Harrison – Sarah Jane Scouten returns to Harrison Saturday, Nov 3rd at 8:00pm at Harrison Memorial Hall. Tickets: $25.00 (kids under 12 are free)
With flavours of Lucinda Williams, Nanci Griffiths and Iris Dement and a wealth of early country music, the three-time Canadian Folk Music Award nominee and Western Canadian Music Award nominee’s songs are faithful to a long-standing folk music tradition.
Often spilling over into modern themes that are outspoken and edgy, her songwriting tackles issues from poverty and midwifery to tongue-in-cheek heartache songs and unabashed Canadiana.
A traditionalist at heart, Sarah Jane Scouten shows her signature flair for the roots of roots music.
With respect for these roots, she writes from her own perspective, playing with style to create her own distinct voice.
This songwriter is known for hitting hard and close to home, then laughing it off.
