May we all immerse ourselves in Stan’s songs and remember his immense talent this week. June 2nd marked 40 years since his tragic passing. His songs and music are forever woven into the great Canadian cultural tapestry. We are honoured to have the privilege of gathering songwriters annually in Canso, a place that inspired him. Stan’s music continues to inspire and provide a launchpad for a whole new generation of songwriters. #stanrogers #foreverremembered #stanfest
Congratulations Alan Syliboy on the opening of your new Arts Studio in Millbrook! Alan has been a performer at past festivals and inspires so many of us in Nova Scotia's arts sector. It was great to see performances by Dave Gunning, Joel Plaskett, Morgan Toney and others yesterday, all joining in to celebrate the historic opening day. More info here: alansyliboy.ca/art-studio/
Throwback Thursday! We will never forget that moment when Natalie MacMaster and Donnell Leahy ripped the roof off with four of their children joining them on stage. Never has the power of family and passing music on to the next generation been so well demonstrated at Stanfest. – Troy Greencorn
Stanfest is thrilled to present Irish singer-songwriter Susan O'Neill, who will be on a cross-Canada festival tour playing folk festivals from Canso to Vancouver. Check her out here: youtu.be/nDLsFoyx6J4
