The Salmon Arm Folk Music Society is pleased to announce the return of Canadian folk stars The Small Glories to Salmon Arm for a concert appearance on Friday March 1 Nexus On First.

The Small Glories are Cara Luft and JD Edwards and it has been four years since this dynamic duo played our festival, just a year after they teamed up in Winnipeg.

Fast forward five years and the two have played hundreds of shows, and received resounding raves for their latest recorded work Wondrous Traveler, and their inspired live shows.

Having played most major festivals and numerous concert dates in their homeland, and many in the U.S. and the U.K., Luft, who was a founding member of The Wailin’ Jennys, and Edwards, who worked in Dry Bones with Nathan Rogers and Leonard Podolak, are sure to wow North Shuswap audiences again, in this overdue return.

Greil Marcus, the dean of American roots music journalism wrote,” The Small Glories have a musical chemistry that is both connected and tight, but one that allows their distinct personalities to shine through, resulting in a live show that is as heartwarming as it is hilarious, as finger-picking proficient as it is relatable, and as Canadian as, well… it’s very Canadian. But that hasn’t stopped them from winning over audiences from Nashville to the Australian outback.”
