Come down to the Truck Stop Diner for delicious eats, cold Red Truck Beer, and live music by MELA & The Sensational Sidekick!Melanie Dekker with guitarist Allan Rodger: Singer-songwriter Melanie Dekker lights up the stage with her warm wit, radiant presence, and a voice as smooth as chocolate. Blending folk-pop charm with country-rock edge, she captivates audiences through heartfelt songs, dynamic percussive guitar work, and the occasional touching story that she shares along the way. Her musical journey spans radio hits, film soundtracks, sold-out tours, and collaborations with icons including Bryan Adams, Chaka Khan, and Faith Hill—testament to her passion, versatility, and unmistakable style.
Her “sensational sidekick,” Allan Rodger, is one of Vancouver’s busiest music producers and the multi-instrumental force behind Flexitone Studios (formerly Crosstown Studios). His guitar sound—shaped by influences like Jimi Hendrix and Mark Knopfler—adds colour, texture, and a distinctive edge to the duo’s performances. Together, they create a musical landscape all their own. www.melaniedekker.com
Join us for a thrilling, acoustic-driven Friday evening at Red Truck Brewery —with the first hour perfectly suited for Happy Hour.
