KNKX invites listeners to celebrate our 10th Anniversary in Victoria B.C.! We're excited to present an evening with Astrocolor at The Coda on September 12 which will begin with an exclusive live taping of a four-song KNKX studio session hosted by Abe Beeson, followed by a full Astrocolor set in its seated AstroJazz format. Both will take place on the Main Stage, which will be configured for GA seating.
Astrocolor is a four-time nominee at the Western Canadian Music Awards, winning Instrumental Artist of the Year. The band's AstroJazz series (Moonlighting - AstroJazz Vol. 1 and Stargazing - AstroJazz Vol. 2) explores the nexus between experimental jazz and instrumental psychedelia, and has been a regular playlist staple on KNKX since 2023. This will be the first opportunity to hear new songs from the band's forthcoming release performed live.
