February 25
On Friday, February 25, join us again at the Hummingbird Restaurant for:
- Tom McHarg
- Sean Gregg
· Sean Gregg -- a modern day BARD from TerraceSean was born in Vancouver but has spent most of his time in the Pacific Northwest so considers himself “of the North”. He started as a drummer in a rock-and-roll band in high school and soon added vocals and back-up harmonies. Sean toured in the 70’s, but disco made it hard for live musicians to make a living, so he returned home to settle and raise a family. Continuing to play with local bands, Sean took up Bass and Rhythm Guitar. To be more versatile, he’s currently working on Dobro and Mandolin. The Irish in him brought poetry to the mix, so early on Sean was writing poems and setting them to music. Sean’s life experience has added the spice that gives a flavour to his music that will please your musical palate, entertain your heart and probably give you an appetite for more.
- One Night Trio and Friend
