Step into an evening of rich harmonies, heartfelt songwriting, and timeless folk traditions.
Jessica Rhaye joins forces with Bill Preeper and Sandy MacKay for a concert that blends Maritime roots with Appalachian soul. Inspired by the folk revival of the 1960s, this trio brings a fresh, contemporary energy to classic traditions.
Their music is built on beautifully woven three-part harmonies, shared lead vocals, and a warm mix of acoustic and electric textures. Think echoes of Greenwich Village, with influences ranging from Woody Guthrie to Ian Tyson and Bob Dylan—yet grounded in something distinctly their own.
Jessica Rhaye, an acclaimed Canadian songwriter with over 25 years of touring and eight albums, leads with clarity and warmth, her high harmonies and shimmering guitar work anchoring the trio’s sound. Bill Preeper’s intricate fingerstyle guitar and deep vocal tones add texture and depth, while Sandy MacKay’s multi-instrumental mastery—upright bass, mandolin, and banjo—brings both rhythm and richness to the stage.
Together, they create something intimate, powerful, and deeply human—a sound often compared to a modern-day Peter, Paul & Mary.
Whether you’re a lifelong folk fan or simply looking for a meaningful night of live music, this concert invites you to slow down, listen closely, and connect.
