Info
On March 3, 2026 at the Royal Theatre in Victoria, Matt Andersen brings The Hammer & The Rose Tour. Raised on the New Brunswick roots and shaped on North American and European blues stages, he moves with ease between blues, folk, soul and roots rock. Voice upfront, guitar close, he writes from everyday stories and wide-open landscapes, shifting from hushed ballads to firmer, riff-led songs. The set leans into his catalogue — from Second Time Around and Coal Mining Blues to Weightless, Honest Man, Halfway Home by Morning and The Big Bottle of Joy — with arrangements that leave room for dynamics and unforced intensity.
Sharing the bill, Calgary’s Mariel Buckley carries the alt-country thread toward darker corners of Americana. Her songs sit in mid to slow tempos, guided by a deep, steady voice and guitars that lean into grain and reverb. Between Driving in the Dark (2018) and Everywhere I Used To Be (2022), she tracks the road, family ties and the uneasy spaces where identity shifts. On stage, she keeps the focus on narrative and texture, building a mood that connects country lineage to a more independent, modern edge.
