BEGIN:VCALENDAR VERSION:1.0 TZ:-07 BEGIN:VEVENT SUMMARY:Victoria Folk Music Society presents: Jake Galbraith URL:http://www.harbourliving.ca/event/victoria-folk-music-society-presents-jake-galbraith/ LOCATION:Norway House :: 1110 Hillside Ave Victoria, DESCRIPTION;ENCODING=QUOTED-PRINTABLE:

Do you remember how it felt the first time you heard a great song by Joni Mitchell, Gordon Lightfoot, Ian and Sylvia, Stan Rogers, or Valdy? The quintessentially Canadian vibe that our finest songwriters set in motion has propelled the folk movement to where we are today, with a forty-year-old VFMS and dozens of compelling singer-songwriters populating our stages. Tonight, Jake Galbraith performs a selection of great songs, both new and old, by Canadian artists. Come prepared to sing along.

Jake has been a singer and multi-instrumentalist for over 50 years. He was active in the VFMS off and on from the mid-1970s to the mid-2000s, on stage, and serving as our society's feature booker for a number of years. He currently lives on Gabriola Island.

________________________
Our feature act will be preceded by what is arguably Victoria’s best weekly acoustic Open Stage session where musicians from fledglings to professionals can perform a 10 minute set for one of the most welcoming, attentive and participative audiences in town. Aspiring Open Stage performers can sign-up with the VFMS Host between 7:00 and 7:30pm to do a set but should get there early to improve their chances of getting on the evening’s line-up.
