“We recently had Victor Nesrallah perform at our live music venue in Parksville BC. Victor gave a warm and captivating performance that was well received by the audience. His songs often tell a story, and the audience was transported to other locations in the world as Victor explained the story behind his songs. What made the night so unique was the musical nod to his middle eastern background, which gave a colourful and exotic touch to his songs. We anxiously await his return to The west coast! ”
