Top 5 Gigs of the Weekend
Fri Apr 6, Old Man Luedecke, Toronto ON. Canada's best banjo player makes Friday in Toronto VERY Good with a show at the Great Hall w/ The Deep Dark Woods.
Fri Apr 6, Kathleen Edwards, Vancouver BC. The world tour finally finds Vancouver with a show at the Commodore Ballroom w/ guests Hannah Georgas.
