Transforming string music into intricate, beautiful, high-energy arrangements, Canada’s The Fretless have become flawless musical acrobats and Juno award winners.” - Martin Hutchinson, Progradar THE FRETLESS is a multi-award winning Canadian ensemble playing an essential part in the emerging movement mainstreaming traditional music through its transformation of the usual rhythmic, harmonic and structured arrangements of fiddle styles from around the world. Whether performing at prominent concert halls or at renowned festivals, The Fretless is pushing traditional music to a new place. The band will be joined by special guest vocalist, Winnipeg’s Madeleine Roger. When describing Madeleine, Terry David Mulligan had this to say, ‘Many years ago, I shared a kitchen table and living room with Joni Mitchell who sang songs and wrote words on paper. I got goosebumps listening to those words and songs. A lifetime later and I’m getting the same goosebumps from Winnipeg’s Madeleine Roger. An evening not to be missed!
