NEXT SHOW - Gunning & Cormier

We've hosted Dave Gunning and we've hosted J.P. Cormier, so now we're upping the ante by presenting these Nova Scotian "brothers" in songs together for one amazing show, a show not to be missed.

Dave has gained a reputation for being a great storyteller and engaging performer. John Paul “J.P.” Cormier is a Canadian bluegrass/folk/Celtic singer-songwriter and multi-instrumentalist. To date he has won thirteen East Coast Music Awards and one Canadian Folk Music Award.

Their first album, "Two", released in June 2017 received the 2019 East Coast Music Award (Eastern Canada) for Folk Recording of the Year. Earlier this year they released their second CD, "Leather and Dust".
