SUMMARY:2nd Fridays: Meghan Gilhespy\, Sam Wilson\, Regan Mowery
DESCRIPTION:Friday\, November 14th\, 2025\n7:00 – 11:30pm EST\nPWYC \n2nd Fridays: Meghan Gilhespy\, Sam Wilson\, Regan Mowery\nLive music\, cheap booze\, and a little bit of beautiful\, glorious chaos. Halfway between a recital and a party. Be there. \n2nd Fridays is a series that builds community\, where artists can take risks in a supportive environment and where we strip the stuffiness out of the concert hall and turn it into the city’s most interesting living room. Less a concert; more a house party\, where the bands just happen to be a collection of the most talented and adventurous players in the country. \nThis time\, we’re unleashing three impressive woman in one night: Modern jazz and experimental vocalist Meghan Gilhespy\, improvisational finger-style guitarist Sam Wilson & exploratory jazz drummer Regan Mowery. \nWitness beautiful\, intelligent\, and dangerous minds at play. The bar is open. The rules are set aside (except for the fire code- we can’t do anything about that)\, and any donations you make will go directly to the performers. The future of Canadian music is being forged at the CMC\, just after hours this time. \nNo gods. No masters. Only sound.
