Several Southern Alberta musicians took the stage to premiere a few new songs and raise a little money to fight AIDS for a good sized crowd of approximately 50, Dec.1.
There were a plethora of performers on stage, sharing their original music.
And while I missed Vista Park, Indio Saravanja, Johnpaul Smith and Brenna Lowrie and Leeroy Stagger, I arrived in time to catch Karen Romanchuk.
She played a short set of familiar favourites as well as a brand new , upbeat country song.
John Wort Hannam followed with a quick set of original songs including a new song. He brought out a tenor guitar for one of the newer songs, which had a bluegrass sound to it.
Matt Robinson ended the evening with a set of original music, playing with a friend.
The proceeds from the show were donated to Partners In Health, whose mandate is to bring relief to the world’s poor.
Long and McQuade donated a guitar to be auctioned off at the event to help out as well.
