More importantly though,
the journey has led down
many musical roads less
often taken - roads that have
led to kitchen fiddle parties
in remote maritime villages;
to hymn -sings on old -order
Mennonite farms; to tradi-
tional Metis dances in Mani-
toba to African drum ses-
sions in downtown Toronto.
In this special concert Ian
and Anne will take you along
down some of these roads
with and evening of songs,
stories and instrumental
music, some traditional -
some original. Many of these
songs can be heard on the
dozen CDs they have
recorded over the years, but

together with two unique
stories - of their lives in folk
music, spanning almost four
decades.
Anne and Ian are both
powerful singers and instru-
mentalists (fiddle, button
accordion, guitar, harmonica
and more), but finding and
sharing little-known musical
traditions and stories has
been an important part of
what they do from the very
beginning. Anne spent years
collecting and studying
Metis and other fiddle tradi-
tions while Ian worked as the
curator of a number of com-
munity museums in Ontario.
In the 1980s Anne and Ian
provided music for and
occasionally appeared on
the hit TV series Road to
Avonlea. Both have also
worked in the theatre, most
notably Anne, at
the Blyth Festival.
Thus the Blyth Memorial
Hall seemed like a perfect
setting for this concert. They
will also be joined by mem-
bers of the BlythFestival
Singers for a couple of songs.
The concert is being
videoed by Lock 3 Media
who are best known for
the Ontario Visual Herit-
age documentaries (TVO)
and the critically
acclaimed War of 1812
miniseries A Desert
Between Us and Them.
