It promises to be a fiddling-and-stepdancing good time when April Verch takes to the stage at Shadbolt Centre for the Arts.
The Canadian fiddler-singer-songwriter-stepdancer takes to the stage in the Studio Theatre at 8 p.m. on Saturday, Nov. 5.
A press release promises that you'll be struck first by Verch's energy, then drawn in by her winsome singing, the elegance of her phrasing and the depth of the repertoire that runs the gamut from bluegrass to Brazilian to Celtic to Canadian folksongs.
On her eighth CD, That's How We Run, Verch is exploring Southern traditions from the Appalachian mountains, side-by-side with Canadian tunes - all in the spirit of her love of music.
"The world is this amazing puzzle that we can't fully understand, and music is the joy that pulls it all together and helps us make sense of it," Verch says in a bio on her website.
