House show in uptown Saint John, NB. We will have two local singer-songwriters from Saint John performing original acoustic music in the country / folk / bluegrass / indie genres, and a 3-4 piece bluegrass band, originally from Moncton, but now based in Nunavut! (see more below)
We are so honoured to feature Clinton Charlton, known to many in the Saint John music community as the drummer/ in a number of local projects including Jessica Rhaye, Catherine Kennedy, and Penny Blacks. He is also a guitarist and songwriter, electronic music producer, and this is his own solo work on guitar. He played our HOUSEFEST open mic a few weeks ago for a sneak peak, and with Penny Blacks, ands this is his first solo show of his own work here at the HOUSE.
Josh Hicks is a little newer to the music community, but a gifted singer-songwriter and is the lead in Partake, the fairly newly formed local indie rock band (and Harmony House’s house band) Find him on Band camp under Josh Hicks. And his hip hop work under the name Jack Awful. This is his solo work : genre-bending and original. His first solo show at the HOUSE.
And it is with great excitement that we introduce Lester Slade and his band to Harmony House. Lester has been playing country and bluegrass in the Maritimes and in Northern Canada for years, and has released several videos on youtube and is on the streams, and there is a great session with he and Gina Burgess on violin out there too. This show will will be a three-four piece with vocals and strings! (and maybe even slide guitar!), as they stop by on their way through on tour.
As usual, we ask for donations for the artists only, and it is Pay What You Can. BYOB, SCENT-FREE, and a SAFE SPACE. Even if you can’t afford much, stop by and join us for the show! BACK YARD BASEMENT ENTRANCE. 42 Cliff St, uptown Saint John, NB.
