We’re lucky to have such a strong music community in Ottawa, and it’s a pleasure to showcase it.
You know when you hear a band and think, how have I never heard of them before?
We’ve got a whole summer of that!
Here’s the lineup for Sept 5, 6PM to 9PM, at the Hog’s Back Grill & Bistro:
C.A. & Sonny (1st pic)
An Ottawa-based duo focused on preserving the tradition of Folk music. Using stringed instruments, C.A. & Sonny sing songs, crack jokes, and tell tales of yesteryear.
I hadn't personally seen C.A. & Sonny play, but I had heard so many good things about them, I was actually surprised they saw my message when I reached out to them, let alone accept to headline the last event of the season! It's an honor to get to host these two local favorites!
Cattail Creek (2nd pic)
Folk rock mixed with alt-country, blues, rockabilly, and bluegrass. Lively, foot-stomping music built for campfire sing-alongs and kitchen parties.
Bram from Cattail Creek reached out to me as we started releasing our headliners this year and seemed like the perfect fit for our folk evening. I got to see them at the Black Sheep while learning the sound system there as a sound tech. Definitely a good time coming!
Stephen Hardy Palmer (3rd pic)
From opening for The Who and Led Zeppelin to earning a spin on Stuart McLean's Vinyl Café, Stephen Hardy Palmer has had a long career inspired by folk legends like Lightfoot, Tyson, and Joni Mitchell.
Every performance I've seen from Stephen has been a delight. Seeing someone of his caliber casually joining jams and local open mics is always special, and I couldn't resist inviting him to open our final folk evening of the BistroFest season.
Next week, May 16, BistroFest officially begins 🌅

We made it Nova Scotia, n’ are so very excited to see all the buds, n’ meet new buds, n’ play music with buds, n’ drink beer with buds, smoke cigs, n’ all that shit.
Lake Of Stew rocks. Of course, they haven’t been playing for a long while now, but we still listen to ‘em regularly. We’ll be playing this one with @themcmillanscampboys someday soon when we finally get to making our super group, n’ definitely with the @sunday.night.revue crew once we’re back in town.
Ok. Hope to see all you buds before leaving the Maritimes. Love you! Bye!
