Live music hitting groove at Avalanche

Each week the Jilli Martini House Band hosts the evening, opening with its own set of music.

With a couple of Tuesdays under the belt, and a full house both weeks, things are shaping up nicely for steady live music at the Avalanche Bar & Grill.

Each week the Jilli Martini House Band hosts the evening, opening with its own set of music, followed by a set played by the pre-arranged special guest of the week. The final set can end in an impromptu jam with the guests and house band.

Each week has a fresh sound and style, keeping things interesting for the audience and players alike.

The House Band consists of Jilli Martini (aka Jillian Gathright) on vocals, Doug Biggs on guitar, Andre Forgues on bass and Blair Bentley on drums.

Next week's special guest band on March 6 will be Rokkitdog, a blues/rock band from Campbell River. Rokkitdog is Larry Palmer and The Bear on guitar, Glen Griffiths on bass, Randy McKay on drums and the fabulous Jude deVries on keys and vocals.

The music is free.
