A Port Theatre DISCOVERY Series Presentation

Sirreal featuring Lower Case g, Revron, Bearclaw and Oktiv6

Every once in a while, a breath of fresh air will enter the music scene that revitalizes the spirit, cleanses the soul and reminds us why music is such a universal connector. Sirreal exhales that air.

For Sirreal, connection drives his music. He is inspired

most by the ability to help people feel less alone through

the messages they can relate to within his art. Losing his

brother, father and 2 best friends to suicide, Sirreal knows

the effect that suicide can have on families, communities and

those left behind. He wants his message to make a

difference and let people know that they are not alone

with their struggles.

Hailing from Nanaimo BC, Canada, he has been working with his community by going to schools and talking to youth about suicide prevention, resilience and getting through hard times with art for 7 years. In that time, he has spoken to over 12,000 youth. He is now an outreach support worker and works with adults with FASD, Autism, Mental health issues and street entrenched adults.

With his next releases, the Blue and the Red albums, he hopes to bring his message of music as medicine to the world, one invisible person at a time.

“I have made 2 pieces of art that cover the full spectrum of our emotions. The Yin and the Yang. My hope is to help everyone feel less alone and invisible; only then can we start to combat this epidemic of depression, loneliness and suicide”

Each album is a different type of medicine.

  • The Blue Album (Available Now) is a full live band experience with doses of hardships and reality.
  • The Red Album (Coming Early 2021) is an upbeat mood enhancing prescription with danceable tracks that will help uplift the soul.
