Favourite band as a teenager:
Not necessarily a band, but I loved Avril Lavigne growing up, and my friends and I would listen to Hedley
Favourite band now:
Stoplight Observations has been creating really groovy music lately.

Flightless Bird, American Mouth – Iron & Wine
No matter where I am or what mood I am in this is always a song I find I let myself get lost in.

Favourite Local Artist?
I would have to say Kate Stevens is my favourite local artist at this time.
Favourite Local Musician?
I have to give “Taken By Sanity” this one. Especially after the incredible year they have had.
Nose Hill or Fish Creek?
Fish Creek. You can be in the middle of the city and somehow feel like you are out In Kananaskis all of a sudden.
Favourite Street?
I don’t necessarily have a favourite street, but I love being anywhere near the water, so anywhere along the river and I am happy.
Favourite Local Restaurant?
It is not a restaurant, but I really enjoy BAKED. They are a local bakery that makes gluten-free (and vegan) protein doughnuts. Since I have Celiac Disease, I find it hard to trust places that aren’t dedicated gluten-free and so I find myself not eating out often.
Favourite Local Music Venue?
Only living here a few years and COVID taking over 1.5 of them I haven’t gotten to explore all the hidden gems this city has to offer, but I would have to say The Palace has been my favourite place to see music at so far.
