About

BAHAMAS IN CONCERT:

Soulful crooner Bahamas continues to wow audiences with his humble yet powerful voice and exceptional blues-guitar style. At his must-see live shows he charms audiences with ballads like "Already Yours" and melts hearts with the harmony-infused "Lost In The Light”. No matter the song or venue, Bahamas possesses a smooth, comforting vocal style that leaves new and longtime fans awestruck.One of Canada's biggest emerging artists, Bahamas displays immense talent and incredible showmanship at his live shows with powerful performances of originals like "Lost in the Light" and his rendition of the Human League's "Don't You Want Me".

BACKGROUND SNAPSHOT:

Bahamas is the solo project of Toronto-based singer-songwriter Afir Jurvanen. He recorded and produced his 2009 debut Pink Strat in an isolated cabin in Ontario's countryside, the perfect setting for his reflective tunes. The album earned him a Juno Award nod the following year for Solo Roots & Traditional Album of the Year, establishing him as a hot new act on Canada's music radar. His warm, harmony-laden music shined on his 2012 follow-up Barchords, which featured the lush fan favorite "Lost In The Light". Touring alongside City and Colour, Wilco, and Elvis Costello, Bahamas earned legions of new fans and received praise for his mesmerizing live performances. With his calm, low-key tunes and carefree stage presence, it's no wonder he shares his name with a relaxing island paradise and leaves ticket buyers feeling at peace on his tours.

    First Concert Since Lockdown

    by DD on 10/10/21House of Blues Boston - Boston

    We had tickets for Dawes, the end of September. We waited for 45 in line, before they came out and told everyone that the show was cancelled, due to someone testing positive for COVID. That show was rescheduled for later this month. We weren’t sure how this concert was going to go…we had our negative test results, our ids, our tickets…hoping that a show would happen. We got a parking spot close by. We walked right in, showed our ids and test results. Next we showed our tickets…..BOOM!!!! We were in!!! We had tickets upstairs in the stadium smack dab in the middle of the row, last row. The show didn’t disappoint. Sam Weber was awesome! Longhorn Slim was awesome! And ALFIE from the Bahamas was AWESOME!! Just him and his guitar, you can’t get any better than that! He played, we sang. The. Best. Night. Ever.

    Amazing performer but where was the band?

    by wl on 10/10/21House of Blues Boston - Boston

    Don’t get me wrong he was amazing, guitar was next level and sang like an angel but he didnt have anyone else play with him which I found odd since this wasn’t a coffeeshop but decently large concert venue. Idk if this is a one time thing or thats was just his choice. I just found it odd. Been to a lot of concerts and never had just one person on stage the entire time

    A genius songwriter... A brilliant guitar player... A hilarious entertainer... I'll be seeing Bahamas every chance I get as long as he's out touring.

    Wow

    by Jtumis on 10/5/21Mercury Ballroom - Louisville

    It takes guts to go onstage with only an amp, guitar and microphone. Afie crushed it!

    Bahamas live was special

    by NewfanfromMiami on 5/20/18Culture Room - Ft Lauderdale

    Bahamas were amazing. Love Culture Room atmosphere as a concert venue. Would have given a 5 but the sound was muddy at times. Otherwise a great time around great music.

    Incredibly talented musician!!!

    by purdcm on 5/17/18Ponte Vedra Concert Hall - Ponte Vedra Beach

    Discovered Bahamas from a Jack Johnson concert a few years ago and have been in awe ever since. Performances are always great! Loved every song. Good venue. Hope he comes to Jacksonville more often!

    Surprised

    by Braapy on 3/3/18Neptune Theatre - Seattle

    Drove 250 miles from the hinterlands, mostly for opener, Weather Station. Muddy audio and overpowering bass and drums didn't do justice to the clean and sparse arrangements of their recorded work. Still great to see them, and look forward to finding them in a more intimate venue with a more balanced mix. On the other hand, main act, Bahamas was so much more dynamic than their recordings, where the the instrumentation, to me, seems lost in a jack johnson-like muddle of happy schmarm....not that there's anything wrong with that. But live, Bahamas rips with unique, precise, and powerful guitar work and engaging vocals. Bonus!

    The Bahamas were magical

    by Gabriella427 on 2/26/18Teragram Ballroom - Los Angeles

    I was so excited to see The Bahamas live and they were absolutely amazing. Their sound was really good and it was the perfect venue for them.

    Great show. Afie is not only a cool guy but a tremendous entertainer. His band was flawless. The music spoke to the soul and the beats had my head bobbing. Only reason isn’t 5 stars for me is cus I was in the way back and there were a bunch of tall dudes in front of me. Even with that, enjoyed it and hope to go to another Bahamas concert soon (where I’m nearer the stage).

    Needs audio help

    by LuckySus on 2/17/18Delmar Hall - Saint Louis

    I really do like their music but I was a bit disappointed. The background vocalist's mic was up way too loud. It almost overpowered the lead singer. Now when I listen to their music, all I hear is her. Kinda ruined it for me. Other than that, the lead singer and the rest of the band are awesome live!

    The Bahamas are a great band to see live

    by Killertunes on 11/14/15Orpheum Theatre - Vancouver

    They are extremely talented. Great vocals and acoustic guitar will blow you away. It's a great time. They start off playing some of their hits, then slow it down a couple songs, then they finish off pretty strong. Awesome night. Great band to watch live!
