Jim Bryson

Let There Be Shows!!!

Eggplant — Mon, 06 Feb 2012 17:02:53 +0000

We realize Jim is at home with the family for the next couple of months, but sometimes he just can’t sit still. He will be heading out and playing a few shows over the next couple of month while they welcome (eventually) a new addition. At “press time”, Lisa was sitting 5 days overdue. They have tried many of the inducing clichés, but still they wait. Here is the news we can present:

IN THE DEAD OF WINTER WAKEFIELD:

A festival started almost a decade ago in Halifax in a time when music shows were rare and people were hungry. Heather Gibson and a group of volunteers decided to launch the In The Dead of Winter Festival. All those years ago, Heather asked Jim to be a part almost from the ground up and it is only natural that Jim would play a Wakefield version of this festival. His connection to both the festival and The Black Sheep Inn make it a natural fit.

Local performances this year are will be very few & Jim will be joined by Joey Wright in what could be called a “No Grass” Duo. Also on the bill is the 2010 Galaxy Rising Star Award recipient Kim Wempe and Danielle Duval.

There are also shows on Friday and matinee’s on both Saturday and Sunday.

Greeting All:

Happy 2012 wherever you may roam.

I am kind of in hibernation as we await the arrival of our second child here in 2 weeks. But being the dork I am, I have one more show planned before the full “Manternity” leave kicks in.

I am really excited (and nervous for early labor) to be a part of the Winter Green Concert Series next Saturday, January 21st.

My Friend Joey Wright will both be opening the show and playing a few numbers with me.

Here is a Facebook Link for the show: CLICK HERE EH
