(Anne Narejko photo) Women Today bring Heather Bishop to Blyth BLYTH - Heather Bishop has a powerful voice that delivers a powerful message. She recently celebrated the beginning of her se- cond decade as a performer by releasing her sixth album, A Taste Of The Blues. Heather's concerts always provide a rich texture of different styles - from blues, to comtemporary folk, to rock, to country and western. Women 'Today is pleased to be sponsoring Heather Bishop's performance in Huron County. Her music has become popular in the area from her performance at women's conferences such as Rural Women and Men- tal Health and the Turning Point Con- ference. Heather has also performed at the Summerfolk Folk Festival in Owen Sound. Heather's song They came for love is the theme song on the video produced by the Concerned Farm Women in Bruce County. Reviewers have highlighted Heather Bishop's "rich, belt -'em -out vocals", and her "powerful rhythm guitar'', her "gutsy delivery". She is a performer who is necessarily political, but who is uniquely entertaining as well. When Heather Bishop is joined by bass player, Kris Purdy, and guitarist, Sherry Shute, there comes a synthesis of talents that exhilarates, challenges, and always entertains. For them it's great to perform Ken & Madelon Maloney 5 CANADIAN FORESTERS COURT BENMILLER Presents...
