Main Performer: Martin Kerr (AB)
For years he toiled as an unknown busker on the streets of Edmonton. Today, he commands an audience of tens of millions of avid fans around the world, plays festival stages across North America, and opens for the likes of Sarah McLachlan, Walk Off the Earth and Blue Rodeo. What happened? What is the secret of the improbable, unstoppable rise and rise of Martin Kerr? It’s simple. He connects. He raises his voice, and before you realize it you’ve joined in, along with everyone else. Oh, and he doesn’t back down. Having taken a huge career risk by writing anthems for justice and democracy such as God Rest Ye Merry Billionaires and What’s Up America?, he has taken a stand without forgetting to remind us with full-throated, glorious abandon that while he’s not bad himself, YOU are amazing! https://www.martinkerrmusic.com/
Special Guest: The Parsons (BC)
Joelle and Clayton Parsons (who appeared at the CFC this past February backing Cara Luft) are a duo from the Kootenays who ply their trade with banjo, guitar and vocals steeped in traditional and contemporary folk idioms. Authentic, intimate, warm and soothing, you won’t want to miss The Parsons if you incline toward the kind of unpretentious, understated music of their BC colleagues Pharis and Jason Romero.
