Darran Poole & Rootbone - April 21

Juno Award Winner!

Don't miss this band!!!!

Description:Hamilton-based RootBone is the creation of Juno Award winning guitarist Darran Poole, formerly part of the acclaimed Canadian blues band Fathead, and accomplished poet and percussionist Bobbi Richards. To round out the band they brought in veteran musicians Bob “Omar” Tunnoch (Fathead) on bass and Jim Casson (Downchild) on drums. The creative output of this dynamic team is captured in their debut release titled “The Long Road Home”. RootBone’s music is focused on inspired songwriting that incorporates elements of rockabilly, funk, rock n roll, and folk into a blues framework. RootBone has created a fresh sound that is immediately recognizable as their own. The name RootBone is a nod to the different styles that fall under the “Roots” umbrella creating a framework that will allow the band the freedom to move and change as they progress.

The Veterans Corner

Hello My name is Laura Oros and I live in Waterdown. I just want to say a little thank you for something.

My young son Daniel bought flowers for the 2017 Remembrance Day Service and as everyonewas laying a wreath he walked out of the group and chose to lay a bouquet at the little sapling for those who were at Vimy. He was amazed at the sapling and wanted to pay respect to the memory.

Every day we drive by and notice they have weathered the cold winter and are still there. He says it is symbolic of how those who served never gave up and battled through bloody fighting for us.
So I wanted to say thank you for leaving them there, you may not have even noticed but we have seen them and feel gratitude daily. You made a young lad very happy.
Kindest,Laura Oros
