A transatlantic co-headline UK tour from two of the biggest names from
the culture-rich maritime province of Canada.
The Ennis Sisters have grown up and gone through a number of phases and musical
explorations together. Their latest album, Stages, is a return to their roots – singing
contemporary folk songs with a traditional Irish Newfoundland twist. The trio are excited to
be heading to the UK in Feb / March 2018 with fellow award winning Canadian Dave
Gunning. With this double bill you can expect an entertaining evening of the best of East
Coast Canadian Folk.
With multiple accolades – a Juno Award, SOCAN Award, multiple East Coast Music
Awards, and Music Newfoundland and Labrador Awards, The Ennis Sisters, comprised of
Maureen, Teresa and Karen Ennis, are world renowned, celebrated songbirds.
Dave Gunning’s recording career is now approaching full two decades in length (his
debut album, Lost Tracks, came out in 1996). Along with richly deserved peer respect, he
has also earned a shelf full of music industry awards. That tally now stands at eight East
Coast Music Awards and two Canadian Folk Music Awards, plus a 2012 Juno Award
nomination in the Roots & Traditional Solo Album of the Year category.
His impressive songwriting skill has also been internationally recognised, with earlier tunes
scoring victories and high placing in some major international songwriting competitions.
