Concert: Matthew deZoete, Luke Michielsen, Sarah Beatty, Sat Nov 30

Saturday November 30, 2013, at 8 pm, $12. dE ZOETE UNCHAINED! New songs by Matthew de Zoete. With special guests Luke Michielsen and Sarah Beatty.
Imagine Nick Drake cheering up a bit and living long enough to work with Beck. That’s the vision Matthew de Zoete conjured on his latest album Colour Film and took on tour all over North America and Europe. Now free from the shackles of the last album, he’s back with a band for a performance of all new and unreleased songs. www.matthewdezoete.com
Luke Michielsen‘s brand of indie-folk recalls Neil Young guitar themes mixed with Counting Crows vocals. Resident musician at Kitchener hotspot Imbibe Food/Drink, this singer songwriter has two solo albums and a third on the way. If you like sincere and sometimes deadpan between song banter, then he’s your new favourite Canadian folk singer. Check out his new videos here http://lukemichielsen.com/music-videos/
Sarah Beatty writes contemplative folk songs with spacious arrangements. She deftly occupies the space between country, blues, jazz, and soulful roots – leaving nothing extraneous or cluttered. Her music shines with her dynamic vocals, expressive lyrics, and engaging melodies. The result is a sonic landscape that is cohesive, completely familiar, and yet all her own. www.sarahbeatty.ca
