On two other occasions, the audience at the Joshua Bates Centre, in Athens Ontario saw a star in the making. They knew they had made a connection with a lad who was going places and they would be able to say they “knew him when”. This happened for the third time on Saturday, January 28th when Tristan Horncastle performed for them. This personable, down to earth Maritimer did an acoustic show accompanied by guitarist Brad Bailey. We learned about his life through songs from his first CD, “A Little Bit of Alright” and his recent CD, “Turnin Up a Sundown” which are available on his website.
Dallas Smith with Cold Creek County – CNE 2015
Let me start by saying, it was a hot one Sunday night at the CNE! With temps hitting the 30’s you might expect the bands to take it easy. Not so! Cold Creek County came out and gave it their all getting the crowd “warmed” up for Dallas Smith.
CNE 2015 | Autumn Hill and Rick Springfield
Autumn Hill
It may seem like an unlikely pairing, Autumn Hill with Rick Springfield but it worked. I wouldn’t necessarily expect these two audiences to cross over but it didn’t really seem like anyone left when Autumn Hill finished their set. And for me, it was a fantastic pairing. Thanks to the person at the CNE who’s responsible for this lineup!
