Hi,

Hughs Room www.hughsroom.com is a great Folk venue in Toronto-excellent acoustics and a great vibe.. In early March both the Ennis Sisters and David Francey are performing there. The Ennis Sisters are a Newfoundland /Iriswh / celtic -influenced folk / pop sounding group -very good; and David Francey is an excellent songwriter with a great voice.

Also check out the Acoustic Harvest Folk Club -an intimate little venue with a good sound.

cheers

Jerry

Get tickets for the Francey show at Hughs Room ASAP-he is touring with Craig Werth, an amazing composer/accomplished musician from New Hampshire and they are getting superb reviews on the western leg of their tour. The foods good, too.
