Vancouver Unfiltered: Poetry and Live Music at the Glimmer Event

Poetry sets, a live band, and an improvisational jam — we caught the Glimmer event featuring Adonis Critter King and Bradon Wint.

Vancouver Unfiltered

This episode brings fun question interviews about Vancouver after guests enjoyed poetry sets with a live band, ending in a collaborative performance and improvisational jam. Featuring Adonis Critter King, Bradon Wint & Fanny Kearse, with special musical guests Hayley Sullivan McInerney, Josh Eastman, Kinfolk Nation, and more.

Poetry-and-music crossover nights like Glimmer are some of the harder-to-categorize events we cover — not quite a concert, not quite a reading, but exactly the kind of genre-blurring creative gathering that makes Vancouver’s arts scene worth paying attention to.

Full episode is above.
