Sam Wilson
Sowing Spring album release
Sunday, October 18
Doors at 2:00 pm, show at 2:30 pm
Acclaimed Halifax jazz-folk guitarist Sam Wilson celebrates the release of her latest album Sowing Spring with a full-band show featuring Caito Macdonald on drums, Kyle Tully on bass, and Hayley Ryerson on violin.
Sowing Spring is dedicated to the melting Magaguadavic River in New Brunswick. The material arose from a week-long residency along the banks of the river, named for the Maliseet-Passamaquoddy word meaning “River of Eels”. Blending finger-style guitar with the far-roving possibilities of jazz composition, Sowing Spring incorporates elements of folk, chamber music, and pastoral jazz to evoke wild spaces and the metamorphoses of seasonal landscapes.
Two Pianos No Rodeo:
Bob Wiseman & Mike Boguski
Wednesday, October 28
Doors at 7:00 pm, show at 7:30 pm
Presented in conjunction with CHMA
This isn’t a concert. It’s a piano séance in two acts.
Bob Wiseman and Mike Boguski, two of Canada’s most unpredictable keyboard minds are taking turns dismantling and reimagining what a solo piano set can be. One piano. Two artists. Zero cowboy hats.
THE PLAYERS:
BOB WISEMAN: Founding member of Blue Rodeo. Punk pianist. Lo-fi provocateur. Think Monk meets Burroughs at a Toronto dive bar. Expect sound collage, biting satire, sonic left turns. Nothing’s off limits.
MIKE BOGUSKI: Current Blue Rodeo pianist. Ambient soul explorer. A master of restraint and reverie. Piano as landscape. Melody as memory. Quiet storms and cinematic swells. Musical cliff jumping.
Each artist takes the same piano and launches in opposite directions - solo, stripped down, wide open.
One piano. Two deeply personal journeys.
No safety net. No genre crutches. No rodeo.
Come for the clash of styles. Stay for the communion. This is piano as protest, as prayer or as whatever they feel that night.
"Two Pianos, No Rodeo" is for those who like their art live, unexpected and slightly dangerous. Think of it less like a show and more like two sonic postcards from different planets sent through the same piano.
Built in 1877 by the Dixon family, this house served as their home for three generations. It has only changed hands twice since and is now home to Andrew Ennals, who returned home to Sackville starting in 2018 with the goal of restoring and opening the house for guests and events.
