THE ROBSON VALLEY MUSIC SOCIETY & THE DUNSTER SCHOOLHOUSE PRESENT:<\/strong><\/h2>\n

RECKLESS BURNING LIVE @ THE SCHOOLHOUSE<\/h1>\n

Reckless Burning is a band rooted in a rare alchemy: five distinct and celebrated musicians and songwriters joining forces and drawing inspiration from the stolen, unceded territory of the Lheidli T\u2019enneh in Northern British Columbia. Driven by an impassioned commitment to social justice, this group uses music as both an outlet and an antidote to the wild horrors plaguing the world. Each dedicated to their own craft, together they create and share songs filled with beauty, pain, politics, and love. Refusing to be defined, labeled, or directed, these friends make music that makes sense of the times.<\/h4>\n
