Take a trip from Newfoundland to Paris with the music and insight of folk musician Lorne Warr April 17 at the Britannia Heritage Shipyards.
Warr hails from Lewisporte, Nfld. He's a singer/songwriter who sings songs and tells stories of the human experience, drawing inspiration from many diverse sources, such as Newfoundland folklore, life on the road, the birth of a daughter, and his own history of schooners and working the high steel in New York.
He takes his audience on a journey, from the past to the future, from Newfoundland to Paris, from poignancy to hope, from loneliness to joy, and brings it all together with a foot stomping jig.
Accompanied by some of Canada's finest musicians, inspired by traditional music, causing a stir from one coast to another, and
influenced and compared to contemporary songwriter's like Gordon Lightfoot and Stan Rogers, Warr is anticipated to be a tour de force on the Canadian folk scene for years to come.
