September 30
Tiller's Folly

Reception 6 pm
Concert 7 pm

"As one of the tightest, and unflinchingly focused, folk bands in the nation, Tiller’s Folly continues to produce music that is both distinctly Canadian and firmly rooted in the Celtic tradition. Songwriter and lead singer Bruce Coughlan has mined the colourful history of the Pacific Northwest with the help of curators and historians, and successfully turns yesterday’s adventures and yarns into engaging tunes built around rock-solid arrangements and outstanding instrumental interplay."

"Working in acrylics on canvas, Rick blends vibrant colors with thought-provoking themes. His love for texture is always evident whether through a thick full brush stroke, contrasting colors, or an image sculpted on the canvas beneath the paint."
