Join us on Saturday, October 3, 2026 as we present A License to Thrill: Bond Burlesque, featuring the exciting sounds of the Dave Babcock Orchestra, vocalist extraordinaire Ariana Whitlow, and House of Hush Burlesque.
For Your Eyes Only! Award-winning Edmonton artist Dave Babcock has earned his reputation as one of Canada’s finest saxophonists, his soulful playing steeped in the living traditions of jazz and blues. Dave will be leading his 14-piece band through arrangements of some of Bond's biggest musical anthems, with vocal powerhouse Ariana Whitlow behind the mic. Add burlesque to the mix, and we've got A License to Thrill!
