In 2001 John Wort Hannam spent 10 months depleting his savings and writing the songs that would become his first recording Pocket Full Of Holes. Since then he’s earned a JUNO nomination, a Canadian Folk Music Award for Best Album of the Year, a CBC Galaxie Rising Star Award, and a Kerrville Texas New Folk win. John has just released his eighth full-length recording Long Haul which has received three 2023 Canadian Folk Music Award nominations. He’s spent years learning the craft of songwriting and is taking those tools to write some of his most personal songs. He has, quite literally, found his voice. John will be accompanied by Jason Valleau on stand up bass and Ryland Moranz on things with strings.
