Sat, May 20th, 8-10pm, Concert – Pierre Schryer, Martin Nolan and Adam Dobres TRIO- Celtic

Authentic Irish and French-Canadian music

“Three exceptional artists from three rich cultural traditions - a high energy performance that you won’t soon forget.”

It is a rare and very special occasion when these three fine musicians get together to play music.  Pierre makes a yearly trip from Ontario to BC near Adam’s home on Pender Island, while Martin comes every 2 years from Ireland to visit the West Coast.  Although the time between collaborations is long, when these exceptional artists do unite it is a high quality and magical experience.

Pierre Schryer is one of Canada’ leading traditional fiddlers.  He has established himself as a gem on the music scene among fans and fellow musicians and is a JUNO nominee and Canadian Folk Music nominee.  For over two decades Pierre has been touring across North America, the UK and Ireland headlining festivals and captivating audiences with his musical finesse, genuine warmth, and stunning technical ability in any style from Irish, Scottish and Québecois, to Canadian, American, and Swing.

Martin Nolan is an Irish uilleann piper whose energetic and passionate performing has taken him throughout Europe, the UK, India, Australia, New Zealand, the USA and Canada.

Adam Dobres is a highly accomplished guitarist with a natural ability to embody many styles of music.  He is equally at home with Bluegrass, Celtic, Jazz, Country, Folk, Old Time, Rock and Blues.  His love of the electric and acoustic guitar has taken him around the globe, performing throughout North America, Europe, Australia, and New Zealand.
