This year’s special guest is Leeroy Stagger, an acclaimed singer-songwriter known for his raw, heartfelt lyrics and a sound that blends rock, folk, and Americana. With a career spanning over two decades, Stagger has released multiple albums and toured internationally, captivating audiences with his storytelling and rich musicality.
Topped off with performances by Daniel’s special guests, these concerts inspire all ages, celebrating life as it blossoms in spring across the nation and resonates at home in Victoria through the wonderful power of live Canadian music.
