Les Productions le Moulin présentent un large éventail de concerts depuis 20 ans et la plupart d'entre eux sont du type à plaire à quiconque se présente avec un esprit à moitié ouvert. Voici les informations à connaître pour le prochain. Ça sera fabuleux. Comme pour beaucoup de nos spectacles, il s'agira probablement d'une occasion rare d'assister à un artiste ou groupe de classe mondiale puisque ce groupe de la côte ouest ne viendra peut-être plus jamais aussi loin à l'est.
Le Moulin présente John Reischman (johnreischman.com) and the Jaybirds (thejaybirds.com), un groupe de la côte ouest que nous avons présenté le 31 mars 2012. C’est le premier retour des Jaybirds dans l’est depuis ce temps là et le groupe donnera que cinq concerts dans les Maritimes.
Où: Le Richelieu, La Butte
Quand: le mercredi (Wednesday) le 14 mai de 7:30 à 9:30
Billets: 35$ à Saulnierville Pharmacy; Meteghan Centre Pharmacy; Weymouth Pharmacy; Yvon ou Marilyn Comeau: (902) 769-3309; paulemilecomeau@gmail.com
C’est un groupe de musique bluegrass à la mode, qui mélange des chansons et des pièces instrumentales originales avec la musique des Appalaches pour créer un son unique. Aujourd'hui dans leur 20e année, le groupe a sorti sept albums acclamés et a reçu deux nominations aux Juno.
John Reischman a sorti 3 albums instrumentaux solo acclamés par la critique. Il a joué sur un album récompensé par un Grammy. Il a sorti 3 albums en duo avec le guitariste John Miller. John Reischman a commencé dans la région de San Francisco avec le groupe de bluegrass Good Ol' Persons et il a été membre du Tony Rice Unit. Il s'est installé à Vancouver au début des années 90 et a formé les Jaybirds en 1999.

“One of the world’s undisputed masters of the mandolin, famed for outstanding tone and taste.” –Bluegrass Unlimited
“…It is also a bluegrass album that should appeal to much more than hard-core fans of that genre.” –P-E Comeau, review of first album in Dirty Linen #101, 2002
Folk Radio UK said the “On That Other Green Shore album showcases an accomplished, experienced band at the peak of their powers, with musicianship of the very highest order.”
Peghead Nation called it “one of the most beguiling bluegrass-rooted recordings of 2017.”
Los Angeles, CA-based guitarist Patrick Sauber has played with, among others, Doc Watson, Richard Greene, John Jorgensen, Peter Rowan, Tim O’Brien and John Fogerty. He played on a Grammy-nominated album, and appeared in the film A Mighty Wind.
Chilliwack, BC-based Trisha Gagnon has been described by Sing Out! as “one of the most versatile” and “irresistible” lead vocalists in bluegrass. Trisha anchors what Dirty Linen magazine calls “gorgeous three-part harmonies.” Her solo album includes guests Vince Gill and Peter Rowan.
Nanaimo, BC-based Nick Hornbuckle plays with a two-finger roll unlike other contemporary banjo players. “Nick Hornbuckle’s banjo can be downright spine-tingling,” said the L.A Daily News. His solo album 12×2 (+/-1), was nominated for a Canadian Folk Music Award in 2015.
Spokane, WA-based Greg Spatz was hailed as a “world-class bluegrass fiddler” by Fiddler Magazine. Audiophile Audition says Greg’s “virtuosic playing is flawlessly delivered time after time,” while Bluegrass Unlimited says he “lays down some seriously fine bluegrass fiddle”. He’s also an award-winning novelist.
Here is a little-known video of the band singing Lennon and McCartney’s “Two of Us” (youtube) from the Beatles’ Let it Be album.
