Wyper & Parker (round 2) + Cambie Happy Hour
Details
Wyper & Parker was a fun time when they played the Cambie this past June, so here's a chance to see (and dance to) them again. The Wyper half is Josh Wyper, who's also the Cambie's general manager - and is often behind the bar or on the floor Sunday nights.
They've played at Gastown's Guilt and Co. regularly in the past. This video is seven years old and includes an extra guitar player but will give you the gist.
From the band's promo blurb: "....close your eyes and feel the energy, heart and soul of a R&B-infused rock band giving you everything they've got.
A danceable, driving rhythm section, wailing bluesy guitars, and a singer who sounds like Rod Stewart and Joe Cocker's secret lovechild."
Our reservation is for 6pm - so as to give us time to chat before the music starts. Given that it's the long weekend, I've reserved just one table.
The music goes from 7 to 10 pm, but you might wish to leave earlier.
You can see the Cambie's budget-friendly happy hour menu (till 9pm) here. No cover.
If you like local history, here's a great article about the history of The Cambie Pub.
