"My favourite folkestra – The Gertrudes"
Charles Spearin (Broken Social Scene)

Last Summer I praised the stylings and tones of a Kingston band by the name of The Gertrudes; again in November I brought mention of their presence at Carden Street Cafe - a double whammy if you will. Well folks, once more I excitedly write to you in announcement of their return to our area.

This Friday (August 19) at the Victoria Park Boathouse in Kitchener, 9:00pm, the band will be gathering to showcase their talents and folk-inspired joie de vie as they gear up for the release of their third album 'Til The Morning Shows Her Face To Me. If their previous sets, their website teasers and the memory I have of the live and emotional "Carolina" performance from Carden Street have anything to say as testament to their brand, I can guarantee you this evening out will be more than just a little worth your time.

Hope to see you all there, and don't hesitate to check out their website at
