Sam Casey, Double Experience & The Satisfactory

Sam Casey is bottled chaos. Backed by The Middle Children, her live shows blur the line between confession and catharsis. She delivers emotionally charged performances fueled by authenticity, sharp humour and a fearless stage presence.

Sam was inspired by artists like The Beaches and Alanis Morissette but is carving out a voice that’s unmistakably her own. Her songs explore the dizzying highs and crushing lows of growing up, falling apart, and finding the strength to rebuild.

For the first time, Sam will be headlining an all ages show alongside Double Experience from Ottawa and The Satisfactory from Montreal. This show is presented by the Queen West BIA with all proceeds benefitting MusiCounts.

Attendance is open to all ages. The bar will be open for those ages 19+ with government ID.

Double Experience have shared a life-long quest to create music that feels as diverse and vital as a packed arcade. Band members Ian Nichols (vocals) and Brock Tinsley (guitar) have played hundreds of concerts across 17 countries. In 2025, the Ottawa based alt-rockers took home "Album of the Year" at the Capital Music Awards.

The Satisfactory are a Montreal-based rock 'n' roll band. They are here to get the ground shaking with their blend of vintage styles and modern sensibilities. Formed in 2023 by frontman and Toronto native Salvador Vaughan, they have gained a reputation for being one of the tightest, most energetic bands on the scene. Satisfaction is guaranteed.

MusiCounts is Canada's music education charity associated with CARAS and the JUNO Awards. MusiCounts' vision is to ensure that all youth in Canada have access to music education. This vision is realized through grant programs that invest directly into schools and communities that put musical instruments into the hands of kids who need them the most.
