Under the Amber Lights Featuring Aaron Loewen

Vintage jazz charm inspired by Paris cafés and swing era classics

Under The Amber Lights Live Music Series returns to Vice & Virtue Brewing on Wednesday, July 8 from 7 to 9pm with a free live performance by Aaron Loewen.
 
 
Blending the romance of 1930s Parisian jazz with the energy of classic American swing, Aaron Loewen delivers a live music experience unlike anything else in Kelowna. Drawing inspiration from the legendary guitar work of Django Reinhardt, Aaron’s music captures the spirit of vintage jazz while bringing his own modern personality and musicianship to the stage.
 
 
Based between Vancouver and the Okanagan, Aaron has become a familiar name throughout British Columbia’s jazz community, performing both as a solo artist and alongside an impressive roster of acclaimed musicians. His performances weave together intricate jazz guitar, timeless melodies, and beloved jazz standards popularized by artists such as The Mills Brothers, The Ink Spots, and Fats Waller. Every so often, audiences may even hear an unexpected favourite from artists like Bill Withers or Bobby Hebb.
 
 
Known for creating engaging and dynamic performances, Aaron regularly showcases the talents of his fellow musicians, resulting in a live show that feels varied, spontaneous, and full of character. His various groups have appeared at major festivals including the Vancouver International Jazz Festival, Tofino Jazz Festival, ArtsWells, April in Paris Django Festival, and many others throughout Western Canada.
 
 
For this special evening, guests can enjoy the atmosphere of a European jazz club without leaving Kelowna. The combination of vintage jazz, exceptional musicianship, craft beer brewed on site, elevated shared plates, and an extensive wine list creates a memorable midweek experience that feels both sophisticated and welcoming. Whether you are a lifelong jazz fan or simply looking for something different, this performance promises an evening filled with timeless music, lively energy, and unforgettable moments.
