The Denman Riff presents: Electro-Riff night featuring Moonbean, Avro, and Nakatomi Freefall.

Moonbean is a queer, Toronto-based electronic duo who lace their live, synth hardware set with lush vocals. Their experimental synth-pop weaves in psychedelia, acid-house, techno, and disco, while their performance style harkens to a punk aesthetic.

Nakatomi Freefall was formed in Courtenay in 2020 by Corey Rokkett, and Marjie Velour, formerly of Porn On Beta. After 13 years of writer's block and life in general, the pair looked at the lockdown as a time to start fresh with their own signature sound in the Synthwave scene.

The night also features Denman Island synthpop, classic new wave / cold wave duo Avro. Featuring Atom Percy and Megan Rose, they released their full length album ‘Futuretroactivism’ in June 2022, and have a new EP in production for release in spring 2024.

Doors at 8pm, music at 8:30, admission is suggested $20, but no one turned away for lack of funds.

It's a night of the battling electronic duos in Nanaimo, featuring Moonbean, Avro, and Rare-Earth Magnet!
