Kray Van Kirk

It has been over 5 years since Kray graced the boards at SFG. A lot has happened since that time. Kray is a hardworking musical Road Warrior, playing many gigs throughout the US and internationally.

A fine finger-style guitarist with a precise baritone, Kray write songs that tell stories and summon heroes. "We are driven by myth and the seasons of the heart," he says, "and the stories are all true. There is a dark cave inside each of us, and monsters of all kinds lurk there, all the more lethal for being hidden. The quest is to journey inside, render the monsters powerless, find whatever it is that burns at the core of your soul and bring it back into the light”. In a world divided it is critical to write songs and tell stories that show absolutely everyone they get to be the hero. Nobody is left behind.

Of this charming, quixotic, and decidedly eclectic performer, the Borderline Folk Club in New York wrote “it is what every singer-songwriter should aspire to.” Kray is a very powerful performer and you won’t be disappointed. see https://krayvankirk.com

Brian Robertson & Michael Burnyeat

Vancouver based folk musician Brian Robertson has been called “a genuine BC treasure” for his “well-crafted and entertaining songs” about the west coast,(“Saltchuck Serenade”) as well as some that reflect more universal themes of love, travel, social justice and the blues. His music rings with a real depth and authenticity derived from a long and varied working life and extensive world travels and interests.

Accompanying Brian is Michael Burnyeat, a skilled and versatile musician based in Vancouver, specializing in Celtic, Folk, and Country genres. With a strong reputation as both a fiddler and multi-instrumentalist, he is in high demand among bands and singer-songwriters for his tasteful accompaniment skills.

"Just Duets"

We welcome Just Duets back to the Guild

Just two voices and just two guitars, but even with such a limited number of instruments "JUST DUETS" creates a great amount of music. Andrea Smith and Dave Lidstone offer a musical collaboration with wonderful sibling-like vocal harmonies and accomplished guitar accompaniment.

They have produced two CD's and performed at folk clubs and concert venues throughout the Lower Mainland and on Vancouver Island. Expect a concert of songs of life and love that reflect a commitment to social justice, to Canadian roots and to poetry in song, and a few toe-tapping instrumental pieces.
