Boissevain House Concerts

Home Routes / Chemin Chez Nous National On-line Folk Festival [Winnipeg, March 20, 2020] Home Routes/ Chemin Chez Nous is keeping the music alive by creating th...e Home Routes / Chemin Chez Nous National On-line Folk Festival for all to enjoy. Home Routes will present our Season 13 Artists’ concerts online, via Facebook live and YouTube, in place of the previously scheduled tours. Having to cancel the balance of our Season 13 tours due to COVID-19 left our artists, hosts and patrons wondering what we could do to continue our support of the artists, while keeping our commitment to entertaining our patrons, so we decided to host the artists digitally. This shift to hosting online allows us to present entertainment to an even larger audience, and not have to cancel any shows. To support artists and bring fresh entertainment to folks during this time was an obvious win/win, and doing live streaming concerts has been something we have been talking about for a while, so we decided that this was the perfect time to launch it, says Artistic Director Tim Osmond. Rick Fines was one of our pioneering artists in our very first season in 2007, so it’s only fitting that he kick off our online version too! Instead of touring from house to house, we will present an artist nightly on Home Routes / Chemin Chez Nous Facebook page - presenting a Home Routes / Chemin Chez Nous National On-line Folk Festival. Audiences will be treated to performers who were previously booked to tour rural and urban areas of Canada. Additional programming is being confirmed to continue these HR/CCN National On-line Folk Festival Schedule shows and will be announced as schedules are finalized. The schedule of performers is below, all shows start at 8pm CT, and run for 30 minutes. For financial support in these difficult times, our performers will be sharing a link for patrons to ‘donate now during their live concert, so viewers can pay what they want. By adding this virtual tip jar it will be easy for anyone to support. Confirmed schedule to date is below, with more artists being added daily.

BREAKING NEWS --> Home Routes/ Chemin Chez Nous is keeping the music alive by presenting our Season 13 Artists concerts digitally online, via #faceb...ooklive and #youtube, instead of the previously scheduled tours. Due to the COVID-19 self distancing situation we are all facing, we at Home Routes believe the show must go on and are working with the previously scheduled acts to bring the artists digitally to our patrons, instead of canceling the entire season.
