The Burying Ground is an upbeat blues string band that brings the fire of punk to the technical prowess and distinct sound of such early blues, country and jazz masters as Blind Blake, Bessie Smith, Gary Davis, Memphis Minnie, Big Bill Broonzy, and Jimmie Rodgers. The core duo of Devora Laye (washboard, vocal and saw) and Woody Forster (guitar and vocals) are known for songwriting that illuminates the human experience, and reflects the modern day by touching on mental health, the trauma of war, social justice and good old-fashioned lost and found love. It is today’s commentary on a framework of vintage music. All three albums have hit the radio charts - Big City Blues (2015); Country Blues & Rags (2017); and The Burying Ground (2017). A rotating cast of masterful backing musicians accompanies Woody and Devora.

As always, recorded LIVE at Guilt & Company

Guilt & Company is Gastown's premiere live music venue, showcasing nightly performances by the best and brightest entertainers from Vancouver, Canada and Beyond! Established in 2010, Guilt found its home beneath Chill Winston on Gassy Jack Square, and has been providing large doses of class, sass and shimmy hugs to our fair city ever since. We were once known for our incredible selection of board games, but since have matured to offer more refined entertainment for the senses including live improv, swing and cabaret nights, as well as band showcases!

Vancouver's live music venue in the heart of Gastown.
