We've started a Waitlist in case of cancellations

Parkin, Miller & Carmichael | Fri, May 19 - SOLD OUT!

We call them the Library Gang - if you know, you know, but in any event, we booked 'em.  This is a Songwriters Circle with a Blues twist and within that twist, the twist of Joanna Miller's wackadoodle sense of humour and not oft seen songwriting chops.  Speaking of chops, Chris 'Chopper' Carmichael returns to Wits End as the purveyor of his own fine work.  Brent...well, 'nuff said.  

​Doors Open 7:00 |  Show 7:30  |  Tickets $31 by RSVP & etransfer to ian.mattey@gmail.com

Waitlist started.  For the time being we're capping this show at living room capacity.  If we are able to host the show in our backyard, which holds more folks, those on the Waitlist will get first dibs on spots.

Joël Fafard | Thurs, May 25 - SOLD OUT!

Award-winning guitarist Joël Fafard performs Southern roots and blues classics with the soul of a purist and the showmanship of a seasoned entertainer.  He sings with the sexy, sandpapered vocal style of the new-generation bluesmen. He tells his hilarious between-song stories with the confidence of a late show host delivering his monologue.  And when he lets rip a solo on his resonator guitar, you know how he once earned both a Juno nomination and a Western Canadian Music Award for his skills on the axe.

Joël is also doing a house concert with Avalon Arts on the 24th, so maybe reach out to Pam at pampoulterfriesen@mymts.net if you don't want to risk missing him.

Juvel | Sat, July 29 - Just Announced!

Juvel is the musical project of four dynamic musicians who strive to keep your toes tapping with the energetic sound of Romani jazz and early swing. Heavily inspired by musicians like Django Reinhardt and the Andrews Sisters, Juvel combines the dark, chromatic flavor of Romani music with cheeky, lush four-part harmonies and the carefree liveliness of swing.

Can you think of a better way to spend a Saturday evening than under the stars with Juvel?!

When we heard Edmonton's Joe Nolan was booked to play this year's Trout Forest Music Festival, we got pretty excited! So we reached out and offered him a place to stay and play on his way there...and Voila!
