With special curation by The Music Mile, containR Fest presents Natalie Inga. Natalie and her band create a dynamic live experience that moves seamlessly between intimacy and intensity, drawing listeners in with rich vocals and thoughtful, mood-driven arrangements.
With both power and vulnerability, Natalie explores the struggles of self-awareness in a cynical world. This YYC Music Award-nominated songwriter draws on elements of R&B, Rock, and Pop, allowing her to express herself beyond the limits of traditional Folk music.
 

Please join us at the launch party to celebrate the release of Rhonda Webster’s debut book Please Stay with Me! This visually striking book is illustrated by Webster’s daughter-in-law and is a portrait of bipolar disorder, told from the dual perspectives of mother and daughter as they walk side-by-side through this devastating illness.
