Kyle Bischke Joins Ari Neufeld @ The Breakfast Room
One of the amazing things about Fort St. John, is that I'm always meeting new cool musicians who have recently moved into town! I met Kyle Bischke 2 weeks ago. As a bartender at Tony Roma's, he was asked to perform a few songs at the Pomeroy Christmas Party... After hearing him, and without a second thought, I thought it would be awesome if Kyle would be intereted in opening up for the upcoming Ari Neufeld Show.
So, here's the news:
Kyle's will be performing one of his original tunes, never before heard, tomorrow night - Jan 24th - at The Breakfast Room! He'll be playing a handful of cool covers, and setting the mood for the evenign! Come support Kyle and checkout the amazing music of Okanagan musician, Ari Neufeld.
Tickets in advance are $15 (available online below), or $20 at the door.
The show is available to all ages, and there will be a bar available for 19+. Food will be available and served through Tony Romas resturaunt.
Ari Neufeld at Whole Wheat 'n Honey

An ever growing commitment to understanding the principles in the nature of creativity, Ari has been working at perfecting his crafts both in and out of the public spotlight nearly his entire life. This site is dedicated to exploring both the visual and audio aspects of his creativity. Ari’s latest album “Lost Tapes” is now available!! To begin your journey, choose your point of interest and see how deep the rabbit hole goes.
Ari Neufeld is performing for the very first time in Fort St. John this weekend, and this Saturday he is playing to an incredible listening audience at Whole Wheat 'n Honey Cafe. This is such a great room to see Ari perform that wish everyone can came out and hear the show!

Ari Neufeld at Egan's Pub

Ari Neufeld in Fort St. John
We in the North are surrounded by amazing musicians! In early May, Ari Neufeld from Okanagan will be joining us for a weekend of amazing music and performance!
Ari Neufeld is a self-made one man band, hailing most recently from the Okanagan. He plays guitar, piano, banjo (but usually guitar), while singing and keeping time through an amplified stompbox, with ethnic beads, nuts and bells strapped to his body. His performance covers a variety of genres from folk to pop, to new country, to rhythmic soul, to rock.
Over three decades of global travel and extremely colorful living and work experience, Ari has redefined himself through a sensitive eagerness to explore the world around him and turn his musings into audience participation. This imperative supersedes the stage, where there is an even deeper eagerness to explore creativity in general: Ari has worked as a line and graphic artist, painter, sculptor, plasterer, poet, writer, pyrographer, photographer and chef.
Often Ari's performances are hall-marked by an opportunity to look deep into the knot of an old tree, and discover some tranquil revelation way down in its hollow. From there, it's a laughter-filled experience of rhythm, movement, soaring melody. Not hampered by any singular emotion, his push to explore new ideas while performing ranks with the airs of Bob Dylan, Jeff Buckley, Martin Sexton, Bruce Cockburn.
Ari is performing in two different locations while he in town for two separate experiences:
Friday May 6th - Egan's Pub - 9pm - Free Pub Show
Saturday May 7th - Whole Wheat 'n Honey - 7pm - Theatre Style Cafe Show - $20
Checkout what a few other folks have said about Ari, and why we're so excited about having him in Fort St. John!
