Hosted by Matt Gower
Matt Gower has been involved in the Ottawa music community for over two decades. His songwriting incorporates folk, alt-country and old-time music weaved between timeless lyrics and dynamic vocals. Over the years Matt has performed with garage-folk band Capital Grass and the No Men and folk duo Fathom the Sea around the National Capital Region and Western Quebec. Throughout Matt’s musical journeys, a constant thread has held true: nothing carries more weight than connecting with an audience through the power of song.

We provide gender-neutral washrooms. We have one wheelchair accessible washroom. There is no wheelchair ramp.

Once inside, the whole cafe floor is flat, with the exception of our small room to the side, which is a small step down.
