Mirian Kay

“I’m always looking to invite others into my story.”

Mirian Kay is a Syrian/Jordanian-Canadian singer-songwriter and guitarist. She loves to tip her hat to music as a community-building tool. Not only is music-making a collaborative effort, but singing at its most elemental—words and melodies—is a means of joining people, experiences and journeys. Everyone has stories to share, Mirian notes, and artistic expression makes communication that much more pleasurable. Mirian Kay fuses genres such as Jazz, Pop, R&B, Folk, Electronic, Reggae and World music together to form her unique sound.

“I am never afraid of making mistakes and falling flat on my face, because that’s how the learning begins and when the magic happens.”

“Mirian Kay’s genre, her voice and talent alone makes her a real treat to watch.” -Live In Limbo 

“It was surprising to see how easily Kay moved around the stage, while strumming her acoustic. And when she put it down, you couldn’t look away from her dancing on stage.”      -The Scene Magazine

Performer Profile: Sean Dineley

image
Sean Dineley is a Toronto-based singer-songwriter who draws inspiration from a wide variety of musical sources. Sean tends to compose and arrange pieces not easily categorized into one particular genre. His aim is to write music that is experimental yet catchy, raw yet ethereal, and traditional yet entirely unexpected. His lyrics revolve primarily around existential crises in the context of everyday life.

Sean often performs in a full band format as “Earthcreeper.” Earthcreeper released their eponymous debut album in 2015, which is available for free download at earthcreeper.bandcamp.com.

At Seasonal Activities, v.ii, Sean will be performing a selection of solo acoustic renditions of album tracks as well as newly written pieces.

Imagination is Tangible

Storytelling. Magical Realism. About interpreting the world around us as adults with childish minds. Focusing mostly on the element of recreating our life and choosing to reconstruct it and how in doing so this affects our actual life.

Evan Harkai
Carpenter with a love of storytelling. Evan’s work has been performed in his head for decades. His writing is a constant evolutionary exploration to understand his childhood psyche. As a mask maker (www.maskmakerto.com) he’ll be creating masks for Outside The March’s production of Mr. Burns. Evan recently directed The Anger in Ernest and Ernestine at the Sidemart Theatrical Grocery (Off the Grid & Coffeehouse Theatre).
