IT WAS A SOLD-OUT SHOW! — On August 16, 2025, Shred Kelly, Fernie, BC’s folk-rock dynamos, brought their electrifying “stoke folk” energy to The Brewers Village in Kenora, Ontario, Canada and absolutely set the outdoor venue ablaze! The night was a high-octane celebration of music and good vibes, with the band Tim Newton, Kenora’s very own — Sage McBride, Ty West and Ryan Mildenberger unleashing a torrent of foot-stomping anthems and heartfelt ballads that had the crowd jumping and dancing under the sunset. Joined by special guests Missy Jacobson and local talent Jackson Klippenstein, Shred Kelly turned the Brewers Village into a pulsating party hub, their infectious riffs and soaring vocals echoing through the Kenora night. Fans went wild for tracks like “For What It’s Worth”, “I Hate Work” and “Blissfully Unaware”. The band’s raw passion and mountain-born spirit transformed the evening into an unforgettable summer spectacle. With banjo-strumming, craft brews flowing and the crowd roaring, it was a night that proved why Shred Kelly is a must-see live act in Kenora!
