Rex Hobart and The Honky Tonk Standards
09:00pm - 12:00am

Their songs are right out of the Buck Owens songbook, and will break your heart, if you have one. They're decidedly reverent, but definitely not an aping museum piece, either. You have not heard straight up honky tonk done like this in decades. www.myspace.com/rexhobartandthemiseryboys

The Fabulous Ginn Sisters
08:00pm - 11:00pm

The Fabulous Ginn Sisters have made a career of breaking hearts in clubs across North America. Their already constant touring schedule recently ballooned to include touring as part of the Fred Eaglesmith Band. Backing up the iconic Indie artist led to a collaboration with Eaglesmith’s band in their opening sets. Eaglesmith was struck by the new band’s rough, rawboned sound and invited them to record the new Fabulous Ginn Sisters CD in his Port Dover, Ontario studio. The result is a smoky, drunken stumble through a broken-heart junkyard.

Makuza
08:00pm - 11:00pm

A profound connection with Afro Latin music along with a constant desire for breaking new ground are the fuels behind this highly successfull and fast moving Afro-Latin combo. As seen in their bios, each member is highly acclaimed in many diverse fields of music, which comes through in their songs very clearly. At a typical show, in less than an hour, one is likely to hear (among others) traditional African music, Salsa, Cha-Cha-Cha, Samba, and Funk.

Grand Marquis

The Grand Marquis have that classic, timeless 'straight-from-the-Kansas City-speakeasy' sound while injecting a vibrant relevance into their brand of hot swinging jazz & jumping blues. Versatile and buoyant, distinct and refreshing - a rhythm cocktail served by masterful musical mixologists
