Overview

One of Vancouver's most entertaining acts - PTC delivers a highly dynamic and engaging live show that brings everyone to their feet... no wonder 80% of their shows are repeat gigs & referrals!

Together since 2008, Posing Til Closing performs regularly at corporate and private events all over the lower mainland. We take pride in our material variety and musicianship: our drummer is a former touring pro, our guitarist won battle of the corporate bands and our vocalist/percussionist played the PNE with the Powder Blues.

We also perform Tribute Shows featuring the music of Santana and/or Rolling Stones and/or British Invasion - which are perfect for community events. Ask us for details!

Great energy, great local talent

We're so grateful that these guys played our party. Their energy was contagious, their sets were packed with well-loved songs, and planning was easy because they thought of all the details. I was especially impressed with the technical skill of the guitarist and hand percussion. It's not every band that can pull off Santana, Dire Straits and Stevie Ray Vaughan.
Rock on, guys!

Response from The Posing Til Closing Party Band:

Jamie, On behalf of PTC, thanks for being such a great organizer and for your kind comments. We're delighted you and your guests had such a great time and I hope your parents enjoyed their anniversary as much as we enjoyed playing. We loved to see so many people dancing (note for anyone reading this - they were all "Covid distanced" in groups)! Also, thanks for the shout-out to our players... please look out for our upcoming Santana Tribute shows (we'll post to FB) where we'll be showcasing even more of Brian's guitar wizardry! :-)

What to Expect

With Posing Til Closing you can expect a professional experience from start to finish - as you'd expect from a band that has been playing together for 14+ years.

We start by spending time with you well in advance to understand your event; your venue, your audience and any logistics required to make the event a smooth-running success that everyone raves about afterwards. If you don't have Stage lights or a PA don't worry! We are equipped to bring everything required for your show - whether it is an intimate house party or a large outdoor event.

With Posing Til Closing - the live show is one less thing to worry about!

About

Brian (Guitars) and Stuart (Vocals and Percussion) met in 2004 playing in a corporate band that traveled across the country and was winner of "Corporate Battle of the Bands". Together with Allan they formed "Posing Til Closing" in 2008.

Posing Til Closing and Community Giving
Giving back to our local communities is integral to our band’s philosophy. Every year we donate our time and energy to support six fundraising events for major charities and not-for-profits. Over the years we have supported many great causes including Canadian Cancer Society, Delta School Board, Make-a-Wish Foundation, Easter Seals, Canadian Leukemia & Lymphoma Society, Vancouver Orphan Kitten Rescue, Downtown East Side Food-Bank and the BMO Vancouver Marathon - with audiences from a few hundred to several thousand. Our Movember fundraiser, sponsored each year by Davidson & Co Chartered Accountants ,is now in it's 6th year.

Who's in the band?
Stuart Turnbull - Vocals and Percussion
Stuart started drumming at age 9 and was performing by age 12. He switched to hand percussion and vocals in the early 90's, training with the late Boying Geronimo, founder of Vancouver's top latin band Rumba Calzada. Career highlights include playing with the Juno award winning Powder Blues Band at the 2002 PNE, opening for the Great Big Sea and winning the Corporate Battle of the Bands as a member of the TELUS WebTones. Stuart plays Roland RD88 Keyboard, Gon-Bop Conga's, LP Timbales, LP Bongo's and Zildjan cymbals.

Brian Meadows - Electric, Acoustic, Spanish guitars. Banjo.
Brian and Stuart met and played together for 5 years in the TELUS WebTones prior to forming PTC. When he's not playing with PTC you'll find Brian lighting up the stage with the popular Led Zeppelin tribute band "The Ocean". He has a collection of guitars - Stratocaster(s), Telecaster, Gibson Les Paul, Martin acoustic...

Matt Paven - Drums
A former touring professional and currently one of the most sought after drummers in Vancouver, Matt brings energy and stage presence to every show. Matt owns 8 drum kits from Ayotte, Gretch and Ludwig.

Allan Nakatsu - Bass Guitar
Allan helped form the band in 2008 and hasn't looked back since! Rock solid on bass and tightly locked-in with Matt, the duo form the perfect rhythm section foundation for the band.

Additional Booking Notes

For most smaller gigs (150 attendees or less) we are self-sufficient. Our state-of-the-art Bose PA system provides exceptionally clear sound reinforcement - and offers unique "Spatial Dispersion" technology that provides consistent sound on-stage and in all areas of the audience... not just directly in front of the speakers.

For larger gigs, and those with unique sound or visual requirements we can provide your operations team a comprehensive stage plot which details our requirements. We've played gigs from 100 to 2,000+, indoors and outdoors (including in a torrential downpour), and so we have the experience to navigate through any unexpected wrinkles that may arise.
