Saturday
4th Febuary, 2017
For our second concert of the year we are
delighted to welcome back Amanda Rheaume and her band to Town Hall
Live.
Amanda, from Ottawa, is an award winning artist with a powerful,
slightly gritty, deeply personal and instantly accessible folk-roots
sound.
Her increasing success in Canada, Europe and the UK stems from her
ability to translate personal stories into messages, evoking a feeling of
positivity to connect with her listeners.
In July, 2016 Amanda released her
fourth album 'Holding Patterns', which contains twelve descriptive songs some of
which champions her native Indian heritage (Red Dress, in particular), whilst
'The Day The Mountain Fell' tells the incredible survival of her two year old
cousin from a landslide.
Amanda is a star in Canada, having performed at
opening and closing ceremonies of several top sporting events. She has
spearheaded Bluebird North's songwriting showcase and performed for troops in
Afghanistan. In 2014 she was awarded the Canadian Folk Music Award and was
nominated for a Juno award for her album 'Catch A Fire'
In November 2016 she
toured Germany and Holland and now she is back in the UK for a 16 date tour.
She will be joined by ace guitarist Anders Drerup and Anna Ruddick on electric
and upright bass.
Support will come from Pocklington teenager Daisy Allen,
who released her debut EP 'Drift' in the summer of 2015, when she was just
16.
