Duane Andrews casts a wide net in the musical world. Uniting what would seem to be impossible – traditional Newfoundland music with the swing jazz of the legendary two-fingered guitarist Django Reinhardt – Andrews doesn’t just make it work, he makes it soar. While Duane seems like a musical anomaly amidst the fiddles and accordions of his home province, it is difficult to imagine Newfoundland’s music scene without his idiosyncratic and creative musical spirit, and his virtuosic guitar work that continues to inspire players in Newfoundland and beyond. The Hot Club are a family affair, and includes Duane’s partner Erin Power on mandolin and son Isaac on fiddle and bass.

BC’s most exciting Newgrass band! The Unfaithful Servants have gained a reputation in Western Canada as a must-see act. With an original and exciting approach to acoustic music, the group serves up explosive instrumentals, compelling story-telling and high-powered vocals. As Kelly Nakatsuka (Islands Folk Festival, CBC host) describes “ The Unfaithful Servants are one of the most exciting bands from Vancouver Island in some time…gorgeous harmonies and fine song writing, beautiful instrumental interplay and some seriously rippin’ solos “ With critically acclaimed performances under their belt (Vancouver Island MusicFest, Salmon Arm Roots & Blues, The Islands Folk Festival) and a Canadian Folk Music Award nomination (New Group of The Year) they continue to build upon that buzz. The band remains anchored by the virtuosic mandolin playing of Jesse Cobb and the prolific songwriting of Dylan Stone. They are excited to be joined by new members, young talent Quin Etheridge (Quin with one N) on fiddle and Louis Rudner on bass.
