Get your tickets early for this special event that is sure to sell out! Barney Bentall has been touring in support of his latest album, Cosmic Dreamer, with support from Wild Honey.

Barney Bentall's Cosmic Dreamer includes 9 original songs and 2 covers - Bob Dylan’s “You’re Gonna Make Me Lonesome When You Go” and Gordon Lightfoot’s “Shadows.” Bentall had always loved the Dylan song and his voice bears some resemblance to that of its creator in it, though it’s nicely counterpointed by the vocal contribution from Trapani — who had previously performed the number with Bentall in Italy. Bentall had performed “Shadows” as part of a multi-artist tribute in Toronto that Lightfoot attended, and he says the song has always spoken to him in terms of what it’s like to be a travelling musician learning how to deal with life and love after coming off of the road. Cosmic Dreamer is by and large a slow and gentle album with an overarching element of melancholy running through it. Bentall didn’t intentionally set out with that in mind, but that’s how things came out and he thought the songs tied together well.

Listening to the 11 songs on Cosmic Dreamer, there’s no rust in Bentall’s voice and his songwriting remains evocative and incisive. He may have just turned 65, but retirement isn’t yet in the cards for the man who first came to national attention fronting The Legendary Hearts in 1988. Bentall still has “something to live for,” to borrow the title of an early hit, and we look forward to whatever he decides to do next.

Wild Honey is an all-female roots trio based in the East Kootenays. The band of busy mothers has been together for a decade, and have released their second album, an EP titled ‘Let’s Be Cowboys’. Recorded and produced by Canadian music legend Barney Bentall, the songs are compiled and delivered with gentle grace. Always inspired by their mountain towns and love of the outdoors, Shelby, Jessica, and Laura were searching for a sound that celebrated these passions. The album is a love letter to their daughters – 8 in total – celebrating their unique strengths and ability to shatter the stereotypical female roles expected of them.
