Get ready, Vancouver—Hollywood Theatre is about to spark with some serious west coast magic this Friday! Daniel Wesley and The Boom Booms are teaming up for an epic night that’s all about good vibes, killer tunes, and heart-thumping energy. If you’re hooked on the BC alt and indie scene, this is your perfect excuse to let loose and discover two homegrown acts who make every show feel like a summer block party with your best friends.

Here’s the deal: Daniel Wesley is a true staple of our local music world. Whether you first caught his “Outlaw” album back in ’06 or got swept up by the infectious beach groove of his new track “Best Friend,” Wesley brings sunshine and soul to literally every stage he plays. Expect laid-back, singalong rock with a bit of edge—his band kicks off with feel-good hits and carries that easy livin’ vibe all night. And that’s just the start.

Sharing the stage are Vancouver legends The Boom Booms, whose funk, soul, and Latin rhythms pack a punch you’ll feel from the moment the first trumpet blares or the bass drops. Imagine storytelling with a beat you can’t sit down for, and lyrics that’ll have you thinking, “Yup, that’s my life!” These guys know how to bring crowds together, having toured everywhere from Pemberton Fest to Brazil (their “Boom Boom Brazil” doc is wild, by the way) and scooping up five straight “Best Unsigned Band” wins. Their sound is pure energy—and yes, the dance floor will overflow all night.

Why does this show matter for Vancouver? Because Hollywood Theatre is iconic—a place where music history gets written every week—and these two bands are lighting the way for BC’s indie scene. It’s about genuine connection, new friends, and music that makes you want to shout, groove, and remember why you love living here. Daniel Wesley and The Boom Booms together is not just a concert; it’s that feeling when you hear your story in a song—or when the whole crowd sings along and you realize you’re part of something big.​

Grab your friends, lace up those dancing shoes, and be ready to have your world rocked. This show isn’t a maybe—it’s THE event you’ll be buzzing about all weekend. See you there!
