Reflecting the diversity of our country�s landscape and culture, Anjopa was founded by three singer-songwriters. Andrew Godon�s California roots, John Spooner�s love of Canadiana, and Paul Gatien�s Yukon heritage combine to take audiences on journeys full of surprises: a train ride up Vancouver Island, rafting down the Yukon River, or dallying in Mexico.

Add Blair Mitchell, a percussionist with Celtic roots, and the eclectic harmonicas of Craig Moddle and you have a musical experience unlike any other. With a repertoire of more than 40 original songs, Anjopa has been playing to enthusiastic audiences from Vancouver Island to Alaska.

Our feature act will be preceded by what is arguably Victoria�s best weekly acoustic Open Stage session where musicians from fledglings to professionals can perform a 10 minute set for one of the most welcoming, attentive and participative audiences in town. Aspiring Open Stage performers can sign-up with the VFMS Host between 7:00 and 7:30pm to do a set but should get there early to improve their chances of getting on the evening�s line-up.
