Two Canadian folk legends whose music careers each date back 40 years will return to the Evergreen Cultural Centre next week.
Valdy and Gary Fjellgaard last played the Coquitlam stage eight years ago to promote their new CD The Contenders Two: Still in the Running, which was released in 2007.
And last year, the pair put out Contenders 3: Off the Floor, an album made up of some of their favourite songs sung acoustically.
To promote the work, the musicians are doing a few tour dates this year, including in Coquitlam on Sunday; however, tickets for their show are selling fast. Call the box office at 604-927-6555 or visit evergreenculturalcentre.ca.
IN BLOOM
Vancouver singer-songwriter Edith Wallace will launch her new double album at the Evergreen Cultural Centre this week.
First Bloom — Wallace's fourth CD that was written following an abrupt break-up two years ago — will be unveiled at her concert on Friday at 8 p.m.
She will be accompanied by musical director and album producer Michael Creber (piano), Jeff Scroggins (banjo), Finn Manniche (cello) and Nathan Aswell (stick bass and vocals).
For tickets at $35, call ECC at 604-927-6555 or visit evergreenculturalcentre.ca.
