1. The great songs of Motown. Everyone knows Motown, everyone loves Motown, and even the least coordinated become dancing fools when they hear that Motown beat. The Meltdown has been getting Vancouverites on their feet with the timeless music of 60s-era Detroit — including hits by Martha and the Vandellas, Marvin Gaye, The Supremes and Smokey Robinson — since 2003.
2. A 12-piece band. The Motown Meltdown band is comprised of top session musicians who are bound to be “in the pocket” when it comes to delivering that signature Motown sound.
3. Benefit. Proceeds go to Seva, a Canadian program that helps pay for cataract surgery in developing countries.
4. Stephanie Standerwick. One of the artists to see at this year’s Meltdown, Standerwick is a protégé of Loverboy’s Mike Reno. The rock ‘n’ roll belter is about to release her debut album, Stand.
