SUMMARY:Pat Moore and Pat MacLaughlin – Art House Music Concert
DESCRIPTION:Pat Moore and Pat McLaughlin are two Canadian musicians who frequently collaborate\, often performing together as a duo or with other musicians in the bluegrass and folk music scene. Pat McLaughlin plays guitar and provides vocal harmonies for Pat Moore\, who is a singer-songwriter.\nPat Moore’s voice has a warm and expressive quality\, as perfectly suited to a rich ballad\, as it is to an up-tempo power song.  She moves easily from the storytelling of the singer/songwriter genre\, to the lonesome sound of traditional country and bluegrass. Born and raised in Ottawa\, Ontario\, she grew up in a house filled with music\, from show tunes to Peter\, Paul\, & Mary\, and Gordon Lightfoot; and later jazz masters like Ella Fitzgerald and Ray Charles to bluegrass legends like Bill Monroe\, and Flatt and Scruggs. As a young girl she would sing harmonies with her sisters while doing the supper dishes – songs from the Momas and Papas\, and Simon and Garfunkel.\nThey are both associated with other musicians like Ann Downey and have performed at various Ontario festivals and venues\, such as the Ottawa Grassroots Festival. \n“Audiences delight in Pat Moore’s radiant stage presence and warm\,\nexpressive voice. She writes\, plays and sings from the heart\, delivering strong stories of life andlove we long to hear again… and again… and again!”\nChris White\, Host\, Canadian Spaces\, CKCU. &Founding Artistic Director\, Ottawa Folk Festival\n“Pat McLaughlin is one of the most tasteful and masterful guitar/mandolin B y : players you’ll hear- ever!” Everyone who’s Heard Him \nhttps://www.patmoore.net/

SUMMARY:Nathan Sloniowski Trio Benefit Concert
DESCRIPTION:A benefit concert at the Carleton Place Gallery featuring The Nathan Sloniowski Trio is raising funds for the Carleton Place Youth Centre. Nathan (guitar and vocals)\, Bill Serson (drums) and Barry Buse (bass and vocals) will be performing songs from Nathan’s acclaimed solo album\, The Lost Love Letter to a Small Town. \nNathan also plays with The Ragged Flowers and The Maywoods so may sneak in a couple of tunes he contributes to those bands. Tickets for the Sat. Dec. 6\, 7PM show are available at Ticketsplease.ca or at the gallery\, and all funds raised from tickets and performance-night edibles prepared by youth centre volunteers go directly to the centre. \n“I approached Ginny Fobert\, the owner and human cultural spark-plug at the Carleton Place Gallery about doing a Christmas benefit\,” said Nathan. “I’d played there earlier this year with The Ragged Flowers\, and it’s a magical place for a show among the paintings and sculptures. Ginny was instantly supportive\, and suggested that the band direct funds from our concert to the Carleton Place Youth Centre\, which her research showed is often overlooked by local fundraisers.” \nGinny set up a meeting for Nathan to meet with Sharon Ruth\, the Executive Director of the Carleton Place Youth Centre\, and Nathan was “blown away by the programming there\,” with after-school drop-ins Tuesdays\, Wednesdays and Fridays\, evening crafts and cooking programs\, summer camps and special outings throughout the year for 8 to 15 year-old children. The gallery is also supporting Three-Fifty Squares\, a special holiday exhibition featuring a diverse selection of original 12×12 $350 artworks and sculptures\, with 10% of all proceeds also being donated to the Youth Centre. \nNathan’s original compositions blend the groove of Jesse Winchester with the down-to-earth wit and wisdom of John Prine. In his latest album\, The Lost Love Letter to a Small Town\, Nathan spins artfully crafted tales of neighbourly kindness\, hopeless romanticism\, community rivalries\, guitar obsession\, and aspirations for a better world that starts with the world we create at home. \nCarleton Place’s Barry Buse and Bill Serson from Arnprior make up the band’s rhythm section. “Barry and Bill helped me launch the album at a sold-out folkus concert series show in 2024\, and we played another sold-out show to kick off last Fall’s Music at MERA Series in McDonald’s Corners\,” said Nathan. “They’re incredible musicians.” \nBarry’s a road-tested bassist who’s played gospel and blues legend Diunna Greenleaf\, and toured North America and Australia with stops at major festivals from Ottawa BluesFest to the Tremblant International Blues Festival with Trevor Finlay. Bill teaches percussion at Arnprior’s Main Street School of Music\, and his students have gone on to study music at the university level then launch amazing careers. He is a two-time Canadian Snare Drum Champion and brings a highly musical mastery influenced by legends like Buddy Rich and Steve Gadd. \n“Bill and Barry are also well-known throughout the Ottawa Valley for their blues band Redneck Limousine\,” said Nathan. “Though they like to tease me that I use up all their feelings when we play my acoustic repertoire\, I’m really grateful whenever we get to play together and I think they have a lot more feelings than they let on!” \nConcert presenters have shared their own feelings about the band. Violet Bova from the folkus Concert Series wrote that “Nathan’s voice is as haunting as the tale he just told. It’s enough to tempt tears to start falling\,” while Peter Cochrane\, from Music at MERA said\, “The band was tight and Nathan was in the groove. It was a great live show and a wonderful kick-off to our Fall series.”

SUMMARY:Lynne Hanson At Carleton Place Gallery
DESCRIPTION:The Art House Music Seriesdoors 6:30pm | music 7pm\nToo tough for folk and too blues-influenced for country\, LYNNE HANSON’s brand of porch music with a little red dirt can turn on a dime from a sunshine\, blue sky ballad to a full on thunderstorm of gritty Americana swamp from one song to the next. Her hard living music has garnered her the nickname “Canada’s own Queen of Americana.” And while her deep\, bluesy croon has drawn comparisons to Lucinda Williams and Gillian Welch\, it’s the poetry of her lyrics that really sets her apart.\nA two-time Canadian Folk Music Award winner\, Hanson is known for her high energy\, roots guitar driven live performances\, whether playing solo or with her band the Good Intentions. She has an uncanny way of connecting with her audience with an authenticity that is as entertaining as it is disarming.\nArtist website: http://www.lynnehanson.comYouTube: http://www.youtube.com/lynnehansonInstagram: https://www.instagram.com/plynnehansonTwitter: https://twitter.com/lynnehansonFacebook: https://www.facebook.com/lynnehansonmusic
