Winnie Brave is the husband and wife duo made up of Amy and Brad McIsaac. They are a two-man band of epic sonic proportions, which brings a soulful composite of roots and folk. This duo travel in their 1976 Winnebago, playing over 150 shows a year.

In 2012 Amy and Brad decided to bet the farm and take a chance. They sold their home, quit their day jobs, packed up their two dogs and committed to a life of music. Their journey led them to the deep South of Texas, in search of opportunity and inspiration. Influenced by the great Americana, Country, and Classic Rock bands of the past and present, their live show is nothing short of electric. Two people pouring out their heart and soul before your eyes. Armed with two guitars and ramshackle drum kit, Winnie Brave delivers a performance that draws you in and keeps you spellbound.

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.
