Inspired by stories of Higgins’s great-grandmother, Eva Bersay, Songs of The Fire Waltz is a one-of-a-kind audio experience. A riveting tale of an extraordinary woman, The Fire Waltz follows Eva on her journey to Canada from Jersey Island, off the northern coast of France, during the early 1900s, depicting the power and perils of love, the realities of a world at war and the uncertainties of the aftershocks. Higgins will be joined by co-creator Kris Demeanor and bass player Gilles Fournier.

Newfoundland’s Ian Foster is a storyteller who continues to evolve and defy genre, as his latest forthcoming album and film project Close to the Bone illustrates.  He is a MusicNL and East Coast Music Award winner and a finalist for the International Songwriting Competition.  A master with words, he’s got many a tale to tell and tells them with elegance. Some of the songs are in essence short stories, others poeticisms reflecting a connection to his surroundings.
