Uxbridge Unplugged - yes another new event

As I have been sharing with you, all of you wonderful people of the world, and my very dedicated 5 followers, Uxbridge Celebration of the Arts, 25th Anniversary, has been coming up with some of the most exciting, exhilarating, entertaining and, well just darn fabulous new events. Another is Uxbridge Unplugged.

On Friday, September 24th at 8:30 pm at the Uxbridge Music Hall, 4 very accomplished singers from the area - four very different style- will share their passion of music in one evening.
Not only are you going to hear their beautiful voices and haunting melodies, but you will hear from each of them the "Why" and "Where".

Tamara Williamson has toured and recorded in Canada and Europe and has been dubbed the "Godmother of Indie" for her very independent sound within her 5 albums. Having shared the stage with artists such as Feist, Oasis and Rheostatics, she will fill the stage on her own.

Carlie Laidlaw, who is an established Uxbridge vocalist, lead in a number of bands and heard at events such as the Royal Winter Fair. You can hear her on the recently released "Hummingbird" project, a CD of local original music.

Bringing along her country/rock attitude and voice, is Leah Daniels. Born and raised in Uxbridge, she has very recently spread her wings to Vancouver, opening for Johnny Reid at the 2010 Olympics, as well as a writing trip to Nashville.

Whitney Ross-Barris is an emerging solo artist on the Toronto Jazz scene, as well as a professional actor for over 11 years. Her performances have taken her all over Canada, the US and to Europe. We are thrilled that she will stop and be with us.

TO TOP IT ALL OFF - the evening will be hosted by Neil Crone and with that will come its own form of entertainment and excitement.

Doors will open at 8pm and the tickets are $15. Cash Bar. Tickets can be found at Presents, Presents; Blue Heron Books or at the door if available.
