About this event

Tongue on the Post 2023 has an amazing lineup in store for you!

With everything from Throat singing in a brick beehive kiln to witnessing some of the greatest rising artists in 2023, Tongue on the Post 2023 is sure to have you amazed!

We can't wait to be back in the historic venue, Medalta Potteries, with our dear musician friends from across the country as well as all of you here in Medicine Hat! We have missed you all so much!

Monday we kick things off with our signature Supper & Song event at the amazing Rosewood Bistro on North Railway street. Gordie Tentrees and Jaxon Haldane have traveled from the Yukon and Manitoba respectively to share their amazing songs, mind-bending musicianship, and stories for days. This event is $65 and includes your dinner, drinks are extra.

Tuesday we head to Medalta for an intimate experience in the historic brick beehive kilns as the Ladies of the Folk Music Club Board present their original songs and stories. These shows will be limited seating, so get your ticket early to ensure your spot. Connie Jean, Muriel Erick, and Netty Mac will take you on a journey of music from a female perspective in our community. All Kiln shows are $25 each.

Wednesday brings us Jay Bowcott and Derek Hintz in the kiln as they present their newest songs and stories unplugged. Derek Hintz is hot on the heels of his newest release " Tougher than you Know" which has been gaining plenty of airplay on CKUA and many other places. In a rare Medicine Hat appearance, Jay Bowcott returns to share with us as he climbs his way through the industry as a folk artist as well as the frontman for the rock band "Rooks". All Kiln shows are $25 each.

Thursday brings back a special treat from years ago..... Don Hill returns alongside Anne Hill to present an evening of Throat Singing in the Kiln. This event sparked so much of what we do today at TOPFEST that we had to bring these superstars back again!

In this introductory workshop, you will hear and learn how Tibetan monks, Gregorian chanters, and Mongolian overtone singers create powerful healing music. Workshop leader Don Hill will demonstrate and teach the basic techniques of "overtone harmonics," the foundation of much meditative and restorative music. Using bells, gongs, and a 26-string Chinese zither In the unique acoustic space of Medalta's beehive kiln, Don will tune your ear and train your voice. You will gain a new perspective and appreciation of unusual vocal traditions and much other sacred choral music from around the world. And you'll have a lot of fun, too! All Kiln shows are $25 each.

Friday brings us back to the reception gallery at Medalta Potteries for our coveted Singer Songwriter Night where local musicians are given the stage in an effort to promote the amazing talent we have right here at home! Be sure to join us and encourage these talented artists as they begin their journey in the music industry. This event is a free event with a suggestion of a $5 donation to help cover costs. Please do not feel obligated to pay to attend, we wish this to be a barrier-free event for those in our community.

Saturday brings us to the big day!! With a jam-packed schedule and the most bang for your buck, Main day artists will include, Ryan Langlois, Madeleine Rogers, Brett Nelson, Mike Tod, Carter Felker, Don Hill, and many more throughout the day. There will also be a local artisan market as well as a bar running throughout the day.

Saturday Evening brings us to the Headliners event and boy do we have something special for you this year!! 3 special Acts to be exact!!

Misery Mountain Boys make their return to TOPFEST as a highly requested band to return. The Band has had an amazing year of performances and recordings, and they can't wait to share with you all!

Next, up-and-coming Albertan artist TAYLR makes her debut at TOPFEST with a set list that is sure to amaze everyone!! This is certainly an artist to continue watching for the future!!

And to wrap up the evening........Kyle McKearney is celebrating one incredible breakthrough year as Canada’s most award-nominated independent artist across the country in 2022. His debut album “Down-Home” is making waves around the world and has so far accumulated 1.5+ million global streams.
