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 three 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. “The real deal.” - Ron Sexsmith

This is the first in what will hopefully be many Concert events in the East Coaster Studios presents series and we have the talented Terra Spencer from Nova Scotia. Terra is an award-winning singer-songwriter who has worked with the likes of David Francey, Ben Caplan, Matt Andersen, Stephen Fearing and Dave Gunning. She is touring through Ontario promoting her phenomenal new album, Sunset. 

As an added bonus we have local musician, Connor Carruthers, who is relatively new to the music scene making his North Bay debut opening the show. The show is being held at Wildwoods Brewery so you come early and have dinner and a drink before the show!
