With special guest Lady K. Lady K’s passion for music began as a 4 year old child, playing a paper keyboard and hearing music in her head. After finishing a bachelor of music in education and composition 20 years later, she walked away from the classical world to explore more basstastic realms. Her passion for tropical beats, world rhythms and bass bangers ignites her unbridled enthusiasm, which she spreads effortlessly and relentlessly. It is her goal in life to leave no bootie unshaken. She is based in the Comox Valley and plays regularly all over Vancouver Island.
