Âé¶čAVâs Parks Alive has some local flare on Saturday night (Aug. 20).
Itâs Funk Jam night as four hip-hop/R&B and funk bands take the stage. The closing act, a six-piece band called âThe Free Labelâ has a connection to Âé¶čAV. The drummer of the Toronto-based band is Âé¶čAVâs Jason Martin, who graduated from Âé¶čAV Secondary School.
Martin and The Free Label have an album coming out later this year and just released their new single âBoys Donât Sobâ. Theyâve played at a few notable Canadian music festivals but are coming off of their biggest performance at SXSW in Austin, Texas.
The band has been around Âé¶čAV a few times this month as they also played shows on Aug. 9 and Aug. 17.
The Free Label will be on the Pride Stage at Kerry Park in Âé¶čAV from 9 p.m. to 10:30 p.m. Attendance is free.
