Scroll down on this page for Kelowna Folk Roots concert information, but please make note of this special request.
Craig and Deb Milton of Summerland, BC have hosted many great folk and roots music artists over the years at their home ("An Evening In The Valley"). They have provided a truly engaging and warm concert experience for both artists and audiences. In addition, they have attended several Kelowna Folk Roots concerts and we appreciate their support.
Tragically, Craig and Deb have lost their home in the Bald Range Wildfire along with many others and our hearts go out to all of them. Dan Tait, one of the Okanagan's great musical artists, has launched a GoFundMe under the name "An Evening In The Valley Fire Recovery Fund" to help Craig and Deb.

Next Kelowna Folk Roots Concert Is On August 14th Featuring
DANA SIPOS
Numerous descriptions of Dana Sipos’ songs produce a litany of compelling phrases. Try: “Gently fierce.” “Cosmic folk.” “Earthen imagery.” “Intimate and otherworldly.” Or how about simply: “Deeply moving”?
Clearly, she’s a songwriter that thrives on originality while embracing elements of folk, country, blues, shades of Americana, and a hint of jazz.
Yet, she’s bound by none. She cites such inspirations as Nick Drake,
Beverley Glenn-Copeland, and the reclusive genius of Mary Margaret O’Hara, who contributed to Sipos’ 2018 disc, Trick of the Light. Somewhat of a gypsy soul, she has travelled extensively throughout North America before finally settling on Vancouver Island. And her numerous colorful adventures often take flight in her idiosyncratic songs. Normally, Dana Sipos performs solo
but, arriving direct from a weekend at the prestigious Edmonton Folk Music Festival, she will perform with a full band for the Kelowna Folk Roots Music Society.

Mama's Broke
Mama's Broke
Canadian duo Mama’s Broke consists of the considerable talents of Lisa Maria (vocals, fiddle, mandolin, banjo, guitar) and Amy Lou Keeler (vocals, guitar, banjo, fiddlesticks). “Folk-without-borders,” they brazenly classify their music. And for more than a decade these one-time buskers have forged a fabulous acoustic fusion inspired by everything from Anglo/Irish traditional balladry to Eastern European instrumentals. Of course, there's the social poignancy of their original writing all crafted with a studious, seamless, carefree credibility. Their debut recording, Count The Wicked, made an immediate impact earning them Folk Music Ensemble of the Year from the Canadian Folk Music Awards in 2017. Narrow Line (2022) and Reunion (2026) followed with equally lavish praise all of which resulted in prestigious appearances at numerous major folk festivals both at home and abroad.
Mama’s Broke performs September 15th,
at the Unitarian Hall, 1310 Bertram St. Kelowna.
Doors at 7:30 pm. Concert at 8:00 pm.
