The Rio Theatre is thrilled to welcome beloved East Van staple Petunia & The Vipers to our stage for an album release concert in support of their new album, ‘Calling Me Back,’ on Friday, December 27.

Louis Armstrong was once asked what his favorite kind of music was, and his response was simple; “Good music.” Petunia & The Vipers‘ sound may not sit comfortably in one certain genre, but “Good Music” describes it well.

Something in between 1920’s and steam punk. It’s good for your mind…These are just a few of the words uttered by folks around the globe trying to pin down a description of all that is Petunia & The Vipers.
