SUMMARY:Connie Kaldor with Aleksi Campagne
DESCRIPTION:Connie Kaldor at the West End Cultural Centre – Sunday\, November 12\, 2023 at 8:00pm\n\n\nConnie Kaldor—singer-songwriter\, entertainer\, TV personality\, and women’s music pioneer—is  celebrating 45 years in show business this year with her upcoming 18th recording\, titled Keep Going! She began her career in folk music as part of the Canadian wave alongside artists like Stan Rogers and Valdy. Armed with her enormous stage presence\, her unforgettable melodies\, and her emotional depth as a songwriter\, Connie became a headline act on the festival circuit. Her extensive touring has earned her a loyal fan-base that extends far beyond the traditional boundaries of folk and the Boston Globe has described her as\, “a masterful performer\, wildly funny one moment\, deeply personal the next.” A three-time Juno Award winner\, Connie is a member of the Order of Canada\, a Queen’s Golden Jubilee Medal recipient\, holds an honorary doctorate from the University of Regina\, and is the first songwriter to receive a Western Literature Association Award of Merit. \n-—- \nAleksi Campagne is uniquely qualified to offer a contemporary\, indie-folk take on the time-honoured fiddle-singing tradition. When playing live\, Aleksi floors audiences by singing while bowing his violin and leading his four-piece band. His original music blends folk song writing with an edgy\, multi-layered sound resulting from his unique combination of voice\, violin and looping-effect pedals. In a full-page spread in the Montreal Gazette\, Brennan Kelly described him as “not just a folksinger with a guitar!” \nHe is now ready to launch his highly anticipated debut album titled For the Giving is set to launch in July 2023. The first single Won’t be Scared will launch on July 10th in English and in French. This single was selected as the only Canadian finalist in the Kerrville Folk Festival’s Grassy Hill New Folk Competition for Emerging Songwriters (with finals to be held in person on May 26th and 27th in Texas). Thematically\, this next single embodies the broader themes of the album that is about all the firsts of growing up–from first loves to first moves\, the first steps of your career and even first breakups.  \nThis album features 10 songs\, but 20 tracks—each of the 10 songs are fully translated to offer a full English and a full french version (on two discs in one sleeve). To create the album\, Aleksi received both a Canada Council Grant and a FACTOR Grant to fully fund the recording and its production. He then received an additional CALQ grant to create a video version of the album. This album will be launched in both audio and video formats this summer where he will debut it on a Canada-wide tour\, hitting festivals like the Canmore Folk Festival\, Springtide Folk Festival\, the Live from the Rock Festival\, Bear Creek Folk Festival\, and Islands Folk Festival. \nAlthough this will be his first full-length album\, Aleksi is not new to the stage. At five years old\, he began performing alongside his mother\, Canadian folk icon\, Connie Kaldor. At 19\, Aleksi moved to Paris to study under jazz violin legend Didier Lockwood. At 21\, Aleksi became the only student to have ever been accepted into the classical violin\, the jazz violin and the jazz voice performance programs at McGill University. And\, by 25\, Aleksi had graced the lineups of some of Canada’ most beloved folk festivals—including the Mariposa Folk Festival\, the Regina Folk Festival\, and the Northern Lights Festival\, among others.

SUMMARY:Old Man Luedecke with special guest James Culleton
DESCRIPTION:Old Man Luedecke with special guest James Culleton – Thursday\, November 16\, 2023 at 8:00pm\n\n\nEasy Money picks up where Old Man Luedecke’s award winning\, and most successful release to date\, Domestic Eccentric (2015)\, leaves off: four years farther down the road\, dreaming about his ship coming in\, still a parent but now grappling with the newness of middle age\, dad jokes\, love for an abiding partner\, the death of a parent\, along with some calypso-feeling local Nova Scotia history thrown in for good measure. \nComposition and recording were both begun at the Banff Centre’s songwriter-in-residence program. It was there that Luedecke met the album’s producer Howard Bilerman of Montreal’s famed Hotel2Tango studio where the album was eventually recorded. The two hit it off when Luedecke composed “Easy Money” on the tracking floor on the first day of the program. Desperate for something worthy to use in his recording time\, Luedecke channeled a traditional Christmas number he knew from a Harry Belafonte record and sang largely improvised verses into a winning tune that is sure to be a modern classic: “Oh yes I need it\, Oh yes I want it\, I dream about easy\, I dream about Easy money.” Don’t we all.

SUMMARY:Hayden with Chloë Doucet
DESCRIPTION:Hayden at the West End Cultural Centre – Wednesday\, November 22\, 2023 at 8:00pm\n\n\nHAYDEN \nFor over 25 years\, Hayden has been making music on his own terms and on his own schedule. The Polaris Prize and Juno nominee has produced\, engineered\, and mixed most of his records at home\, creating a world of his own\, exploring themes ranging from love lost and found to bear maulings and home invasions. Hayden recently released East Coast\, the first song from his long anticipated 9th full length album expected in early 2023. He is also the co-founder of Dream Serenade\, an annual benefit concert at Toronto’s Massey Hall for children with developmental and physical disabilities and their families\, established in 2014. \nCHLOË DOUCET \nKnee-deep in the 21st Century\, when autotune has overridden the wail of the wah-wah pedal and the tactile splendor of a 45 has been replaced by the non-entity of a digital streaming service\, Toronto-based singer- songwriter Chloë Doucet seems to have been hand- selected by the ghost of George Harrison to reinvigorate the classic notion of guitar-driven rock & roll. While what we now refer to as “classic rock” tends to feel plodding and steeped in nostalgia\, Doucet’s incandescent vocals\, scrappy guitar riffs and meditative\, often whimsical lyrics look toward a fresh & rebellious future while simultaneously paying homage to her beloved lo-fi past.  \nAn ardent Beatles lover since early childhood\, Doucet’s love for the guitar feels like more of a journey than a choice. After cutting her teeth as a member of the cleverly- named garage rock duo Side Hustle\, she has since found her niche as a subtle yet powerful solo artist a la Harry Nilsson or Carole King; through recent collaborations with members of Toronto’s Zeus\, Chloë remains entirely in control of her own vision. Hers are sparkling\, contemplative melodies\, corduroy-textured & saturated in shades of butterscotch & goldenrod\, the kind of songs meant to be listened to on headphones in moments of late summer solitude. Her new single\, “Stormy Blue\,” is no exception\, pairing an addictively sunshiney melody with her trademark lyrical introspection. “Music is like magic\,” Chloë says herself— a magic that her uncanny\, understated ability to capture manages to elude time or place\, instead defining a moment that is entirely her own.
