Coliwog is a resource, building space and connection within the electronic music scene here in Manitoba. He’s a creator, collaborator, teacher, and instigator of musical event escapism. He serves across and in-between many crews, organizations, and events including The Demand, Bring Your Love Festival, Skullspace, Sway This Way, Always Dale, Studio on Beat Street (TOR), MI-CASA/Menagerie, MEME, Dusk-til-Dawn, Junction-X, What’s Golden, and Diaspora DJs to list a few.

He is a driven entrepreneur and a lover of satire who thinks critically and hilariously about current events, philosophy, and the broader artistic landscape. His approachable nature encourages others to dabble and to dive-in to the depths of music. Connection with community fuels his creative fire, both as an event organizer and DJ.

While house and electronic music have become his speciality, Coliwog grew up with the Winnipeg Indie music scene, spending his formative years partying it up in fantastic spaces like DIE MACHINE, LOPUB, OZZY’s, and THE PURPLE ROOM. He returns lovingly to peruse new and old inspirations from these musical roots on Friday July 26th at The Beer Can. Expect some laidback sounds, some grunge, some oldies, some funk new and old, maybe some synthwave, definitely some Afro-House grooves, and a random assortment of more!
