SUMMARY:Music at MERA: The Quilter's Guild
DESCRIPTION:After years of mutual admiration\, Mike T. Kerr and Lotus Wight have stitched together a musical union\, an artfully arranged patchwork of instruments and influences\, each explored down to its deep authentic roots. A shared passion for music history and rare recordings provides common musical ground for these unique and masterful musicians. \nLotus Wight\, a.k.a. Sam Allison\, plays music in the key of Folk\, Blues and Ragtime. Audiences are captivated by his seamless movement from banjo to jaw-harp to guitar and his own invention\, the contrabass harmoniphoneum. His original songs\, both heartfelt and entertaining\, sound like they have been plucked from days of old\, and his inimitable style has won him accolades from all over the globe\, including festival performances in the Shetland Islands\, Turkey\, Denmark\, and the Netherlands.\nMike T. Kerr is a wild guitar player and ambitious songwriter who combines the boisterous ragtime of the Reverend Gary Davis\, the country class of Chet Atkins\, and the explosive energy of Django Reinhardt into a fireworks display of musical joy. Always curious to dig up not only a song’s history\, but the shape of the world at the time\, Mike plays passionately and openly while interpreting the great country blues and jazz players of the past. Mike is in high demand as a soloist\, an accompanist and session guitarist\, touring and recording with such notables as William Prince\, Corin Raymond\, Campbell Woods\, Irish Mythen and many others.\nAs The Quilter’s Guild\, these two mighty musicians will join forces at MERA to present an unforgettable afternoon of strumming\, picking\, singing\, entertaining and educating.\nCLICK HERE for more information and video about the Quilter’s Guild \nTickets are available at TicketsPlease.ca \nThanks to the generous support of the Ontario Arts Council we are able to offer a $20 discount to those 30 years and under\, and if they wish\, an additional $20 discount for their “guest” of any age. \nRegular – 31 years & older: $35 plus fees\nDiscount Single – 30 years & under: $15 plus fees\nDiscount Pair – 30 years & under with guest of any age (2 tickets): $30 plus fees \nFunding support provided by the Ontario Arts Council and the Government of Ontario
