The Slieves are a high energy Irish trad band hailing from Victoria, British Columbia. The talented members include the magical Tasia Mackay (Irish flute, vocals), the accomplished Jeremy Wash (guitar, vocals) and the foot stomping rhythms of Andrew Morris MacKay (bodhran, spoons, vocals).
Richard Garvey is a guitar-strumming, banjo-plucking, and sing-along-starting performer and community organizer. His award winning songs explore the highs and lows of love, injustice, and the marbled mess of the human condition. Award-winning singer-songwriter Marina Avros, known for her solo work and performances with the Belle Miners, hails from Vancouver Island. Her music has been described as "delightful and genuine" with "memorable melodies" and "one-of-a-kind vocals". Be sure not to miss this intimate and entertaining evening!
Known for her unique voice and heartfelt performances, Cortes-Island based Jemma Hicken (Jemma & the Good Thing) weaves together tender lyrics, funny storytelling, and catchy sing-a-longs to create a feel-food Canadiana-folk show.
