Hi Friends,

Hope you are well! I would like to invite you to my next live music performance taking place:
Tuesday, December 6th at Rancho Relaxo, 9 PM.

I expect this will be a very special night as The Brothers Elliott and I have been invited to open for a Calgary based band called Raleigh. I am super excited to welcome this Alberta trio like a warm chinook wind!

Raleigh Biography
Raleigh is the labour of love of Calgary based musicians Brock Geiger (of The Dudes & Dojo Workhorse), Matt Doherty (of Axis of Conversation & This City Defects) and Clea Anaïs (of the Consonant C & Dojo Workhorse). The collaboration between Geiger and Anaïs dates back to 2009, playing on each others' solo records and touring across Canada. Each of them have won Calgary Folk Festival Songwriting Contest prizes and have also been featured in the Trans Canada Alberta Songwriters Series. The addition of Doherty on drums in the winter of 2010 added a new dimension to the already intriguing nuances created by Anaïs and Geiger's melodically driven, folk-minded songs.

If you can make it, we will be so glad to see you!

Best,
Holly

Hi Friends,

A special thanks to Lucia Graca, Scott Tavener and their Analogue Gallery team for hosting us!

In other news, a Calgary band called Raleigh contacted me to open for their Toronto show in December. So I am excited to announce that my next performance is taking place on Tuesday, December 6th at Rancho Relaxo - details still to be announced. If you can come, it will be great to see you!

Warm Regards,
Holly
