Carmel Mikol, Kim Wempe, and Rosie MacKenzie
Thursday October 28 at 7:30 pm

Canadian singer/songwriter Carmel Mikol is a storyteller, crafting songs with a provocative blend of truth, fiction and wit. The title track of her new album, “In My Bones,” just took First Place in the Folk Category of the Great American Song Contest, and is a testament to the mature, literary songwriting that has her being deemed “the most promising Cape Breton born singer songwriter to hit any stage in years” (whatsgoinon.ca). Herohill.com echoes this sentiment, stating “in the very near future most East Coast music lovers will know the name Carmel Mikol.”

With a raw and powerful voice, Kim Wempe leaves an imprint on your soul and a melody you just can’t shake. Her evocative artistic style, fiercely emotional lyrics and honest onstage performance are one of a kind. Her star is rising with a recent wins for the Where I Need to Be EP (2009) at the Nova Scotia Music Awards (Folk Recording of the Year) and the 2010 ECMA's (Rising Star Recording of the Year), as well as a nomination for Female Solo Recording of the Year.

Rosie MacKenzie of Cape Breton has released her debut solo album entitled The MacKenzie Project. The little girl who wowed audiences with her fiddling as part of the group The Cottars is all grown up and has put together a wonderful collection of tunes and songs on this eleven track cd.
Tickets $10
