Terry Gorman needs our help and in return we will enjoy a fantastic night of music!

If you go out just once this week, make it down to Dolan’s Pub on Wednesday night in support of Terry Gorman! Terry has worked on tech crew for Signature Sound for 15 years – if you have seen a show or played on a stage done by Signature, then odds are Terry was a huge part of making it all happen.
He is now fighting the battle of his life and his friends are helping fundraise to cover medical and living expenses.

In exchange for your donation you will be served up some fantastic music by the following 4 great bands:

Sugar Bomb – A 6-piece musical party bringing about the joyful revival of the dynamo sound – MOTOWN & SOUL.

Mountain Chicken – Loud! Rock and Roll Countrified Folk Blues sort of stuff
mc 2
The Belle Comedians – Melodic folk rock from Fredericton with a lot of heart, some drunken bravado and more than enough melodies to keep their hybrid sound afloat.

Ryan Leblanc creates beautiful music and is amazing to watch!

Don’t miss your chance Fredericton! The amazingly talented Ryan Leblanc will be playing at Cedar Tree Café tomorrow night (Wednesday) and Owen Steel is the opener! Ryan is totally mesmerizing to watch and its fun to just try and figure out how he’s creating those sounds!

“Delivering a “see it to believe it” performance, NB instrumentalist Ryan Leblanc will be releasing his third full length album – Solitude –  this spring, with a slew of dates around the maritime provinces.  Produced by Chris Colpaugh, Leblanc’s latest effort is simply, and as expected, a unique and beautiful approach to sound. With his trademark percussive technique on the guitar and banjo, along with occasional melodies on harmonica, Ryan achieves incredibly full and  mesmerizing songs.”

Do yourself a favour and spend your Wednesday night out – you won’t regret it!
