Prairie Troubadour DEL BARBER plays at Grooves January 21st!
Del Barber is back in town for a repeat In-Store Concert at Grooves and a show later on at the London Music Club - here's what it says on www.myspace.com/delbarber:
Born and raised on the prairies, Del Barber has found a new home on stage, winning audiences across Canada and the United States with raw talent and ample doses of charm. In the spirit of legends like Townes Van Zandt, Greg Brown, Emmylou Harris and Steve Earle, Barber dreams new life into old forms with a cutting sense of humour, a hint of cynicism, and songs that span the gulf between the sacred and the profane. This past May, Barber sold out his album release party for his debut, Where the City Ends, at Winnipeg’s Park Theatre. Since its release, the album has been a frequent presence on campus radio stations across Canada. A thoughtful reflection on place and progress, Where the City Ends is the sound of someone who’s fearless, honest and just plain loves his craft. With one foot in the city and the other on the farm, Barber’s music blends the wise sounds of the folk tradition with the earnest meditations of a prairie troubadour. Del was named one of five local artists to watch in 2009 by the University of Winnipeg's student weekly, The Uniter.
