Come join us for an incredible concert event! We have a powerhouse dual bill concert featuring Madison Violet and Terra Spencer. All proceeds from the evening are going to One Kids Place Children's Treatment Centre. One Kids Place is a non-profit children’s treatment centre that actively strives to provide quality community-based rehabilitation and support services for children and youth (up to the age of 19) and their families living in the Districts of Muskoka, Nipissing and Parry Sound. The evening will also feature a silent auction of items donated by local businesses and artisans with all funds also going to One Kids Place. Doors will open at 6 P.M. for viewing and bidding of the auction items.

Madison Violet is a Canadian Juno-nominated female musical duo, consisting of Lisa MacIsaac and Brenley MacEachern.

The pair, who both have roots in rural Cape Breton, came together musically in the late 1990s. Influenced by their maritime heritage, Brenley and Lisa began creating music together that had roots firmly planted in their past, but with contemporary and modern elements generously overlaid. Categorizing Madison Violet’s music is an impossible task, in that one can hear elements of folk, singer-songwriter, pop, indie, bluegrass, and country flawlessly interwoven throughout.MacIsaac and MacEachern are exceptional story tellers, skilled multi-instrumentalists, and together, perfect harmonists. Their voices soar, perfectly complimenting each other, as they sing lyrics that will both mend and break your heart. The musicians have received dozens of notable accolades for their work, including a JUNO nomination for Roots & Traditional Album of the Year. They have brought home a Canadian Folk Music Award for Best Vocal Group Album of the Year, have reached the top 5 on the Canadian iTunes download charts, amassed over one million streams on Spotify, and have placed on CBC’s Top 20 multiple times throughout their career.

Terra Spencer is an award winning musician who calls Windsor, Nova Scotia home. She'll be making her return to North Bay after her inaugural North Bay show this past October. Bad ideas, VCRs, crumbling factories, terrible therapists, hairy dogs, wrinkled shirts, French fries, questionable tattoos...all are fair game for Nova Scotian funeral director-turned-songwriter Terra Spencer. And the songs are good ones, judging from the stack of awards her albums have received, and from the caliber of her collaborators, which include David Francey, Ben Caplan, and Matt Andersen. Although her butterscotch voice, deft fingerstyle guitar, and gospel-charged piano make her a formidable musician, it's her onstage ease and crackling wit that make each show feel like a knee-to-knee conversation in a room of 5 or 500. Terra was most recently awarded Penguin Eggs Roots Music Canada Critics’ Albums of the Year for 'Sunset (tie with Julian Taylor for ‘Pathways’)

This concert is part of the East Coaster Studios presents series. The concert series was started by Jamie Carruthers, a Science/ Biology teacher in North Bay who has recently ventured into the world of art, pottery and concert promotion.
