CONOR GAINS BAND
CHARMS THE COVE CROWD
Young singer/songwriter/guitar phenom CONOR GAINS and his band from Cambridge ON put on a powerful and captivating show at BLUES ON THE RIDEAU at THE COVE INN, Westport last Friday. The 2012 Maple Blues Award nominee for Best New Artist Of The Year didn't disappoint. It's hard to believe that an artist so young has achieved such a high level of guitar mastery, writes such great songs and sings the Blues so well. It's like an old Blues soul inside a young body. The crowd loved the Show particularly when he did a walkabout around the room during one of the songs. The audience was a little smaller than normal which is a real shame. Come on people - you're missing some of the best Blues artists in Canada performing LIVE every month at this Series and it takes place in a comfortable, friendly, cozy room - where Blues is best heard. |
