UK CALLING
Canada's Alternative 80's Show
FRIDAY, SEPTEMBER 18: WATERLOO — FOR THE KIDS WITH MIXTAPES & DOCS.
Discover why UK Calling has become one of Ontario’s fastest-growing live music events.
Every UK Calling show in 2026 has sold out. Now, the band brings its full-force New Wave night to Waterloo for an evening built on sweat, swagger, and the sound that defined a generation.
All live. No wigs. No backing tracks. No Bon Jovi.
If you grew up blasting CFNY, flipping vinyl at Sam the Record Man, or dancing under strobe lights in a pair of Docs — this one’s for you.
Expect the essential UK anthems: The Cure. The Clash. Joy Division. Tears for Fears. The Specials. Simple Minds. Madness.
Led by the magnetic Peter James Fox, UK Calling delivers the sound and spirit of 1980s Britain with grit, energy, and zero shortcuts.
This isn’t nostalgia. It’s a New Wave resurgence. If you’re coming, don’t wait.
JERU THE DAMAJA
Canada's Alternative 80's Show
Jeru The Damaja Live in Waterloo Sept 24 at Room 47! Come out and vibe with a New York Legend!
30th Anniversary for “Wrath Of The Math”
Speaking out against what he saw as a decline in rap during the mid-’90s, Jeru the Damaja came to the fore as a self-proclaimed prophet and the savior of hip-hop, much as KRS-One had done almost ten years before. Though he made few friends in the rap world — given his outspoken criticism of such popular figures as the Fugees and Sean “Puffy” Combs — he proved a vital force in the emergence of the new rap consciousness of the late ’90s.
