About this event

Po Cholly; Charlie Robertson | www.reverbnation.com/pocholly

Your performer/host, Charlie has been an itinerant bluesman for 50 years,

traveling the globe, hosting concerts and conducting workshops. He is well-known

for his blues harp styles, slide guitar and traditional blues. He has played with the

Gypsy Kings in France, tango bands in Argentina, reggae players in Jamaica, and

flamenco dancers in Spain, where his passion for the blues has always erased

national and political borders and brought strange bedfellows together to share

the music.

Beverlie Robertson | www.reverbnation.com/beverlierobertson

As a member of the trio The Chanteclairs, Beverlie travelled widely and performed

at festivals such as the Mariposa Folk Festival, the Fredericton Jazz & Blues

Festival, and at venues from The Riverboat to Massey Hall, Maple Leaf Gardens

and the CNE Grandstand. She played on the CBC, CTV, BBC, US and European TV

networks. She grew up with the New Orleans and Tin Pan Alley blues played by

the many jazz and blues artists who came to her parents’ home after gigs. Peter

Gzowski called her a pioneer in Canadian music. Her latest book is “With Knowing

Eyes; Canadian Women in Song”.
