SCOTT COOPER, with his clear, honest voice and deceptively simple lyrics and music, Scott Cooper plays and sings bright, catchy, back-to-basics pop songs with a lilting alt-country twang.  After 10 years playing music in Toronto and across southwestern Ontario, this ex-Midland, ex-Torontonian, now Midlander again is thrilled to be back home.  Come on out to celebrate his music and return to the area

THE GOOD LOVELIES are not your run-of-the-mill, “all girl” band.  Armed with a pike of instruments, a repertoire of sassy and sophisticated songs, effortless three part harmony and an effervescent sense of humour they never fail to charm and delight audiences.  At a time when too many of us are affected by gloom, doom and advancing recession, these three women are the perfect antidote.  Not to be missed!

Doors open at 6.30 pm.  Concert begins at 7.15 pm

Tickets are available at the door:  $10 for Adults, $5 for Students and Children.
