"Jeremy Facknitz"
Jeremy Facknitz's music is a throwback to when guitar slingin' singer-songwriters weren't afraid to turn it up, look you in the eye and play more than the same tired four chords. He embodies the soul of an old-time troubadour, but bitten by a radioactive rockstar and smitten with jazz and musical theatre. John Barlassot of At the Barrier (UK) writes "Jeremy Facknitz is, indeed, a major talent – and, I can guarantee, like nothing you’ll have ever heard before."
Hill Kerrville New Folk Songwriting Competitions at Kerrville Folk Festival. His song "Smilin' At The Future" made him an Empower (Posi) Music Award Winner in 2023 and his band "The Ottomans" won Best New Alternative Band at the Detroit Music Awards in 2001, beating out future rock n' roll Hall Of Famers "The White Stripes".

"Just Duets ring the Xmas bell"
These two musicians love playing Xmas music.It is a great opportunity to display their wonderful voices and great harmonies. Come and listen to a selection of the old and the new.
“Just Duets” is just two guitars and two voices, but that’s all you need to make any audience happy. Andrea Smith and Dave Lidstone have been together many years, and it shows in the ease and art of their performances.
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. Don’t miss this show, it will be a winner,
