Michael Leigh Gresham is a 30 year old singer-songwriter, director, and visual effects artist. Born in Victoria, BC, Gresham is now based out of Vancouver and has spent the last few years weaving together emotive vocals with sounds that make you feel removed from life’s stresses. If you can’t find him writing, directing music videos, recording, or playing shows around Vancouver, you will surely find him busy at work in the Visual Effects industry where he met his fellow band members, Diego Rebello (bass guitar) and Curro Doyagüez (drums and percussion). Moving forward after releasing his latest single, The Owl, Michael and the band are pursuing a tight nit trio ensemble of soft rock, reggae, bossa nova and funk inspired music. Energized by the bands cultural background and the beloved West Coast, Gresham is excited to bring a new sound and a new live show into 2019.

The Juniper room is a place of connection with no neighbors to bother. Originally a run down office space, a collective of friends took the initiative to re-vamp this space into an inspiring, open concept living room, studio & venue. With a small main room (40 people max), it is natural for the attendee's to feel like they are part of any performance, a mirror reflecting back to the Artist's creative flow. We love the art of capturing any performance art with an acute focus on quality sound & lighting. We love spontaneity, feeling inhibition free, egoless & ultimately spreading love, appreciation & genuine care. 

Lots of exciting things coming to the www.thejuniperroom.com in 2016. Message info@thejuniperroom.com to connect. :)

Les Stroud, the visionary behind and creator of the iconic Survival TV genre with his seminal series “Survivorman”, is an exceptional talent whose expertise extends from wilderness survival to the realms of music. As a seasoned musician, singer-songwriter, and film composer, Stroud channels his profound connection with nature into creating music that spans genres like rock, world, prog rock, folk, blues, and ballads, each piece echoing the rhythms of the Earth.

His debut CD, "Les Stroud," marked the beginning of a musical voyage where melody harmoniously met the wilderness. Further exploring this fusion, Stroud collaborated with The Campfire Kings and The Northern Pikes, producing 3 roots-rock/acoustic albums. These collaborations yielded music that deeply resonated with listeners, drawing them into a world where nature and sound intertwine.

Stroud's epic album, "Mother Earth" and the rich "Bittern Lake," were both produced by legendary Mike Clink, and stand as testaments to his environmental passion and musical range. Mother Earth features the world sounds of ancient chanting and remote indigenous musical collaborations from jungles and deserts around the world. Featuring collaborations with icons like Slash and Steve Vai, it showcases Stroud's versatility and commitment to blending diverse musical styles. His album "Bittern Lake," is celebrated for covering some of the greatest environmental songs in history.

On stage, Stroud transforms into a captivating performer. His concerts are more than live music events; they are immersive experiences where powerful imagery, storytelling, and music converge. Stroud's prowess on the harmonica, joined by A-list performing musicians is combined with his engaging narratives about survival and nature, and combined, creates a unique concert atmosphere that is compelling and awe inspiring.

Les Stroud's transition from a globally recognized survival expert to a respected musician, composer and performer is a journey of multifaceted talent and unwavering passion. His albums, star-studded collaborations, and compelling live performances celebrate life’s adventures and pay homage to the natural world, resonating with audiences worldwide. As an independent artist, Stroud's creative autonomy in his musical journey speaks volumes of his artistic integrity and dedication to his craft.
