I. Native Education College celebrates it's 50th year! Alumni, past and present students, faculty, board, staff and friends are coming together to mark this momentous occasion and we are part of the entertainment line up! I hope to see some of my former students and colleagues and looking forward to setting the vibe with some original tunes. If you haven't already please RSVP at NEC.
II. Friday Night Live is a very cool place to come and experience music and artists up close. Held in the beautiful Lynn Valley United Church 3201 Mountain Hwy. Fridays 7:30 Doors and Show 8 to 9 pm We attended last week and heard the amazingly talented Chersea perform! FNL is Lynn Valley’s only regularly-scheduled, inspiring storytelling and musical experience perfect for all ages. Life. Stories. Music. An inspiring community experience. Every Friday during the season $10 at the door They have a question and answer segment so if you have any burning questions for me do come to the show and ask :). We play this Friday Sept. 29!
III. Riding the Rails is almost here woo hoo!! A snippet from the press release: " Norine Braun brings her bluesy roots rock alongside partner and accompanist Alice Fraser onboard the Via Rail Artist On Board Program. Norine and Alice travel from Vancouver to Toronto October 6 and October 10 and Montreal to Halifax October 22 to 23. Braun’s scheduled shows are in Toronto at Junction City Music Hall with Kylie Precepa and Vivien Shepherd October 11, in Ottawa at Avante-Garde Bar October 15 with Lindsay Thomson, on Oct. 18 La Sacrilege Bar Quebec City including live broadcast and interview on CKRL 89.1 FM at 6 pm and then a show at 8 pm a block down Rue St. Jean at the historic Fou-Bar in Quebec City, a private concert in Montreal Oct. 20 and the grand finale October 25 at The Carleton in Halifax one of Canada's premiere 'listening rooms' and has featured a who's-who of the Canadian (and international) music scene."
IV. I am way beyond thrilled to announce that I am accepted as a Musician in Residence at the prestigious Banff Centre for Arts and Creativity in November and December where I will be songwriting my forthcoming album! A beautiful and inspiring place that I can't wait to create new songs in. Feeling truly honoured and blessed these days.
Please do come out to hear us plav if you are near any of these fine venues and make sure you tell your friends who live nearby to come too. See you soon my friend!
Love, Norine
"No review would be complete without mentioning just how sensational her voice is. It's as though when she's on stage she gets possessed through music, her voice is so full of dulcet authority she creates a cacophony of righteous femininity." Amelia V on the Norine Braun Chronicles Part 2
