"Over the past decade, Vancouver Craft Beer Week has evolved from an intimate gathering of beer geeks to a bonafide cultural phenominon.

By combining delicious beer with incredible food, cutting edge arts, music and craft culture, the weeklong event captures the very essence of Vancouver and what it is we all love about our city."

—Rob Mangelsdorf, Editor, The Growler BC

    veryone loves an underdog story, and Black Pontiac remains the most exciting next example. The self proclaimed Kings of the Underworld have spent the last several years slowly but surely developing a cult following throughout the Pacific Northwest; organizing, producing and promoting their own shows, tours and music in the spirit of their DIY upbringing. Despite a lack of label support or industry recognition, streaming numbers continue to rise and shows continue to sell out throughout their native province of British Columbia, as their unique brand of ‘Cage the Elephant meets The Clash’ inspired party rock continues to astound, inspire and occasionally offend wherever they go. With new music on the way, the sky remains the limit, and Black Pontiac is ready to fly.

    Luvlee (Lee Brown) is a British Pop-Punk artist from Stoke-on-Trent residing between Los Angeles, London & Vancouver.

    Lee’s musical style is a perfect reflection of the music he was raised listening to. Bands such as Oasis, Greenday, Paramore, Blink 182 and Blondie all play a huge role in influencing Luvlee’s sound that would be best described as the lovechild of nostalgic 2000’s pop punk and British pop rock.

    In 2021, Lee performed and sold out multiple well known music venues in Los Angeles such as Whisky-a-Go Go and the Viper Room and is extremely excited to finally bring his music to a Canadian stage.
