Scalawag at the Wheelhouse - Sehnsucht Album Release Tour
2023-06-24 20:00 - 23:30 | Wheelhouse Brewing, 217 1st Ave East, Prince Rupert, Canada
Join Scalawag as they tour in support of their sophomore album “Sehnsucht,” released on June 1st!
The Vancouver based multi-instrumentalist singer-songwriter Scalawag will be playing songs off the album with a full band, and their usual quirky stage banter at the Wheelhouse starting at 8pm.
A little about the album:
Sehnsucht is German for Nostalgia, longing, or yearning. More specifically, a deep unsettled longing for something ‘else.’ An unapologetically melancholic indie-folk album born straight from the heartfelt reflections of Singer- Songwriter Teo Saefkow’s experiences with the concept of Sehnsucht, and influenced by the folky- atmospheric confessional style of artists like Lucy Dacus and Gregory Alan Isakov. Scalawag’s sophomore album Sehnsucht deals with the multi- disciplinary artist’s attempt at finding meaning within relation. From the opening track’s examination of a doomed relationship, to obsession with the thought of a loved one deciding never to return home in the album’s fourth track.

A little about the show:
Show starts at 8pm
$10 at the door

About the Comedians
Dino Archie
Dino Archie is a stand-up Comedian, writer and occasional actor born in America – in Fresno, CA. He now makes Vancouver, BC his home base. Dino Archie made his late-night debut on Jimmy Kimmel Live! and was featured on Adam Devine’s House Party. He was a New Face at the Just For Laughs Festival in Montreal and was the winner of the 36th Annual Seattle International Comedy Competition. He has released four comedy albums including his first one-hour special self-produced and self-released in the pandemic Summer of 2020!
Chris Griffin
Chris Griffin is one of comedy’s most dynamic storytellers. After winning his regional round of the Great Canadian Laugh Off during his first year of comedy, Chris did something crazy. He quit his full time job, sold his house and hit stages across North America doing what he loves best – drinking and making people laugh. It was a gamble that has paid off. His move to Vancouver has brought a ton of success for Griffin, including winning 1st place in Vancouver’s Yuk Yuk’s Competition, being one of the only Canadian comics to ever make the finals of the prestigious San Francisco International Comedy Competition, performing every year at the Just For Laughs Northwest Festival and sharing the stage with notable comics such as Norm Macdonald, Doug Stanhope, Tom Papa, Ari Shaffir and Bert Kreischer. 2018 is already off to a great start as Griffin was nominated three times and took home one award in the inaugural Vancouver Comedy Awards.
