📢 **Koi Open Mic Announcement** 🎤

Hey Koi Open Mic family,

After much consideration, Jonny, Doug & Erin have decided to take a pause on the open mic nights at Best of Kin. Life has gotten busy for all of us—both personally and professionally—and we want to make sure we're able to bring the best energy and experience to every event. Lately, we haven't been able to give it the time and focus it truly deserves.

We want to send a huge THANK YOU to Best of Kin Brewery for being such an incredible venue and creating such an amazing atmosphere. You've been wonderful people to work with, and we’re so grateful.

We'll miss the incredible community we've built together, sharing space, witnessing such incredible local talent, but rest assured, we’ll be back—somewhere, sometime! Until then, stay creative and keep supporting local establishments and art! 🎶🎨

With love and gratitude,
Jonny, Doug, & Erin ❤️

☀️SUNFEST Saturday☀️

presents: Jordan Matchett & Aj Baragar LIVE at The Attic!

is an east coaster who now calls the west home. Recently finding a niche in country western music, he crafts and sings songs about the human condition in a joyful sugar coated manner.

Coming to the stage from rock, folk and theatre, AJ Baragar is rising through the Alberta music scene as a force to be reckoned with. From his beginnings in thrash metal, he found his passion for writing music which he carried through university and beyond. With his melody-focused indie rock sound, you'll be dancing, weeping, and drowning in manic euphoria all in the same breath.

This Saturday, July 29th @ 6pm
Happy hour until 7pm

Here are the ways that we are ensuring our guests health and safety within our establishment:

1. All staff members will be wearing masks when approaching tables and guests for service, preparing drinks and food, and extreme hand washing measures will be put in place. (We do not think that using gloves will be necessary, as we would have to change them ALL DAY LONG)

2. Hand sanitizer will be provided upon entry, in the bathrooms, and upon request.
