After a huge success last Saturday with the Triology concert kicking off the second annual Summer Sessions, the Bowen Island Arts Council (BIAC) will bring more live music starting this Saturday from 3 p.m. for the next four weeks and these concerts are offered to the public free of charge.
“Summer Sessions really is a great way of bringing the community together and as the arts council we would like to help promote our local artists as much as possible. We had great responses from last year’s concerts and we would love to have our local bands playing this year again,” says Jacqueline Massey, BIAC’s executive director.
Playing this weekend are two lead musicians from the band Thereafter. The band’s debut release Ceremony has received great recognition and responses.
“The couple at the core, Neil Hammond (guitar and vocals) and Keona Hammond (flute and vocals), deliver a ‘two-headed’ synergy to the songs and instrumentals on Ceremony, most of which are self-penned,” writes Cal Koat from World Beat Canada.
Their performance will be taking place by the Rotary Stage beside the Snug Café at 3 p.m. What a great idea to bring your friends and family to sit back and enjoy some music on a sunny Saturday afternoon!
