Barney Bentall, Tom Taylor & Shari Ulrich
Sunday, Feb. 26 marks the return of one of Gabriola Island’s favourite musical events – an evening with Barney Bentall, Tom Taylor and Shari Ulrich.
This eclectic mix of the character, voices and songwriting talents of these three artists, (or, as someone recently said, two Canadian legends and the number one draft pick!) first played together in November 2007 at a songwriter concert on Bowen Island. They, and the audience, enjoyed the experience so much, almost five years later they’re still thrilled for every opportunity to perform together.
With Barney busy with a variety of projects from his long-standing band, the Legendary Hearts, to the Grand Cariboo Opry and lots of solo shows and recordings in between; Shari touring with her daughter, UHF and the High Bar Gang; and Tom doing shows with his long-running band, She Stole My Beer; it’s been three years since Barney, Tom and Shari graced the stage at the Phoenix Auditorium at The Haven. So audiences can expect plenty of new songs since the release of their CD Live at Cates Hill in 2008. This is a concert you don’t want to miss.
Tickets are available at the ever faithful Artworks and are $22 in advance and $25 at the door.
