MEAVE with Matt and Chris Time

From Hamilton, Ontario, Samantha "Meave" Pearson is a remarkable 26-year-old singer-songwriter who possesses undeniable talent. MEAVE's journey took an unexpected turn during her regular busking sessions in the bustling streets of Niagara Falls. While sitting on a stoop outside the building where the third season of Canada's Got Talent was being recorded, MEAVE's captivating voice caught the attention of passing producers on their lunch break, who instantly recognized her immense potential.

Invited for an impromptu audition by Howie Mandel himself, this set her on an extraordinary path where she secured a coveted spot in the show's grand finale, mesmerizing over 500,000 viewers with her exceptional performance and earning the title of Grand-Finalist (4th position) and a notable "you're a star" from Howie Mandel.

Embracing the attention generated by the show, MEAVE embarked on a journey as an independent artist. With unwavering passion and dedication, she poured her heart and soul into crafting her own original songs. Presently, she already has over ten captivating compositions recorded, each reflecting her genre-agnostic approach to music.

With Special guests Matt and Chris Time

​It will be 20 years ago to the day that Matt and Chris Time released their seminal Saint John album “Family, Families”.

Critics agreed it was “local…music”, calling it “hastily mixed” and “burned on a laptop?”. It remains available at pawn shops to this day.

Actually that’s not true we released that like 19 years ago…and in August.

But can you imagine if it was 20 years TO THE DAY, how cool would that be?

Anyway, we’re older now. Much older. Turns out Matt and Chris can’t outrun Time. Our backs hurt, and we sit down when we play.

Come say hi, hear us play a bunch of new music!
