Our 2009 - 2010 Season Dates and Performers

Saturday September 26, 2009 - Prairie Oyster

You don't know what you've got 'til its gone. Those words from another Canadian musical great certainly ring true for the fans of Prairie Oyster who were eager for a new album from their honky-tonk heroes. Thing is the band never went away, but the gap between their records has shown how invaluable their contribution to Canadian roots music has been.

Now, the wait is over. Prairie Oyster is back and their new album, One Kiss, finds them at the very peak of their form. With more than 30 years under their well-worn belt, the band has amassed twelve new songs that is arguably their best work of their illustrious career.

The pigeonhole-proofed Prairie Oyster has never been swayed by prevailing musical trends and their never-wavering musical integrity helps account for both their longevity and the deep affection with which they are viewed by roots music lovers across Canada and beyond.

 

Saturday February 27, 2010 - Rankin, Church and Crowe 

Friends and colleagues Raylene Rankin, Cindy Church, and Susan Crowe, all award winning recording artists, bring their varied musical signatures to the stage in a mix of elegance and accessibility.

Folk, country, jazz, contemporary singer-songwriter are blended with a confident ease that makes for richly textured harmonies and a welcoming rapport that invites audiences in, and makes them want to stay.

 

Saturday March 20, 2010 - Stephen Fearing 

Multiple Juno Award winning Stephen Fearing is one of the foremost performing singer-songwriters in Canada.

Mixing powerful lyrics, creative arrangements and brilliant guitar playing, Fearing has built up a loyal and dedicated international audience with a wide range of songs - from his 1988 release Out to Sea, to his last Juno winning album Yellowjacket. A founding member of Blackie & the Rodeo Kings, Stephen has collaborated with many artists including Shawn Colvin, Richard Thompson, Sarah McLachlan, Tom Wilson, Colin Linden, Margo Timmins and most recently producing Happy Here the latest Juno-nominated album from Suzie Vinnick.

His latest recording, The Man Who Married Music is a 'Best Of' collection, with tracks handpicked by Stephen, featuring some of the best music he has released over his career as well as two brand new tracks No Dress Rehearsal and The Big East West.

 

Saturday May 1, 2010 - Luke Doucet and the White Falcon 

Luke Doucet is a Juno-nominated artist and producer whose most recent CD has been called “exhaustingly beautiful” by the National Post and hailed as “a landmark album” by the Toronto Star.

An integral part of the Luke's band for this concert is his wife, Melissa McClelland of whom the Globe and Mail says: “unforgettable... a coolly expressive singer, a gorgeously gritty lyricist, and a vivid painter of pop noir.”

Respected by their peers as well, Luke and Melissa have worked with the likes of Sarah McLachlan, Blue Rodeo, Chantal Kreviazuk and Jesse Cook, to name just a few.
