The Rockwater Grill + Bar
Perhaps you spent the day conquering the Rockies, tackling Kicking Horse Ski Resort, or taking in the views from your cabin. Or maybe you and the family are stranded due to the area’s notorious highway closures. However you spend your days in Golden, continue making it the best by relaxing and enjoying the cozy atmosphere at The Rockwater Grill and Bar. The Columbia valley’s premier entertainment venue.
Live music weekly from all over the world right here in our 360 person night-life room. We host an extensive range of events from folk music to punk rock to DJs and comedy. We have a riverside patio and a rooftop patio to easily accommodate everyone’s needs on those hot sunny days—hand-crafted food and cocktails made from the best ingredients.
Catering to large groups, assisting with fundraising events, or just a casual game of pool for your group of friends, we have it all!

Here's some info for ya
There are few acts on the west coast combining live instrumentation, high energy and gritty bass with the ferocity and craft than violinist Kytami and DJ/Producer Phonik Ops. They have made it their mission to create a truly unique sound that would be instantly recognizable as their own all the while drawing on their shared love of Drum n Bass, Hip Hop, Punk and bass heavy dance music.
Since connecting at a festival in British Columbia, they have become one of the most intriguing acts, standing out in an already saturated musical landscape. Kytami & Phonik Ops have continuously built up their fan base with spectacular live shows and an ever-increasing catalogue of impactful music.
This power duo has certainly kept up with their forward momentum in the past couple of years. They produced exclusive guest mixes for the DnB Show with Rene LaVice on BBC Radio 1 and BeatLab Radio, a weekly Bass music show out of Bend, Oregon. 2022 saw them headline many festivals across Canada as well as make their UK debut at Nass Festival just outside of Bristol....

Little is known about the Floorwalkers. It’s hard to get a straight answer out of the group as to where they’re from exactly, but it’s rumoured that they live together in a run-down cabin deep in the backwoods of Parson, British Columbia. The band consists of five members: Buddy Wackett on the pedal steel guitar and lead vocals, Travis Ryan Stone on acoustic guitar and vocals, Dicky Rhymans on electric guitar and vocals, Jackson Bakersfield on the bass, and April May June on the fiddle....
