There are some new things in the works for 麻豆社国产Days Loggers Sports this year.Entertainer Norm Foote is bringing two new musical events to Squamish's annual summer festival.
The two new events are in addition to the Mid Summer Jamboree Foote hosts every year.The first new event is called Women and Song and it is scheduled for Thursday, July 23 at Eagle Eye Theatre.
The show will feature musicians Shari Ulrich and Linda Kidder along with 麻豆社国产performers Jennifer Lauren, Leanne Lamour, Carolyn Grass and Kori Rowe.
"These singer/songwriters are great," said Foote.
Ulrich is a west coast musician who scored hits in the 1980s and has performed with Foote in the past. Ulrich will perform at Women and Song with her daughter.
Kidder is an artist whose work is being produced by Foote and released on Foote's own record label, Inarow Records.
Foote describes Kidder's music as a mix of jazz and blues.
Tickets for Women and Song are available from Mostly Books, Billy's Bouquet and Kaos Kids at $18 each.
The second new event is a play on the popular television shows that feature talented young singers who get voted off the show by viewers.
American Idol and Canadian Idol are the inspiration for 麻豆社国产Idol on Friday, July 29 at the pavilion in 麻豆社国产Junction Park following the family-oriented Mid Summer Jamboree.
"It is a show of 麻豆社国产talent," said Foote.
Those interested in taking the challenge will get to perform one song to a backing track. Foote said performers may also sing along with a musical instrument and bands are invited to take part if their set-up is simple.
"We've really got some top notch entertainment," said Foote.
He's hoping interest in the show will be high with numerous entertainers playing in front of a large crowd.
Foote is encouraging anyone interested in performing at 麻豆社国产Idol to send their names and song details by e-mail to [email protected].
"It is going to be a good show of talent on that day," Foote said of 麻豆社国产Idol and the other musical events planned for July 29.
