ABOUT TIM WILLIAMS
|
|
Noted blues musician, Tim Williams’ career began in the coffee houses of Southern California in the mid-1960s and continues today around the world from his home base in Calgary. Williams has played festivals, folk clubs, concert halls and roadhouses from Rabat, Morocco, to Melbourne, Australia, and from Dawson City, Yukon Territory to Zihuantanejo, Mexico, all to huge acclaim.
His guitar skills are frequently compared to Ry Cooder and David Lindley (and like them, Williams plays a wealth of other string instruments), and his songwriting has won praise from such luminaries as Tom Russell and Willie Nelson. Two JUNO nominations, several Maple Blues Award nominations (Toronto Blues Society), and a string of other awards for his work as artist, guitarist, producer attest to the high calibre of his work. In 2014 the Calgary Blues Music Association awarded him with a Lifetime Achievement Award and a Hall of Fame induction. 2014 was a very good year for Tim as he also won first place in the solo/duo category at the 30th International Blues Challenge in Memphis, TN. More than 250 acts from 40 states, 16 countries and four continents vied for the top prizes before a panel of judges over five days. Come on out to our outdoor house concert and be entertained by one of Canada’s premier musicians. Not only will you hear the blues but likely some Latino music as Tim shares influences from his childhood growing up in Southern California.

Rick Halisheff
July 24th, 2021
You may know Rick as "Poppa Dawg", as he brings his music to folks around the Okanagan. This outdoor performance provided a unique up-close-and-personal opportunity to soak up Rick's original songs and cover tunes that make us feel great!

Our friend Bruce, sans Tiller's Folly, was such a treat. Our second solo performance by this talented and multi-faceted songsmith. Thanks for starting our 2021 season, Bruce.
Kentucky Eileen
October 1st, 2020
Local bluegrass/newgrass/folk band, Kentucky Eileen, was postponed due to forest fire smoke but we are so glad that they could accommodate us for our last show of the summer season before restrictions tightened up again. Their joyful noise lifted us up and was especially poignant because we did not know when next we would be able to enjoy live music.

A solo performance by one half of the small glories brought us laughter and joy along with the expected unbelievable claw hammer banjo. This Juno winner delivered exactly what our COVID weary audience wanted and needed.
