Support https://thebombadils.bandcamp.com/m/livestream-contribution Join The Bombadils, Halifax-based folk/bluegrass/songwriter duo who deliver "folk tunes done with musical adventure and sophistication. - Audiences will enjoy an uplifting evening of traditional folk songs, fresh originals, intricate instrumental playing, and sweet harmony singing that is sure to both comfort and tug at the heartstrings - an "enchanting folk romp". About The Bombadils: Canadian Folk Music... Award nominees The Bombadils are Luke Fraser and Sarah Frank, a vibrant husband and wife duo playing traditional and original tunes with front porch style and classical grace. Drawing from Canadian, American, and Celtic traditions, the two pour the spirit of story-telling and kitchen parties into their own writing. Luke brings guitar, mandolin, and home-grown east coast vocals in harmony with Sarah’s sweet but powerful singing, lyrical fiddle playing, and claw-hammer banjo. The Bombadils met in 2009 while training classically at McGill University in Montreal, QC, initially performing as a five-piece Irish pub band as a fun way to break up their studies. They released their first album, Fill Your Boots! (2012) and in the years to follow, went on tour throughout Canada, the US, Australia, New Zealand, and Europe. In 2015 they released their second album, Grassy Roads, Wandering Feet, quickly followed by "New Shoes" in 2016 which was nominated for two Canadian Folk Music Awards and won Folk Music Ontario's Album of the Year award.
