Description
Celebrate Canada's 141st birthday with this all-star celebration of the Great Canadian Songbook, produced and emcee'd by Jeff Breithaupt and featuring a stellar international line-up singing the greatest hits of our neighbors to the north. Join Canadian legend Carole Pope, BETTY's Alyson Palmer and Tony Salvatore, jazz chanteuse Kate McGarry, guitarist Keith Ganz, singer-songwriter Greg Naughton, Irish rocker Joe Hurley, actress Shelley McPherson, the all-star "Workin' for the Weekend House Band," and many more surprise guests, as they lay down unforgettable versions of all your favorite Canuck anthems. From Cohen to Cockburn, Joni to Gino, Lightfoot to Lighthouse, Nellie to Neil, Rufus to Raffi, B.T.O. to k.d. lang, the Cowboy Junkies to the Crash Test Dummies, Barenaked Ladies to Men Without Hats, you never know whose songs you might hear. We've looked at the border from Both Sides Now, and we're going to Share The Land north of the 49th with this town's Sweet City Women and Sk8er Boi's alike. Sure, Life Is a (Carefree) Highway, but on July 1, life is happening at 425 Lafayette Street. So, come on, Old Man, grab Mimi from the Beach, and take a Magic Carpet Ride down to Astor Place for the year's rocking-est birthday bash! Think you know The Great Canadian Songbook? You Ain't [Heard] Nothin Yet.
