The bill identifies this as McMurtrie’s solo appearance rather than a group performance. Shrine presents live music in a room arranged for both seated and standing audiences, with a hardwood dance floor, full backline, and professional sound engineering.
Beyond the solo billing, no biographical information about Ben McMurtrie is available here: there is no stated hometown, musical background, repertoire, collaboration history, or critical commentary to draw on. Shrine’s wider program supports independent artists across a range of genres and often hosts multiple bands in a night; its walls can feature monthly art exhibitions. The venue also has a full bar and food menu, and some nights continue into the early hours with DJs playing global beats after the live music. Those are characteristics of the venue’s broader offering, not details confirmed for McMurtrie’s set.
