Music in the Dark Beach Dance Party, featuring Stubbs and the and Paris Pick and the Pricks
August 7 @ 7:30 pm - 10:00 pm
$10
The Trail & District Arts Council is excited to present our new Friday night Music in the Dark Beach Dance Party, featuring Stubbs and the and Paris Pick and the Pricks on August 7 from 7:30 to 10 pm.
The party starts at 7:30 pm with Paris Pick, affectionately dubbed the ‘Yacht-Pop Princess’, backed by her sequin-clad Pricks!
Originally hailing from Whitehorse, and now smooth-sailing her way back into the stunning landscapes of British Columbia, Paris’ unmistakable voice, fearless fashion, and catalogue full of shimmering songs about life, love, growth, and heartache, blend crunchy-cute guitar with breezy mid-’70s vocal melodies and hooks that leave audiences swooning long after the show is over.
Over the past decade, Pick has toured extensively and has performed at acclaimed showcases such as BreakOut West, Liverpool Sound City (UK), POP Montreal, Focus Wales (UK) and as of 2026, Tallinn Music Week (EU). In her career so far, Pick has opened for Canadian artists such as Yukon Blonde, Apollo Suns, Brass Camel, Jennifer Castle and Wax Mannequin.
In August 2025, Pick was featured on Exclaim!’s NEW FAVES: Hottest Canadian Artists You Need to Hear Right Now list. Previously, in 2022, Pick earned a spot in CBC Music’s Toyota Searchlight: Top 100 Artists list.
Stubbs and the’s shows are spontaneous fun for the whole family.
Rooted in Rossland, this 5-piece started playing crowd-pleasing covers before discovering their independent original and theatrical music. With lyrics in 10 different languages, and a track-list that defies labelling under traditional genres, the audience can’t help but join in the fun!
Stubbs and The is driven to push the limits of what you like in music, with elements that mix silliness with genuine authenticity. There are no rules; Stubbs and The want to show you what explorative music can sound like!
