The route follows the forested river trails, lakeside paths and connecting roads through the town of Kincardine. It finishes downtown at Geddes Park.

Camryn Ruthven - Reclaiming the Matriarchs
2026-05-21 18:30 - 21:00 | Grey Roots, 102599 Grey Road 18, Owen Sound, ON, N4K 5N6, Canada
Camryn Ruthven – Reclaiming the Matriarchs
Tending to ancestral embers, Camryn Ruthven (she/her) explores the Gàidhlig lineage through song, with a focus on honouring and reclaiming women’s traditions from the Gàidhealtachd (Scottish Highlands) – from keening grief rituals to work songs and bagpiping trailblazers. She weaves the medicines of earth-centredness and Gàidhlig traditions into her own creative tapestry through songwriting, vocal improvisation, Soundwork, and instrumentation (primarily piano/guitar/bodhrán). Her distinctive vocal style draws its inspirations from the raw, highly-ornamented, earthy qualities of traditional waulking songs and the natural world.
This evening weaves performances of traditional melodies and original compositions with story-sharing and research, offering a glimpse into the various facets of women’s lives, work, social roles, and music in the Scottish Highlands.

Leeroy Stagger
2026-05-20 17:30 - 21:00 | Studio 79, Blue Mountain, Ontario, Canada
Please join us in welcoming the beloved, award-winning singer-songwriter, producer and master storyteller Leeroy Stagger, as he returns for yet another lilac session – live on the studio stage, with his trio Ryland Moranz and Tyler Lieb.
​
Why a lilac session? Simply put, my lilacs will be out.🪻And Leeroy & Ryland like lilacs.
Stylistically, his music moves between folk roots and rocknroll. His music is written through the lens of a spiritual path through addiction and recovery; he cuts a trail through the human condition in only a way that a veteran observational traveller and artist can.
He has supported and toured with Steve Earle, Josh Ritter, Buffy Sainte Marie, Frazey Ford, The Pixies, Modest Mouse, Los Lobos, The Drive-By Truckers, Jason Isbell, and more.
He is just as at home in a cafe with an audience of 40 (that’s us!!!) as he is on a festival stage with an audience of 10,000.
Limited tickets for this up close & intimate live music performance & artist interaction
Leeroy Stagger and His Trio.
