We had a wonderful start to our 43rd season last night. Openers Flint and Feather offered delightful harmonies, showcasing original songs from their upcoming album. Lizzy Hoyt’s spectacular vocals on songs both traditional and original, featured lovely accompaniment on guitar, fiddle and harp. Lizzy was ably backed by Keith Rempel on stand up bass and back up vocals and Jared Albright on mandolin, guitar and fiddle. Lizzy got the crowd singing along several times and easily earned a standing ovation and encore.

A nationally recognized Celtic songwriter, singer, and multi-instrumentalist (fiddle, guitar, harp), Lizzy Hoyt’s fifth album, The Parting Glass, received the 2023 Canadian Folk Music Award for Traditional Singer of the Year. Lizzy will be accompanied by Keith Rempel on bass and vocals and Jared Albright on guitar, fiddle and mandolin.
Flint & Feather is the musical project of Joal and Lauren Kamps. Joal, who served as Alberta’s Artist in Residence and Arts Ambassador from 2020-2021, and Lauren draw upon Western Canadian history, Rocky Mountain folklore, and their own colourful life journeys for inspiration, the result being original songs that convey stories with an uncommon charm.
