Friday, February 13   Irish Mythen
Picture
Irish Mythen’s voice could halt maritime traffic on the St. Lawrence.  With a boisterous personality and staggering voice – as big as the social issues highlighted on five remarkable recordings – Irish has toured with the likes of Rod Stewart and Melissa Etheridge and performed in such prestigious venues as Sydney Opera House, Australia, and Glastonbury, UK. A profoundly proud, gay woman, who identifies as they/them/their, with an engaging, impish grin and a natural gift for communicating with an audience, Irish brings that raucous, moving, and often hilarious show to Kelowna, Feb. 13, at the Ukrainian Hall, 1933 Barlee Road. Truly an event not to be missed.

Concert Time: Friday, February 13, 7:30 PM
Place: 
Ukrainian Parish Hall, 1933 Barlee Road, Kelowna

Thursday, March 12  Stephen Fearing
Picture


The vocal booth for Stephen Fearing’s 1986, self-titled, debut cassette was a closet under his stairs. Everything stopped when the tenant above flushed the toilet. The lad has certainly come a long way since that 1986 release. What with recording with the likes of Emmylou Harris, Roseanne Cash, Lucinda Williams, Richard Thompson, Bruce Cockburn . . . and picking up a Juno or two along the way, both as a solo performer and with the trailblazing trio, Blackie and the Rodeo Kings, master Fearing has developed into a songwriter with a serious reputation. And let’s not forget his occasional outings with the wonderful Irish singer-songwriter Andy White. Clearly a master craftsman, Stephen’s latest recording, The Empathist, grew out of collaboration with Wilco and Uncle Tupelo’s Ken Coomer. It was recently voted Album of the Year by Folk Roots Canada. Stephen brings his highly anticipated talents to the Unitarian Hall, 1310 Bertram St. Kelowna, March 12. To avoid disappointment, get your tickets early as this show is likely to sell out.
