Every Thursday and Friday night on Trees Café in Granville Street in downtown Vancouver, local musical greats sing and play their hearts out on a very intimate live music stage. Musician John Pippus rounds up the talent for these evenings of coffeehouse revelry and occasionally takes a spot on stage himself to entertain the caffeinated masses with his blues-acoustic style.
We caught up with John last week as he made an appearance on stage alongside Beth Leonard, on a night that also featured Short of Able and The Tree Shepherds. We thought it was time to find out what inspires John’s music and his thoughts on Vancouver’s music scene.
