Toronto’s Winterfolk XVI festival – which runs from February 16-18, 2018, will present a jam-packed night of music as a teaser to the upcoming all-ages, mid-winter, weatherproof urban blues and roots festival.
Every year the Winterfolk Blues and Roots Festival engages in special preview performances that showcase some of the finest emerging and established talent the city has to offer. We want audiences to get a glimpse of what will be on offer for the upcoming festival.
Acoustic Harvest has been a huge supporter and presenter for the festival and continues its tradition of featuring the finest local, national and international acoustic roots talent, all in cozy setting that (in
tandem with Winterfolk values), fosters the building of friendships, community spirit and a love of music and the arts. Hosted by Acoustic Harvest Artistic Director Lillian Wauthier, artists will perform two sets in the round, which will include kick-in-the-pants, harmony-driven roots trio Dirty Dishes, finger-style guitarists Brian Gladstone w/Tony Quarrington, hillbilly swing duo HOTCHA!, Juno Award-winning, barrelhouse blues man Julian Fauth, purveyor of vintage Americana, Mr. Rick, and singer-songwriter Brighid Fry of the duo Moscow Apartment.
