnie Starr was nominated for a
Juno in 2004. Willy Vlautin, champion of the
dispossessed, is the leader of the alt.country
ensemble Richmond Fontaine. And storyteller
Ivan E. Coyote is no stranger to the magic that
happens when words and music get together.
This is a lineup you’ll never catch the likes of
again in such an intimate space.
For those 19 years and older
