The HIP Experience
2024-09-14 21:00 | Buffalo Iron Works, 49 Illinois St, Buffalo, NY, 14203, United States
The HIP Experience
The HIP Experience was formed in 2017 shortly after the passing of Gord Downie, singer of the Tragically Hip in October of that year. The band was originally put together for a memorial tribute concert to the Canadian Icon. The first show at Toronto’s Rockpile in November of that year went over incredibly well. Then there were calls for the band to play some more shows and so it continued with one goal in mind, to establish the Nation’s most authentic Tragically Hip show.
Frontman Derek Lathrop leads a group of Toronto’s finest players; Dave Deveaux on lead guitar/vocals, Albert Carraro on rhythm guitar/vocals, Doug Elash on bass/vocals and Rob Wells on drums. Since forming in 2017 the band has wowed audiences from coast to coast. They were one of the first bands to perform a hotel concert during the Lockdowns with concert promoters Hotels Live. The Hip Experience is a crowd favourite at festivals with their high energy delivery of the Tragically Hips music. The bands performances capture the spirit of the Hip with great attention to detail and the nuances of the music.
Together, this band realized what decades of experience can accomplish. Often playing the songs in chronological order, the HIP Experience has been travelling Canada spreading the gospel of one of the Nation’s ageless prophets and voice for indigenous people’s, Gord Downie.

Pile w/ Oceanator

Pile w/ Oceanator
Pile
“I want to do what makes me feel like a kid: experimenting, having fun, and trying to discover new things about this work,” says Pile’s Rick Maguire about All Fiction. It’s his band’s eighth record, and one that finds the ambitious group assembling its most texturally complex material yet—despite the fraught inspiration underscoring its restive lyrics.
Alongside the blistering drums and scorched-earth riffs that first galvanized Pile’s dedicated fanbase, the band has incorporated elegiac strings, mystifying vocal corrosions, and haunting synths. From the creeping fear of cinematic opener “It Comes Closer” to the euphorically ascending keys on ego-shattering closer “Neon Gray,” All Fiction is an ornate, carefully paced study on the subjectivity of perception, the data-shaping despotism of big tech, and the connections between anxiety and death. In its most vital moments, it’s also a resolute recommitment to the restorative significance of art and imagination.
For fifteen years, Pile’s evolving take on rock has earned the group one oft-repeated superlative: “your favorite band’s favorite band.” Ceaseless touring took its members from Boston’s basement circuit to international festivals, hitting loftier technical apexes with each new record. Maguire—the fastidious composer, evocative guitarist, and potent voice behind the solo-turned-punk project—gives musical body to his interior world in scream-along-able lyrics that skew surreal.
Drummer Kris Kuss’s time- defying performances, layered over gnarled basslines, have garnered widespread acclaim. 2019’s Green and Gray took Pile’s thunderous noise to more intricate realms, thanks to new recruit Alex Molini’s work on bass and keyboards, and Chappy Hull’s dextrous interplay on second guitar. That record drew praise for its political directness and instrumental ferocity, but Pile’s seventh album was almost a wholly different endeavor—one on which Maguire would favor piano.

Chairs and seating will be available for you to plant yourself wherever you’d like inside the greenhouses. This “middle of the week” break is a perfect way to unwind and retreat from reality. These evenings are intended to provide a quiet and non-disruptive environment recommended for ages 16 and up.

About the Artists
RNSM, ran·som /ˈransəm — A collaboration of boundless creativity and shared purpose.
Breaking Boundaries, Embracing Unity, Shaping the Future.
The Collective Journey
RNSM isn’t just a band; it’s a thriving community of artists, dancers, photographers, producers, sound engineers, and dreamers. Our core, a dynamic ensemble of two to eight musicians, embarks on a mission to dissolve the boundaries between genres and discard the labels that confine music. Prepare to be transported into a realm where traditional rhythms morph into something entirely new. Here, universal themes transcend language barriers, and the passion between friends from diverse backgrounds, cultures, and influences ignites a musical revolution. We humbly invite you to join us on this sacred search for something greater than convention, a journey that unfolds with every note, every performance, and every one of us.
Representing Diversity
RNSM represents more than just a place; it embodies the spirit of unity that transcends geographical borders. From Buffalo to Puerto Rico, and every corner of this planet, we are a symbol of the collective yearning to break free from the ordinary and strive for our deepest aspirations. Our music signifies the sanctity of artistic expression, encouraging all to explore it with abandon. We stand with those who possess open minds and open hearts, firm believers in the transformative power of music, capable of touching even the most closed hearts and minds. We represent the power of us.
A Vision for Tomorrow
Each of us carries a unique past, a tapestry of experiences woven through different bands, projects, and global stages. Today, we collectively cast our gaze toward the future. In a world that our predecessors could scarcely have imagined, we hunger for the essence of humanity that transcends the machine. RNSM’s purpose is to not only preserve this essence but to nurture and expand it. We will create, drawing upon the rich tapestry of our pasts to craft a narrative for the future through our music. With unwavering honesty, we honor our audience, working tirelessly to grow alongside them every day. Our measure of success isn’t found in monetary gains or streaming numbers but in the profound gratitude that these metrics symbolize—real people embarking on a genuine journey with us. It all begins with you, right here and now.
Join us in rewriting the story of music, breaking boundaries, embracing unity, and shaping a brighter future together. RNSM – where the journey is the destination.
