Ships & Gigs evening sets sail July 18

Stonewell Farm is celebrating summer with an unforgettable three-act musical evening that will also have its audience in stitches.

Hank Pine, Shirley Gnome and The ReViberators perform in the Ships & Gigs concert at the Lee’s Hill venue on Friday, July 18.

Grace Jordan of Stonewell Farm encountered the ensemble at the Otherworld Festival on Vancouver Island this spring.

“They were by far the best thing we saw there: absolutely unique, incredible sound and original music and hysterical,” she said.

“Pine is a queer Canadian multi-instrumentalist whose eclectic blend of punk, rock, dark cabaret, hip-hop, disco and theatrical performance has made him a standout in the alternative scene,” promotional material explains. “Best known for his collaboration with Lily Fawn, his music fuses storytelling, elaborate costumes and raw energy.”

Gnome is a Juno-nominated cabaret-comedy-clown chanteuse who blends satirical country, rock and folk songs with dark pop parodies.

“Known for her clever, subversive lyrics and captivating vocals, she has garnered rave reviews and awards across five countries.”

The ReViberators are a Vancouver “surf rock” group featuring Noah Walker on guitar and Jodie Ponto on drums — also known as Kitty and the Rooster.

Organic treats by Mama G’s Eatery and a full bar will be available. Fun begins at 6:30 p.m.

Tickets are on sale through Eventbrite. The farm is located at 1852 Fulford-Ganges Rd.
