Carson Downey Band
The band that comes out swinging with a sonic assault design to win over any audience. With their musical roots in blues, soul, rock and funk and over 20 years experience in the music business, this band from North Preston Nova Scotia puts on a high energy show that must be seen to be understood.
John Campbelljohn
If it's alone with an acoustic guitar or up front accompanying his power trio on guitar or on his dobro lap steel you will get the sound of a musican who loves the craft of music. With a show that features sounds such as rocking blues, reggae, roots and even sometimes a bit country, this is a must see act with a huge range of sounds.
Kim Wempe
Smoky vocals and an amazing stage presence mark the performance of Kim Wempe. Her roots-tinged pop/blues sound features gospel like melodies and her power vocal performances leave audiences wanting more.
Curtis Matheson
The youngest performer on this bill is not one to be taken lightly. Performing since the age of 14, look for the release of his first album A Particular Blue, coming soon.
