Ken Whiteley has been playing folk, blues, gospel and other roots traditions at the highest level for well over fifty years. He has received many awards including a Canadian Folk Music Award, 7 Juno nominations, 18 Maple Blues nominations, a Genie Award (for Best Song in a Canadian Film) and Lifetime Achievement Awards from the Mariposa Folk Festival, The Maple Blues Awards and Folk Music Ontario but ultimately for Ken his music is all about making connections. He loves to get people singing with him whether he’s on a concert stage or at a folk festival, church service, or a yoga ashram.Ken has made over 32 albums and his most recent one, “Long Time Travelling” was just nominated for a Canadian Folk Music Award as Best Traditional Album. Of his over 400 songs, many have won awards and/or been covered by well-known artists. Ken is a living link to the traditions of the people he has played with including Pete Seeger, Tom Paxton, John Hammond Jr., Blind John Davis and many others. He brings this vast experience to each performance and has the ability to bring everyone in the audience together through the power of song. Joining him is one of our favorite voices, Jackie Richardson! Sunday November 24.
