Fri, Aug 14th , 8-10pm, Concert – John Gogo + Blue Sky Miners – August Islands Tour
Western Canadian singer/songwriter John Gogo will be touring summer 2015 with Toronto folk rock band, Blue Sky Miners. The tour will promote John Gogo's 5th release ‘Coal & Wood (Revisited)’. The album includes performances by Canadian folk music icons David Essig and Rick Scott. John’s new album received recent praise from The Province Newspaper, who listed it in their ‘Top Ten BC Made CDs’ of the year, describing it as “music that has a sense of place and time and is stronger for it” and comparing John to Gordon Lightfoot. Blue Sky Miners (featuring John’s daughter Jena Gogo) will be touring in support of their up-coming debut release featuring the single, “Cold Water”. They’ll be backing John as well as doing a set of their own outstanding songs.
