This Wednesday, June 15, 9--11:30 p.m., at Folk Night at
The Ship Pub in St. John's, Newfoundland, the headliners
will be RAD (Rich, Aaron, Doug).
Cover is $5, there are door prizes, there is an open
mic set between the two headline sets, and open mic
performers get a free beer. Also the kitchen is open
until 8 p.m.
Here is the blurb from
https://www.facebook.com/nlfolk/events:
"It's RAD...it's TRAD...it's gonna be MAD!
But seriously..these guys are killers....
Rich Klaas (percussion), Aaron Collis (accordion) and Doug Dorward (fiddle)
are RAD, a trio based in St. John’s.
Rich, from Dartmouth Nova Scotia, is the percussion player with local band
The Dardanelles. Aaron, from Appleton Newfoundland, plays accordion with the Dardanelles, Rum Ragged, and in duos with both Duane Andrews and Emilia Bartellas. Doug, from Dundee Scotland, has lived in St. John’s for the last two years, and is working on his first album of Scottish and Newfoundland fiddle tunes.
Expect a high energy evening of tunes and songs from Newfoundland, Scotland, Ireland and beyond, with perhaps one or two guest appearances throughout the night. It’s going to be RAD!“
Next week (June 22) the headliners will be acoustic blues duo Denis Parker
and John Clarke, andthe week after (June 29) there will be a
traditional session hosted by flute and tin whistle player Gerry Strong,
and the week after that (July 6) The Freels will headline.
