From 10am-noon, Natalie Inga & Alex Klipper explore all aspects of what Folk Music can be. Both are active in several Calgary bands, ranging across genres from Funk & Soul to Roots & Bluegrass. They`re taking the Calgary scene by storm! As a duo, the two artists accentuate each other`s songwriting through fun instrumentation and harmonies. Alex & Natalie, wielding guitars, a banjo, and occasionally even a saxophone, are two of Calgary`s most thoughtful and silly songwriters and performers. Come and enjoy their artistry and humour onstage!
From noon-2pm, enjoy some Flamenco! Honey Sturdy is a British-born, Canadian-raised Flamenco dancer, guitarist, singer, songwriter, castanet player, percussionist, and flautist. Trained in Flamenco dance in Madrid, Granada and Seville, Spain, she`s performed at many venues and festivals locally, as well as worldwide, in places such as Edinburgh, Granada, Spain, and Bristol. She’ll be bringing the heat, so come and let the music move you!
