IN-STORE
A sterling performance by Toronto’s “The Wooden Sky” drew a strong turn-out of supporters and fans Saturday afternoon here at Fred’s.
30 minutes of blissful vocal harmonies, introspective lyrics, flawlessly subtle instrumental arrangements, and an appreciative audience. Gavin Gardiner possesses one of the most soulful voices on the Canadian folk-rock scene, often leaving the crowd in amazement.
Thanks for sharing your songs with us at Fred’s. We’ll make it a Hat Trick next time you pass this way.

“THEY PROMISED YOU MERCY” IN-STORE
Let the celebration begin! It was dark and wet outside but the gathering of fans, friends and fellow-musicians embraced Amelia like a warm quilt as she (accompanied by Joel Hunt) performed several new songs Tuesday evening at Fred’s.
Rewarded with a set of songs, eloquent, poignant and vibrant, her new album, “They Promised You Mercy” released at home and abroad was spoke about with much praise by all in attendance.
The glasses were emptied, eats devoured while the minds were nourished and hearts replenished as the gathering sang in unison the refrain of the set’s closing number followed by rapturous applause.
