Description

Pocologan Productions, in partnership with the Sussex Drive-In and John Law Corporation, is hosting Music and Comedy at the Drive-In, the first-in-Canada live music event of its kind. This unique format will allow music fans to enjoy a community-oriented outdoor live music event for the first time since the introduction of COVID-19 isolation measures.

All profits will be donated to the Rotary Club of Sussex so they can continue to provide growth and development opportunities for the people of Sussex, NB.

The gates will open at 8PM and the show starts at dusk.

Who's Playing?

The Divorcees

For over a decade, Moncton New Brunswicks' The Divorcees have been known nationwide as one of Canada's leading keepers of the outlaw country flame. Winners of two East Coast Music Awards, the band's brand of no-nonsense, blue-collar americana with a Canadian edge has won over fans and peers alike from coast to coast.

James Mullinger

James Mullinger was one of the UK’s top comedians and the Comedy Editor for GQ magazine when he moved to Canada six years ago. Since his arrival, he has taken the country by storm. Sold out shows across the country, appearances on CBC’s The Debaters, movies, TV shows, festivals, awards, stand up specials – he’s done it all.

An award-winning writer, comedian and filmmaker, he spent 15 years in a senior position at British GQ magazine, interviewing everyone from Jerry Seinfeld and Paul Rudd to Rachel Weisz and Scarlett Johansson and launching the magazine’s digital division. In April 2016 and 2018, James sold out Harbour Station Arena in New Brunswick, outselling both Jerry Seinfeld and Guns N Roses at the same venue.

His latest stand up special, Almost Canadian, shot straight to #1 on the iTunes charts and was nominated for a Canadian Comedy Award for Best Taped Live Performance. It is available to watch internationally on Amazon Prime Video.

In June 2017 he launched Atlantic Canada's first ever international magazine, [EDIT] - an award-winning premium media brand devoted to celebrating business leaders and creatives doing the unexpected while expanding Atlantic Canada’s global reach.

James has also raised more than $150,000 for Atlantic Canadian charities. He is a much sought after corporate clean comedian and keynote speaker internationally on the subjects of marketing, media and uplifting positivity celebrating life, work and play in Canada.

Jamie Comeau & the Crooked Teeth

Jamie Comeau & the Crooked Teeth is a 4-piece alternative rock/folk group with blue grass inspirations based in Saint John, NB. These 2017 Rising Star winners are gaining serious momentum, and since March 2018, they have taken themselves on the road through the Maritime’s everywhere from Nova Scotia to Prince Edward Island. Their personality and stage presence bring forth a sound that is that is somehow both unfamiliar and familiar to the audiences they meet.

FAQ

How Will it Work?

The Sussex Drive-In has capacity for 300 cars to view video on a large 4-storey screen. Live bands will perform on the stage that will be placed in front of the screen. A multi-camera set-up will feed live performance footage onto the screen so everyone can see the action in a social-distancing-friendly manner.

How will I enjoy the show from my car?

We’re bringing in a full video crew to capture the performances for projection onto the big screen. The audio from the show will be transmitted to your car using the drive-in’s FM transmitter - a classic drive-in experience!

Will there be concessions for sale?

Yes, there will be a canteen selling snacks and non-alcoholic drinks.

Will washrooms be available?

Yep! enhanced cleaning procedures will be in place.

How can I practice safe social distancing?

In New Brunswick's current state of reopening you are required to stay in your vehicle, except to use the washroom or to buy concessions. For the most up-to-date physical distancing guidelines, visit gnb.ca/coronavirus.

Are there age restrictions?

Nope! This is an all-ages, family-friendly show. Come one, come all!

Can I stay overnight?

You sure can! The koa sussex campground is right next door. Make your reservation here.
