About this event

Introducing Halifax’s premier dyslexic non-binary musician. Burry (they/them) blends elements of indie, rock, and pop together to create lyrically-colourful music performed with an unforgettable stage presence. Since 2018, Burry has been performing their set of self-discovery styled songs backed by a group of Halifax-based musicians to a growing fan base in Canada. Burry is an LGBTQ2A+ artist who has dealt with subjects such as mental health and being openly queer in the music industry. They strive to use their platform to amplify voices of marginalized communities in and out of the music industry.
*Youth and children under 19 must be accompanied by a parent or guardian.
