Harmony Bazaar Sampler

Last night there was a concert entitled "A Harmony Bazaar Sampler", held at the Beach Centre. Performers were Irish Mythen, Christine Crawford and Katelyn Surette, all of whom will be appearing at this year's festival July 24-26.

The music was almost all their own compositions - haunting, moving, lively. Irish is a local favourite (although she's from Ireland and currently lives in Canso), having performed at the last 3 Harmony Bazaars, and did her usual superb job of getting the crowd involved. Christine performed a few years ago at the first Harmony Bazaar - she has a lovely voice, good lyrics, and plays both guitar and keyboard. The surprise was Katelyn, a young girl from Yarmouth, who is shaping up as an awesome singer/songwriter/musician.
Irish Mythen

There were between 30 and 40 people there, with a wine/beer bar, and light refreshments. The venue is ideal for small concerts - great acoustics and, as Irish said, so awesome with the sea crashing outside the windows.

A great evening.
