If you would like to forget it’s winter for a bit, join us in the cosy atmosphere of our living room on SATURDAY, JANUARY 17 for an evening of music infused with Cape Breton roots, West African drumming, Cuban sounds, jazz…..it won’t be cold in here I assure you!
Keith Mullins brings a broad range of talents to every project. He moves effortlessly from guitar to drums, from folk to Cuban music to jazz, from the stage to the classroom, from creation to performance to production, from the road to the farm….remaining focused and enthusiastic all the while. Keith was part of the Basinview Rocks project which raised money for the school’s playground. His newest release, Island Sol, is a documentary/album collaboration between Keith and some stellar Cuban musicians recorded at the famous Egrem Studios in Havana, Cuba. Island Sol made the Coast’s Top 20 Albums of 2014.
Keith will be joined by Silvio Pupo. Born in Holguin, Cuba, Silvio studied music in Cuba and became a piano teacher before moving to Canada where he has become one of the most sought after jazz pianists in the region. He has two best Jazz albums of the year from the ECMAs.
Show starts at 8 pm. We’ll be passing the hat at the break (suggesting $20 per person – 100 % goes to the artists, as usual). We’d love it if you RSVP’d – it helps us plan. And we’d love it if you tell all your music-loving friends about Patchwork and bring them with you to a show.
Non-alcoholic beverages will be offered. You are invited to take along any wine/beer/etc. that you wish to enjoy. There will be a selection of munchies at the break. Contributions to the munchies table will be shared happily although not required.
RSVP to mleblanc.patchwork@gmail.com or by calling 902 434-8355.
