Originally from Moncton, New Brunswick, Aaron Murray has painstakingly whittled a catalogue of finely crafted song and story over the last 25 years. Bluegrass, old-time, folk, and country music influence this all-originals playlist: an homage to the back-home dance halls and kitchen parties from whence sprang Aaron's musicality.

Members include Aaron Ellingsen (fiddle), Alan Law (National resophonic guitar), Norbert Poitras (bass guitar), Larry Statland (electric guitar), Dale Hitchcox (percussion); all riding shotgun to Aaron, who will be strumming guitar and mandolin. Come and share and revel in this Canadiana journey that is the Aaron Murray Project.

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.
