Event information

Bad ideas, VCRs, crumbling factories, terrible therapists, hairy dogs, wrinkled shirts, French fries, questionable tattoos...all are fair game for Nova Scotian funeral director-turned-songwriter Terra Spencer. Merging Canadian folk storytelling with ‘70s warmth, the songs are good ones, judging from the accolades her four albums have received. Terra’s new self-produced fourth album, 'Sunset', tied with Julian Taylor’s ‘Pathways’ for the 2024 Penguin Eggs Roots Canada Album of the Year, and Terra received 2024 East Coast Music Award nominations for Folk Release, Roots Release, and Songwriter of the Year. ‘Sunset’ features guests from east to west, including Matt Andersen, The Bombadils, and Stephen Fearing, with songs spanning big band blues to string band folk. Although her butterscotch voice, deft fingerstyle guitar, and gospel-charged piano make her a formidable musician, it's her onstage ease and crackling homespun wit that make each show feel like a knee-to-knee conversation in a room of 5 or 500. “The real deal.” - Ron Sexsmith
