Iconic pop weirdo and indie-cult favourite SPOOKEY RUBEN brings acoustic versions of songs to The Cameron House. Opening up is alt-folk project Belfountain.
SPOOKEY RUBEN is the iconic pop weirdo and indie-cult favourite that stunned the 'Alternative' music scene with his hyper-inventive kaleidoscopic debut album "Modes of Transportation Vol. 1ā - music critics praising it as the 'Pet Sounds of the 90sā. The album gained lots of airtime on Muchmusic and MTV, followed by successes in Japan and Europe. A Canadian artist of many hats ā some may remember him from his early days in the progressive thrash band TRANSILIENCE, his off-the-wall art shows OR from his self-directed eye-popping 'Dizzy Playground' television series (exclaim!/Aux TV) featuring guest musicians such as Feist, Melissa Auf Der Maur and Voivod ā has been cited as an influence by a panoply of musical visionaries including Owen Pallett (Arcade Fire), Esthero and Chilly Gonzales.
Belfountain is the new alt-folk project from JUNO Award-winning producer, singer/songwriter and multi-instrumentalist, Chris Graham (The Framework, CANVAS, Tia Brazda).
