Doors: 7PM
Close: 10PM

Outline: Throwdown Thursday is The Duke’s monthly showcase featuring Victoria’s favorite bands with new and upcoming acts. Come on down and support local music!
Poppa Don Gernie: Poppa Don Gernie plays certified bluegrass bangers with Americana inspiration. A multi-instrumental unit, with kazoos, banjos, mandolins and more, Poppa Don Gernie wants to take you on a foot-stomping journey, so get those hands clapping, and get ready for a knee slapping night of ass-kicking acoustic action.
Élise Leblanc: A poet at heart, Canadian singer-songwriter Élise LeBlanc (She/They) is inspired by the romance of wild things. Heavily influenced by classic country, Appalachia, and western swing- her songs explore queer desire, betrayal, hope, and nature lore. Her gentle twang and rich, expressive vibrato nods to classic crooners Patsy Cline and Peggy Lee.
Her 2024 record “The Fiddle & The Fire” – produced by Leeroy Stagger (Canadian Folk Music Award-Winner whose roster includes: Corb Lund, Joel Plaskett, Mariel Buckley), was listed in the top 10 “Best Country Records on Bandcamp” review in 11/2023 and featured in a CBC Radio-Canada interview on “Culture et Confiture”.

Low Boys:
Post-hardcore from Victoria, BC. Low Boys’ melodic bass lines, pummeling drums, chiming riffs, and full-throated bellowing mix together into a searing, soaring, scabrous, serrated death blues. Take two parts rain-swept 90s Pacific Northwest indie (Modest Mouse, Unwound, Lync), one-part late 70s post-punk (Pere Ubu, Talking Heads), add a dash of misanthropy (Jesus Lizard, Afghan Whigs), stir aggressively.
OddSum:
Odd-Rock Three piece from Victoria blending genres into an audio milkshake.
