Saturday July 11, 2015, at 8 pm, $10. “Brilliant and lyrically impactful vocalist” singer-songwriter Orit Shimoni swings by Artword Artbar. On the road full time for nearly seven years now, this fiercely independent songstress has been writing and singing her way into the hearts, minds and souls of fans across the globe. 
With five full-length albums, all highly acclaimed and radio charting, and a new EP in hand, Shimoni is defiantly proving there’s a place for ‘smart’ in the world of song. She even has a sense of humour. “Playing impressive fingerstyle guitar, she commands a vocal wallop and her intense, singer-songwriter material covers a lot of ground.” – Roots Music Canada. www.oritshimoni.comWith an opening set by one of our favourite singer-songwriters, Dave Pomfret. Dave’s solo debut album NO RUSH (Mike Trebilcock, Producer) has garnered high praise from Hamilton’s music community, including 2009 Hamilton Music Awards Nominee for Male Artist of the Year and Folk/Roots Record of the Year. “On his first solo effort, Dave Pomfret demonstrates a mature songwriting craft that blends a rootsy grit with a natural pop sensibility.” – Graham Rockingham. http://www.davepomfretmusic.com/
