Photos from Edmonton

A few pictures I snapped on my trip - mostly Folk Fest. This is the hill in front of mainstage on Wednesday night - tons of music fans!
My lovely friend Helen - office manager, pianist, teacher, accompanist, excellent cook, great sense of adventure, kind....gee does this sound like a personal ad? She keeps everything cool, calm and collected.
Sarah MacLachlin

Scottish group Breabach in the Backstage area, rehearsing...

Looking towards downtown...

A wonderful singer/songwriter Chuck Brodsky who sang a poignant tune called "Lili's Braids" - those same braids hang in the Holocaust museum in Israel....he was on one of the "workshop" stages.

The gentleman in black is Ben Sures - whom I've written about before - enjoyed listening to his album " Field Guide to Loneliness" - it also has great cover art...which is a lost art in itself.

This lady is the ethereal, exquisite Eivor - one of my favourite people at the Fest...

Can't wait to listen to her album...
