Folkus: Suzie Vinnick & Lloyd Spiegel
Sat, 18 Feb 2023 - Sat, 18 Feb
Time: 8:00PM
Cost: Series of 4: $110. Single: $30/$15 students
Vinnick needs no introduction to local audiences, as she is a long-time friend of Folkus, beloved for her blistering bluesy guitar and bass chops, and honey-sweet vocals. Suzie has won 10 Maple Blues Awards, 1 Cdn Folk Music Award and is a 3-time Juno nominee. She has also twice won the International Songwriting Competition — Blues Category. She has just released her seventh solo album entitled Fall Back Home. Lloyd Spiegel is almost Suzie’s Australian counterpart, with 14 Australian Blues Music Awards under his belt. He blends jaw-dropping guitar chops with a commanding voice, powerful songwriting, storytelling and comedy. A touring artist since age 11 and with 10 albums to his name, Lloyd has squeezed more into his 40 years than many do in a lifetime.

Originally scheduled for 2020, A Leverage for Mountains have been honing their chops at home in Val-des-Monts, and recently released a new EP entitled Love Out of the Dark. They are stunning singers, and we expect their voices to soar here in the Almonte Old Town Hall. Opener: Mia Kelly is a Gatineau-based singer, with strong Lanark County connections and a knockout voice, whose material ranges from sweet folk to blues-inflected pop.
