Music at MERA: Nathan Sloniowski

September 8, 2024 @ 2:00 pm - 4:00 pm
$30.00

with Vicki Brittle, Barry Buse and Bill Serson

 

It was not hard to see why Nathan Sloniowski and musical friends sold out their album release show at Folkus last February. Titled “The Lost Love Letter to a Small Town”, this concept album is a quality work on every level. With Nathan’s honey-bourbon voice, backed by a most impressive collection of studio talent, the album is a delightful musical carousel that makes stops at small town cafés, dance halls, tree-lined fields and limestone quarries, offering lyrical nods to many of his singer-songwriter heroes. The result is a nine-song tribute to what Nathan calls “the collage of open-hearted dreamers who grew me up in the 1970s artistic lair of Elora, Ontario, and the many more I’ve met in other small towns along the way.”

‘Folkus’ chair and artistic director Sandy Irvin succinctly describes Nathan as “a musical activist and pot-stirrer, ever-busy around town, known recently for sparking up the Almonte Song Circle as well as his work with The Ragged Flowers, …. also a co-founder of PorchFest de Mississippi Mills and is one of the original founders of Folkus.”

When Nathan offered to bring his “pretty hot band” comprised of homegrown hand-picked players Vicki Brittle on vocals, Barry Buse on guitar and bass and Bill Serson on drums, there was only one possible answer. See you September 8!
