Café Rosé is the musical lovechild of Ben Rose and all the beautiful musicians in Cowtown and around the world he has the pleasure of collaborating with.
Born in the time of covid, Café Rosé is not quite a band yet but if they have to pick a genre (do they have to?) they call it “Country/Soul/Rock&Roll”. If they’re only allowed one they say “Soul”.
7:45 PM– Greg Vardy Band
GVB is a cover band working out of Calgary, AB. Bringing good times and great music to the city and the surrounding area. All the best 80’s, 90’s, and early 2000’s country, rock, and Americana. GVB brings the party!
