Friday Nite Live - Addison Wall

The Carrot Friday Nite Live presents Addison Wall – April 4

🎶 Live music starts at 7:00 pm | $10 Cover | All Ages 🎶

Addison Wall is a retrospective artist who blends the sounds of folk, swing, and blues music of the past. He is equally influenced by Laurel Canyon artists such as Jackson Browne or Randy Newman as he is by swing-era musicians like Django Reinhart and Duke Ellington. As a songwriter, his lyrics span from heartfelt folk tales about facing the world as a young man to jump tunes about escaping ominous woodland creatures. Addison has made his way onto many singer-songwriter lineups at Edmonton arts festivals and has been regularly sharing his songs through the café scene as well. He is currently working on his debut EP titled “Somewhere in Between” which is set to release in the fall of 2025. Outside of his solo act, Addison fronts the swing band “The Sour Keys” and is a member of the shoegaze/folk rock trio called “Magpie Mill.”

Friday Nite Live - Loud In The Pines

The Carrot Friday Nite Live presents Loud In The Pines – April 11

🎶 Live music starts at 7:00 pm | $10 Cover | All Ages 🎶

Loud in the Pines is an Edmonton-based indie-folk duo whose songs will transport you from the wide open prairies to the forests and cliffs they dream about. Musicians Spencer Taubner (vocals, guitar) and Kelin Flanagan (vocals, keys) deliver bittersweet, emotional music with seamless vocal harmonies and layered sounds. With a focus on thoughtful storytelling in cinematic settings, their approach to songwriting is heart-forward (and, often, tree-forward). In June 2023, Loud in the Pines released their first EP, bitter bright, recorded in their home studio. Their first full-length record, supported by the Edmonton Arts Council, is slated for release in May 2025. It explores intimate stories of place, community, and connection in soaring full-band arrangements.

I have been organizing a fundraising event at the Carrot for at least a decade (except covid years). I have known Christy for a long time, and always express my admiration for what she has been able to achieve on Alberta Avenue. This is not really a formal gig. It is more like a jam session between my family and friends.

Deep Freeze: A Winter Byzantine Festival

Join us for the 18th annual Deep Freeze Festival!

The magic of Deep Freeze Festival is casting a spell on winter this January 18 and 19, 2025! Step into Alberta Avenue District for the Deep Freeze and embrace the spirit of "Barnyard Blitz!" Dive into Alberta’s agricultural roots with a community celebration like no other.

Deep Freeze Festival is proud to continue celebrating Ukrainian, French Canadian, Franco African, Indigenous (Métis, Inuit, Cree), Latin American and Asian cultures, which are all deeply woven into the fabric of Alberta Avenue District. As you wander through the festival, discover artistic creations, a homestead village, and musical celebrations that warm your heart and palette with music, art, and tasty delights. Take a trek through Pipon Village by trying on a pair of snow shoes, and sit around an open fire for bannock, mint tea, and cultural teachings. When you’re ready for a break from the great outdoors, follow the jovial sounds of a Ukrainian dance troupe to our Hearth Stage in the Alberta Avenue Community League.

Come celebrate the Olde New Year with light installations, ice sculptures, cultural stories, street hockey and our famous annual Deep Freezer races and other winter artistic panache. 

This winter experience is only possible because of our hard-working team of staff and volunteers giving countless hours to our community and the continued support of the community and local businesses. Thank you to all our sponsors and partners for supporting Deep Freeze!
