Acrpost: A Project of the Pacific Association of Artist Run Centres

Event Description

Noon - Jim Scales - he has the words, the voice and the guitar to sing you some fantastic classic country covers
1pm - Paul Washington Trio - seems fitting on country music appreciation day to honour the country swing end of thangs
2pm - Chris Andres - Chris is an ‘outlaw’ country singer/ songwriter that is gaining some recognition finally on the national scene...you will understand why if you tune in...probably his buddy Dave will share the two hours and give us all the real stuff
3pm - Dave Pittet - front man for the Johnny Cash tribute band ‘Big River’ he has a passion for ‘outlaw’ country and so I suspect he and Chris will be sharing both sets just having musical fun
4pm - Pine Box Rebellion - when musical guys have a family, they only get certain times to continue with their passion for music but when they do get some time in, they form a band and this is them
5pm - Orith Horwitz with Leon Nagasaki - Orith Horwitz aka Lady O (bass and vox) and Leon Nagasaki (guitar) are a dynamic local duo. Original songs, clever interpretations of jazz standards and playful folk melodies. Groovy, Jazzy, Pop best describes them.
6pm - The Porter Brothers - a valley favourite, these dairy farming brothers are the real deal when it comes to sweet country styled roots rock
7:30pm - Jeff Plankenhorn - this Texas boy has been spending some time on the island and so loves what we do that he agreed to come play for our festival twice this year
8:30pm - Daniel Cook and the Radiators - sensible country veined songwriting from Vancouver Island, some of the finest I have ever heard
