WESTFORD — The following event release was shared by the Parish Center for the Arts for publication.
On April 12, back by popular demand are Cynthia MacLeod and Gordon Belsher. MacLeod is one of Prince Edward Island’s finest ambassadors of traditional music carving a distinct style of fiddling that embraces both her local roots and her ancestral connection to the Scottish highlands. Gordon Belsher has been performing in Canada and around the world for more than 40 years and is a fixture of the Prince Edward Island music scene. Do not miss your chance to catch this upbeat show that’ll keep your toes tappin’, your heels clickin’ and your body completely unable to stay still! Last year was a sell-out success! https://parisharts.square.site/product/4-12-24-cynthia-macleod-with-gordon-belsher/158
Winning awards and playing to sold-out shows across New England and beyond, the Boston-based Delta Generators have made quite a name for themselves since hitting the scene in 2008. Their music brings together their diverse musical influences, drawing on the traditions of Blues, Roots, R&B, Americana and Rock to create a sound uniquely their own. They’ll be at the PCA on April 13. https://parisharts.square.site/product/delta-generators/109.
