Experience Points (EXP) is a critically acclaimed VGM band combining groove-based music with classic video game melodies.

Based in Edmonton, this dynamic group of musicians has performed for Video Game themed events, most notably Video Games Live, VGMTogether, and Bonus Stage, usually as a full 6-piece band with horns, but sometimes as small as a 2-piece "EXP Pocket"; a smaller, lighter unit that requires fewer batteries and fitting easily in your pocket. When Experience Points performs, audience members can expect a high-energy show that will keep you dancing all night long.

Our live Tuesday Jam is hosted by a musician and a band while audience members join in on the fun by jamming along on stage.

Musicians who want to participate in the Jam can purchase a "Jam Participant" ticket at a reduced cost.

All Jam Participants need to register at the door upon entry to the event.

Band members

Stephanie Urquhart, piano
Andreas Wegner, bass
Gus Butcher, guitar
Murray C. Smith, drums
Jacob Rabuka, tenor sax
