Welcome to the First Thursdays Songwriter Showcase hosted by Lynn Miles! Join us at The Pews for a night filled with incredible music and talented artists. This in-person event is a great opportunity to discover new songs and connect with fellow music lovers. Don't miss out on this unforgettable evening of live music!This month, Lynn is joined by Joey Wright and Jenny Whiteley.
Ask Joey Wright to describe his music, and he'll tell you cinematic quasi bluegrass jazz compositions". That description is hard to argue with. The follow up to 2003’s “Camp” Joey’s Black Hen Music debut is indeed a collection of gorgeous acoustic instrumentals that draw on bluegrass, jazz, blues and world music to create something beautifully unique yet wonderfully familiar. A warm and captivating ambience that closes your eyes as you breathe a little more deeply.
Jenny Whiteley grew up in a musical family in Toronto Ontario. Her father and uncle, Chris and Ken Whiteley, started playing music together in their teens, and went on to form the popular Original Sloth Band in the heyday of Toronto folk. As "the kids" Jenny and her brother Dan were always along for the fun at festival and concerts, soaking up all the sounds and influences of folk, old time and blues.
Doors open at 7pm. Show at 7:30
