This Wednesday, October 14, 9--11:30 p.m., at Folk Night at
The Ship Pub in St. John's, Newfoundland, the headliners
will be acoustic blues duo Denis Parker and John Clarke.
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
http://nlfolk.com/folknight.php# :
Denis Parker is all about the blues, and whether it's standards or
original tunes, Denis delivers with 100% authority and conviction every
time. Most folks would agree he has been the bedrock of the St. John's
blues scene for the last 30 years and shows no sign of stopping! It's
too late to stop now anyway! John Clarke is an acoustic guitarist and a
lap style dobroist whose slide style draws from old bluegrass, Hawaiian
and country music, with a more-than-generous shot of the blues
throughout.
Next week (October 21) the headliners will be folk trio
Atlantic Union.
