MacLean Park Music Free Outdoor Concert: Lyndsay Wills & the No Frills Band, Mizz Lisa, & Sinéad X Sanders

Sun, July 26 |

  • 2:00 PM |
  • 5:00 PM

2:00 PM – Lyndsay Wills & the No Frills Band: Lyndsay Wills and the No Frills String Band are a Vancouver based old-time band made up of Mike Gix on fiddle, Kate Semple on mandolin and banjo and Lyndsay Wills on vocals and guitar. Playing old-time fiddle tunes that are sometimes tagged onto Lyndsay’s original songs, they are frequently found at the local farmer’s markets, rain or shine. Playing at the odd coffee house gig or private functions keeps them happy and gets everyone’s toes tapping.

 

3:05 PM – Mizz Lisa: Mizz Lisa (Lisa Le Blanc) whisks you from a Parisian Cafe to a New Orleans Riverboat. Her sultry vocals, zydeco stylings and original songs will have you tearing up the dancefloor, letting the good times roll!

 

 

4:10 PM – Sinéad X Sanders “is like a ghost from a simpler time…which, given the wretched state of the world today, is seriously high praise.” – The Georgia Straight ••• Raised on jukebox-era rock & roll, blues, R&B, country, jazz and punk, Sinéad X Sanders cut her teeth playing various stages around her hometown of Vancouver. Compared to the likes of Wanda Jackson, Billie Holiday and Lucinda Williams, her sound remains uniquely her own. Having rounded up some of the city’s top players, her long-awaited full-band debut THEM SHADOWS was released at year’s end to a sold-out crowd at the Wise Hall.
