Join them for a lively concert with The Bookends on June 8 at 7 PM! This concert will be held in their Summerhouse Pavilion. Enjoy the beauty of an outdoor concert with a blueberry field view, but with a roof over your heads in case it rains! House made food and local beer, and wine will be available to purchase.
From foot-stomping reels to soaring airs, The Bookends bring their audiences along for a truly musical adventure. Drawing on their diverse musical backgrounds to craft a compelling repertoire with distinct arrangements and original compositions, these multi-instrumentalists explore a library of traditional gems and contemporary favourites from the world of Celtic music.
After serendipitously discovering a shared love of music in the fall of 2016, The Bookends began to forge their distinctive sound through countless live shows before releasing a debut album Chapter One in the spring of 2020. Their second album, A Celtic Celebration, released in 2023, was recorded live with the Stratford Symphony Orchestra, and garnered a nomination for the 2024 Canadian Folk Music Awards ‘Traditional Album of the Year’. In August of that same year, The Bookends had the honour of joining internationally acclaimed Canadian artist Loreena McKennitt in a series of performances at select folk festivals in Ontario. Some of these shows were captured for McKennitt’s latest album The Road Back Home, released in the spring of 2024.
