Rare Earth Magnet Concert
2024-08-17 19:30 - 21:30 | Yellowhouse Art Centre, 2517 Sturdies Bay Road, Galiano, V0N 1P0
Originally from Greater Sudbury, Zacharie Pelland left the city of nickel in 2016 on a whim to settle in Whitehorse as a touring and session musician. It was there that he met Amber, a multi-instrumentalist and radio producer from Edmonton who became his wife and the co-creator of Rare-Earth Magnet. Confined to their home just outside Whitehorse in late winter 2020 due to the pandemic, Amber and Zacharie recorded Rare-Earth Magnet’s self-titled debut album. Together, they play all the instruments: keyboards, electric guitar, bass, drums and several synthesizers. According to Zach, the aesthetic of the project proudly ranks with the codes of science fiction: spaceships, astronauts and expansive horizons.
This event is being held on the unceded, shared traditional territories of Penelakut, Lamalcha, Hwitslum and other Hul’qumi’num and SENĆOŦEN speaking peoples, Coast Salish Peoples of Galiano, as well as the ceded territories of Tsawwassen First Nation, on what is now known as Galiano Island.
