On April 27, join Music Mile YYC, Mo Gravy Records, and the Inglewood Business Improvement Area (BIA) for Snow Melter Presents – Flyfest: A Musical Tribute to Marvin “The Fly” Kee. The musical event will feature live performances in the evening, along with a daytime mural unveiling that captures the vibrant venues of Calgary’s Music Mile and an unforgettable denizen who played them. As a bass and guitar player in a long list of Calgary bands spanning a myriad of genres, from flamenco to soul and funk to punk, Kee was a notable figure in Alberta’s music scene since he started performing in the late 1980s. He passed away in March of 2023 of cancer. Flyfest: A Musical Tribute to Marvin “The Fly” Kee will bring together many of Kee’s musical collaborators and friends to perform live in his honour, including Sargeant X Comrade, La Mosca, Deicha &amp; The Vududes, and the Ex-Boyfriends. The day will begin with an unveiling of a mural by artist Alex Kwong at 1209 9 Avenue SE (parking lot beside Jam's Diner), followed by a New Orleans-style jazz funeral march led by Delirium Street Party Brass down 9 Avenue SE to 9 Street SE where the mini-music festival portion of the event will take place.
