Dereck Seguin
2025-05-10 19:30 - 23:00 | Meaford Hall, 12 Nelson St E, Meaford, ON, Canada
“Canada’s Top Comic” … Sirius XM
“Undeniably, One of Canada’s Hottest Comedians” … CBC
Derek Seguin’s “Life of Leisure” tour. 18+ Adult content. Derek is one of the most sought after stand-up comedians on the international circuit. He has performed at the prestigious invitation-only Just For Laughs festival an impressive 11 times as well as appearing numerous times at every other major festival in the country, making several television appearances along the way.
At a past Just for Laughs festival, GQ Magazine’s Comedy Editor reported about JFL that: “Montreal-comic Derek Seguin stole one of the most star-studded gala shows last year from host Whitney Cummings. This year, he appeared in The Nasty Show and proceeded to steal that too. A true star and Montreal’s pride and joy.”
The Montreal Gazette enthused that: “Derek Seguin earned a standing ovation for his set during the ninth Just for Laughs gala … had me gasping for air, I was laughing so hard at the detailing of his second date with his Newfoundland girlfriend. … What made it great, however, was not the boldness of his material but that he described it all in such childlike wonder. Brilliant.” He has also appeared on CBC Radio’s, “The Debaters” more than forty times and is one of the show’s fan favourites. Undeniably one of Canada’s hottest comedians, he fittingly walked away with the top prize of Sirius XM’s Canada’s Top Comic competition a few years ago; a contest that spanned the entire country with finalists from every major city.
In March 2021, it was announced that Derek’s latest Album, “PanDerek – 1st Wave” had been nominated for a Juno award. Yet another milestone in an illustrious and hilarious career. Whether he’s ragging on politics or describing life with his children, he brings us into his perspective without preaching any selfish point of view. His undeniable charm makes him simply fun to watch and listen to and is in large part why he is one of Canada’s most “in demand” comedians. The quintessential performer, Derek is a stand-up comedian, actor, host, narrator, voice actor and most importantly, father of 3 beautiful children… and all this, in both English and French (especially the “papa” part). A consummate professional, Derek is at home on stage in a comedy club, conference centre, theatre, arena, school or arts centre. He tailors his sets for all audiences and can work clean or filthy. There is no evening that won’t be livened up by the addition of Derek’s natural charm, honed comedic genius and warm, witty banter.

Flamingos
2025-05-10 19:30 - 23:00 | Heartwood Hall, 939 2nd Ave E, Owen Sound, Ontario, n4k 2h5, Canada
Flamingos: From jukebox oldies and ’70s disco, through pop and rock of the ’80s and ’90s, to early 2000s R&B, the Flamingos will play it all!
Well-known for playing the best hits of the decades, the Flamingos show also features original music. With a freshly released original EP, the band will deliver new songs alongside favourite covers. “Flamingos are not a band to sit still to. They’re great fun and the covers they play bring people back to a particular time in their lives. A dance party inevitably breaks out, so we thought we’d be ready for it.”
Best party band in town” – Spencer Shewen (artistic director Riverfest Elora, Mariposa)
“The tightest, snazziest, most on-brand, colour-coded cover band in the Eastern Standard Time Zone!” – Jonny Dovercourt (Wavelength Music Series)
“They were dressed in pink tuxedos, played pink guitars and even had pink patch cables. Full shtick, fully ridiculous, absolutely fun” – Michael Barclay (national best selling author/ CBC/ Macleans)
Sounds Like: Beatles, Hollies, Beach Boys, Roy Orbison. Genre: 60s English rock.
For the common goal of having a good time, Flamingos are a cover group of bandmates from such acts as Bry Webb’s Providers, Royal Castles, Del Bel, Legato Vipers, and Gregory Pepper’s Problems. Having “read the room” on original music for decades, they were able to find momentum in playing music people want to hear. Now the band has decided to pivot, and tackle making original music that pays homage to the classic bands and eras they know and love.
Quotes from the band that nobody asked for:
“We are not trying to reinvent music. We are, however, imitating giants of music to the best of our very questionable and often limited abilities”
“We are hard to stifle or to suppress. You say we are bald, we find wigs. You say our best years are behind us, we wear costumes”

"The Old Lady Went Along" Senior Migration in the 1800s
2025-05-12 19:00 - 21:00 | Online
Presented by the Bruce County Museum and Cultural Centre
Hosted by the Bruce County Genealogical Society
We all have 19th century examples in our family histories where parents, children and grandparents migrated to, or within, Canada. What was the impact on the aged folk who left their families, and their long-time friends and neighbours? Or the physical stresses from the trip itself and the life they found in the wilderness? Or the impact on the older generation who could not, or would not, make the trip? This talk will tell the stories of Dianne Brydon’s aging ancestors: those who travelled to Canada from Ireland and Scotland; those who moved again for new opportunities, having grown old in Canada; and those who were left behind.

About the Speaker
Dianne Brydon has used skills learned from her Masters in Historical Geography to research her various family histories. She likes nothing more than travelling to archives in the UK, Canada, and the US. There, she sneezed through bundles of dusty documents. The gems she finds help to piece together her ancestors’ colourful stories.
In 2017, Dianne and her father published their family history. The book is titled “The Stalwart Brydons: From Scotland to Galt to Portage La Prairie”. Since then, she has written articles and given talks to family history/genealogy/local history groups in both Scotland and Canada. She is currently President of the British Isles Family History Society of Greater Ottawa.

Gracie Jet is a showstopper. Ever since she was a little girl, she longed to perform. She gave herself the handle “Gracie Jet” because in her own young words, “people need to be able to chant my name.” Now, Jet is an electric performer you can’t take your eyes off. She has played iconic Canadian venues like The Rivoli and The Monarch Tavern and a sold-out single release show at Heartwood Hall. That single, Sway, has gone on to garner international attention from press and radio.
As a songwriter is perhaps where Jet shines her brightest. Like a good friend, her music is there for you when you need it most. Jet’s songs include soaring ballads that tug at the heartstrings and anthemic rock songs that ignite the spirit. Her catalogue is a walk through her memories and experiences, each song its own unique time, place, and emotion. Her work is emotionally transparent in a very refreshing way. She bravely gives all of herself to her songs. They’re intimate, refined and, above all, passionate.

With the release of her debut album Survive in 2025, Jet has no plans of slowing down. Grey Roots is thrilled to present rising star Gracie Jet in a relaxed, acoustic setting that highlights her vocal and songwriting talents.
