We are pleased and excited to announce our Fall 2013 Season. We welcome some new performers along with some familiar faces. Sloan will be finding their “Folky” side to start the season in September followed by Pear and Alex*Cuba. If you enjoyed the original Barrage you will certainly recognize Lynae and Denis (Pear) who fronted the troop. Alex *Cuba wowed us with a solo performance at our Festival in 2009. This time he will bring his two piece backing band to enrich our experience, be sure to bring your dancing shoes!
Over the last 22 years, Juno and ECMA award winners Sloan have been a fixture of Canadian Rock. The group formed in Halifax in the early '90s while attending University. All four members of Sloan write their own songs, each has their own distinctive voice and when they play live they switch instruments accordingly with each different song. With influences diverse as The Beatles, punk rock and AC/DC, the young band was signed within months of their creation. They can boast massive Canadiana hits like "Money City Maniacs", "Coax Me" and "Beverly Terrace". Sloan recently released their coming of age album, Twice Removed.
