Join us on Friday evening for a rousing-good-time concert featuring a well know Canadian ukulele duo, Transit Lounge, featuring Cynthia Kinnunen on uke and Ben Coulson on u-bass. With a love of everything from rockabilly to old-time tunes, pop, folk and some trusty rock & roll for good measure they are sure to entertain. Also featured at the concert is Vancouver Island’s own Sylvia Humble, a singer songwriter with a passion for bringing people together through song.
